My dr said 640z all together I think, and he said count the popsickles, and the water and protein all together

I'm 7 days out and won't start puréed stage till Monday. I can honestly say I've gotten very little protein in. I have to find a way to change it BUT it's super difficult because I hate the taste of protein drinks and the Greek yogurt makes me want to throw up. Sugar free popsickles mixed with water and ice has been my go to but I need to do better

I'm not sure, but I keep hearing that gallstones are very common with rapid weight loss rather surgery or not. I think your symptoms could be that but keep us updated

Speedy recovery to you! Sorry to hear about your experience that is super scary

Did they check for gallstones? Go to your dr asap

I'm just super excited to be able to walk the strip at the beach and not suffer from back pain and low energy! This will be the first summer in 6 years that i will be a healthy weight and I am so excited

Yes, whatever it was I NEVER wanna feel it again lol! I'm def taking my water/liquids in super slowly from here on out and ensure my meds r spread far apart

Thank you! I have to keep all of that in mind.

I think the first thing is to start tracking what you eat again! Many people have relapses so don't beat yourself up to much, you have already made such great stride don't give up

Thank you best wishes to you as well.

Yes, same! I just am disgusted at thought of consuming protein.

Hi I was sleeved on 3/13 also! My dr has me on liquid diet until two weeks out. I haven't been consuming the recommended protein but I try! I also try to get at least a 20g yogurt in but it usually takes me two days for that and I was on whey protein but just switched to premier. Last weigh in at my Preop was 237 (with heels and clothes on) this morning i was 217. I know I've lost abt two pds a day since 3/13

Everything was fine but I threw up tonight and so now I don't feel so well. I think I mixed to many things together, protein drink, pop sickle, pills, unsweet tea. Never again lol

I am now 6 days post op, tommorow makes 1 week. 🎉 I had a c-section & never felt this much pain, so I do regret it when I'm wanting to down a bottle of water or when the incision pulling pain happens BUT I do not regret it! I know that in few months, I'll say it was best decision I have ever made. The good thing is pain is temporary and soon I'll be back to the old me.

I have that pain whee main incision is on right side...but mines has been there since my procedure which was on 3/13/17. Try to take it as easy as possible & follow up with ur Doc

I notice I feel that pain if I swallow to much at on e

I'm five days post op and will be able to eat puréed/soft foods at two week mark. Sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, Redford beans, mild cheese, and hopefully slim fast meal replacements will b okay. I currently have the whey protein and it makes me legit almost vomit, literally living off of abt 20g of protein a day from yogurt. I have no apetite and have to remind myself to sip on the nasty rote in rink or have a spoonful of yogurt or a few sips of broth.

I'm vee and I was sleeved on 3/13. I've dropped at least 10 pds since my procedure and am on liquids for two weeks. I've been having a hard time with the protein drinks and most days I have 20grams of protein barely. I'm never hungry so I try and remind myself to sip and move! Can't wait to move on to puréed! In week

Congrats to you I'm 5 days post op everything went well, having pain where main incision was placed. I do know of certain counseling support groups but that's about it.

I'm an hr away from norfolk, I had my procedure down there

I feel hopeful that's it will subside, my pain is where I'm guessing the main incision was placed , definite tugging/pulling feeling when I get up and even when I sit in an upright position. I can't wait to be able to feel normal again!

MY final straw was seeeing a picture of myself and I was so disgusted at how big I was! My daughter who is only 5 always asked "mommy can you be like adens mom, she's healthy and runs".

I'm in VA! Today is five days post op and I'm down 8-10 pds . So ready to be over liquid phase, I hate the protein shakes

Oh that is so disappointing! Hang in there though

Where r u located? It's definitely huge adjustment but luckily my mom came up and has been staying with me to help with my house lol, I only have strength to walk around few times a hr and lay back down
