pyepez replied to kakatlady612's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That’s amazing!! I’m thinking of opening a February sleeve Facebook page so we can kind of all be able to share pics ideas and feelings? Would you guys be interested? My friend did one for September sleeves and I’m part of it but they are on a whole other level. Lol -

Hungry and Full at the Same Time??

It’s acid! You are full but acid feels like hunger! Make sure you’re taking antacid -

Hope these new proteins work out! You’re doing great 30lbs down! Have you tried wearing under armor body suits to hold u in? They could help too! -
9 months post op, 105 pounds down feeling great!
pyepez replied to Lovelyladybee's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
That’s great! Did you work out or you just have good skin? -
Good luck
-
Yes that’s why I suggested making smoothie with it and different flavors
-
Have you tried premiere protein shakes? Have one for breakfast lunch and dinner and water. Advice is buy different flavors, blend with ice or even make smoothie with them adding spinach almond butter banana blend till very smooth

No Weight Loss--like at all
pyepez replied to dthree123's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You might not be ready for all those calories and soft food! I can only tolerate protein shakes and soups. I was sleeved 2/26. I do green smoothies breakfast and dinner to add spinach and kale and fruits and lunch soup or refried beans but like 2-3oz. If you’re feeling pain like that it’s either too fast or too much. Good luck! It’s all a learning process. -

I’m just doing purée for now. Refried beans, soups. I’m not doing potatoes because I’m scared to fall into carbs again. I’ve been actually tolerating food well. Very slowly tho it takes me 45 min to complete a portion of 2-3 oz. good luck -

Hi! I was also sleeved 2/26, I just started purée phase yesterday! How are you on soft food phase already? How long did you do purée? I’m so confused with starting purée phase! Make sure you’re getting enough water. -

Hi ! Sleeve 2/26! I’m still home from work because I’m a teacher and on my feet all day. How long did everyone wait to go back to work and start working out? I feel like people are doing so much more. I feel so tired. I haven’t weighed myself, waiting for post op on Friday -

I am also 2/26! Have the same pain. And had same bathroom problems, milk of magnesium and colace and really try to get water in! -
I have a lot of incision pain. Some gas. Have been walking indoors because i Love 3 floor walk up. I feel very tired. How long did it take everyone to feel Normal? Help! Panicking a little!
-
i haven’t pooped yet! Did you take anything? I took milk of magnesium but hadn’t helped. I’m going to call doctor today. I can drink fine. Even broth I can drink a good amount maybe 4 oz in a sitting. I really can’t get comfortable at night!!! Anyone else?
-
Yeah I haven’t pooped. Starting milk of magnesium today. Yesterday I was able to do two shakes. What I learned is that you have to take tiny sips and walk and kind of drink it throughout the day. Don’t forget water I serve 12oz cup of water and make that my goal for the day
