You'll be ok in a day or two. Let the nurses know your in pain. Maybe they need to adjust your pain meds. Good luck to you and a speedy recovery.

Love cheese by itself and on almost everything. I don't crave it though. Cravings I get post op are of things I don't normally eat. I don't get it?

1st day of Pre-op diet/feeling crappy
J San replied to karyn2018's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Best of luck to you two!! Keep a strong head, you got this!!! -
You'll do great and it will all work out. Congrats and best of luck to you!!!!!

Going on 7 weeks out and I'm just making it to 700 a day. Not everyday but 3 out of the last 5. Other days I was just over 300.

What were your lifting/workout plans when you were first cleared to do so?
J San replied to J San's topic in The Guys’ Room
Gonna set up an account and check it out. Thanks again for the suggestion!! -
Don't drink enough water at one time to make you full. You only be taking sips every few minutes. Agree with Protein2O as well. And I'll be getting some FairLife Milk, havn't tried it yet but the thought of a glass of milk sounds delicious.

Your STARTED with insanity? Brave soul. I'd be afraid to try those if I was in shape. My nephew did them while in collage in the football program and he said they were intense.

Is it possible to build muscle after the sleeve? I'm about to find out.
J San replied to BlueCrush's topic in Fitness & Exercise
Amazing @Diana_in_Philly !!! That is a hell of an inspiring clip. You look great. I was reading the part where you were listing all that you do for workouts and I laughed because I thought of the saying "I don't have time for workouts". It's the exact opposite for you. You must be saying "I don't have time for ......" to a lot of other things. Congrats to you on your success and keep killing it. -
I think that's part of the problem. I may have over researched different programs and now don't know which way I want to go. I really don't have an exercise goal other than getting fit and being able to do it. I would rather not just stick with lifting but include more movement in my workout. I think for now starting off I might go with body weight exercises so I can do them at home? But in the months to come as I get more into shape and used to things I'm not sure what to do.

I have no idea what 24 to 4 looks like but it sounds awesome. CONGRATS!!!!

Thanks @Todd_196 Found a couple of apps that looked good when I did a search for that app. I didn't find "My" Fitness Buddy but did find Fitness Buddy. It asks to create a login right away before anything can be done, is that the one? @BigViffer Really not looking to get huge gains or become "strong as I can". I did that when I was young and really not interested in it at this moment, who know if it will change in time. More just looking to get into descent shape. If the look good comes along with it great. I don't think I'll ever get my "suggested" BMI , I'm just not built that way, but prefer to be a smaller me if at all possible. Thanks again gents!!! -
I did just that. Everything that came up was local gyms with indoor classes. I think a bit to early out for that type of workout so I'll keep looking. I don't really use FaceBook but maybe I can find something there. Thanks for the suggestion, definitely interested in doing something liking that

Looked into Camp Gladiator and it looks great but when I did the search for my area I came up with 0. It doesn't exist in my area but I'll look to see if there are similar programs near me. How far out were you when you started that.

Also lower in Protein and higher in Carbs (5g P and 12g C). I don't think this is a good choice.

18 months and hit my Goal! It was a journey
J San replied to Coachthex32's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Great job, CONGRATS!!!! -
Eat what you can, make sure it is high in protein.Two or three tiny bites is fine. It's better than nothing. But you have to try your best to sip all day. Your body may be in starvation mode due to the lack of food/water. Don[t get discouraged or annoyed, just do what you can to follow your program. Call your NUT and let them know what's going on, they will be able to suggest what you should do. Good luck to you, You'll get over this hump.

Scary spasm episodes. Related?
J San replied to Didjit's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That sounds terrifying. Sorry your having to experience this and hope you get it resolved. Good Luck!!! -
What powder did you use so I know to stay away from it? I only tried vanilla premier but I did not like it at all. I'm not big on sweets though and found it way to sweet with a horrible aftertaste. My son who drinks them for working out loves them though.

85% of my stomach remove (sleeve)

Oh no.... Too Late If it's been done so many times with success how is that justified? What about bypass, is that better? Yeah it's still there but...... -
Whoa Nelly...6 day’s post op and puréed soup
J San replied to rebchief's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Oh, I didn't even realize that. Read and it went right over my head. -
Anyone try a burger??
J San replied to likehasjustbegun's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I tried ground beef in week 4 and It did not sit well at all. It was the 1st time anything made me vomit. I'll wait awhile before I try it again. -

J San replied to rebchief's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
That rice was probably the culprit. The tightness is because you either ate to fast or to much. 6 weeks out and I still have issues with this. I eat too fast and I always have that one more bite that sets off the feeling. Hopefully you won't be like me and keep screwing it up, lol. I'll learn one day. -
I think that's so cool. Family members going through it together. Congrats to you guys!!!
