Had my sleeve done yesterday, 4/4/16. Before I left my house, I weighed 234 lbs. Just got home today and I now weigh 242 lbs. Is this normal? Is it Water weight?! Kinda freaked out at the moment! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Had my three week follow up appt and have lost 18lbs! So excited and anxious to keep the scale moving. Already experienced my first stall during week 2 which I thought was early, but it's moving again. Plain Water is still a problem for me but I'm told it will get better with time. Good luck to all of you future sleevers! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I found mine at WalMart in the pharmacy section near the area where the Protein bars are. They actually have different flavors. https://www.atkins.com/products/atkins-lift-protein-bars-drinks/protein-drinks/lift-orange-flavored-protein-drink Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Sleeved today, April 7!

Postop day 2 was horrible for me. Stay on top of your pain medicine every 4 hours. It will get better! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
If the stomach becomes overloaded, particularly if it contains too much liquid, food passes too quickly into the intestines. The rush of too much food into the upper intestine may cause nausea, cramping, diarrhea, dizziness and fatigue. http://www.laparoscopic.md/sleeve/what-digestive-changes-occur-after-gastric-sleeve-surgery

Agreed! Just told my hubby that this morning. I was sleeved on 4/4 and told him whoever thinks this is the easy way out is sadly mistaken! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

How long before a BM? 9 days post op
mln74 replied to RellaBelle's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My post op instructions said to expect not to have a BM for 2-10 days. I wouldn't stress just yet. Your intake has been low and Fluid only. I'm sure you're going to be fine! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

By the way, surgery went well. First two hours were rough but I got up and got moving. It really paid off. I was doing laps by the third hour and walking every two hours. No nausea whatsoever. Also found Atkins Lift Protein drink at Wal-Mart. Water with 20g of protein! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
