how long did it take to heal
LifeIsAllGood replied to nana perez's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I had gastric sleeve surgery 4/12 and left next day. I started walking a few hours after recovery while in hospital and haven't stopped since. I walk about 4 to 5 miles daily and bought a Fitbit 2 so I make sure I'm over 10000 steps daily. I didn't have any side effects but I still can't really hold food in me even if it's soft etc. And it took me 3 days to poop and I have to take stool softener to help me get going -
I'm getting weighed again on 6/5 and I'm nervous because last time I checked my weight was 5/4 at first post-op visit and I had already lost 41 pounds. It's one of those things we all go through and I know you'll be fine
-
I was scared about stretching my stomach from liquids also but you're fine and some of us still can only manage liquid intake better than any foods

Eating to little
LifeIsAllGood replied to crawford8903's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I really haven't had an appetite since my surgery 4/12 so I got a Fitbit 2 and I log my protein intake which is good finally and whatever I can eat. I'm a oddball because I don't do anything dairy so I have a hard time getting food in my body -
Finally did a full protein day

I'm going to buy some Flintstones ASAP because my NUT said no but I'm hearing good things about Flintstones..... that's why I love this site because we really support each other -
I Got Approved and My Surgery Date!
LifeIsAllGood replied to Misha42000's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Congrats on your journey -
I went cold turkey with cigars two weeks prior because my surgery came about two weeks after my approval so I did a total month cold turkey because my test was right before my package was submitted and I passed. I also vap but I like to puff cigars still

It's crazy when someone you used to date has problems with you losing weight because they're worried about you finding someone better... I'm sure I'm not the only one going through this

LifeIsAllGood replied to LifeIsAllGood's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm sorry you're going through that. I really haven't had a appetite since my surgery but I'm finding way to taste food even if I can barely hold anything in. Walking has been my relief and I hate that I paid for those chewable multivitamins YUCK!!! They actually make me nauseous -

LifeIsAllGood replied to LifeIsAllGood's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Those chewables suck and I'm glad I hear how people switched and doing well without doing chewables like they recommend -

Finally did a full protein day
LifeIsAllGood replied to LifeIsAllGood's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The only protein I use is Syntrax nectar protein because the isopure I have is unflavored and I can only drink it using orange juice. I have bad taste buds and almond milk etc sickens me -

LifeIsAllGood replied to LifeIsAllGood's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
No you're doing way better then me!!! I think it is 68 grams I just had to double dose to finally get in that much and I don't do shakes cause I hate dairy....my drinks are watered down -

Checking Weight
LifeIsAllGood replied to LifeIsAllGood's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yeah that's my fear it happened in the beginning after surgery so I just stopped checking -

I feel the same way waiting to see what next month brings. I just hope walking 4 to 5 miles a day isn't a bad thing for me
