Post op 1 week with my menstral cycle.
Granmasleeve posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I’m at the 6th day after surgery and my 2nd day of my cycle. I have fibroids so I bleed heavy. I feel horrible! So weak . I’m on a clear diet and It’s no enough to keep me going. I just doubled up on everything hopefully it will get me on my feet again. -
Tips to help get in all your protein and water
Granmasleeve replied to Rexcom's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I had Ensure and drank water soon after. My stomach hurt so bad. What do o do wrong? -
I hate when I try to confide in someone and they say "You don't need surgery" … 🤬 I say " Oh yeah...tell that to my bad knees and achy back..You try carrying a 70lb child around everyday" this was how I felt.. Do they really think I haven't tried other ways. Maybe they think WLS is the easy way out. This is why I only told a few selected people. I have enough battles to fight.

At my 1 week check up my dr. says go straight to regular food, just chew it up real good. I was uncomfortable at first but I'm easing my way through by starting with hard boiled eggs, manna bread...that's it so far...so good...
-
My doctor says everything looks great. I'm doing great. I can start eating regular foods just to chew it up good. What! No! What about Stage 2, the puree stage? He says no and I'm fine. I don't know I don't think I'm ready. Is there anyone who skipped from clear to regular foods after 1 week of surgery? Any advice???

Its been 1 week since yesterday and I just started having BM's. Why does it smell so bad when I only drink the same thing day after day? And when will it go away? It's a good thing I live alone...this is embarrassing!

Ok...what is that smell???!!!

Gotcha!! -
It’s been one week. Had my first BM and I still feel bloated. I feel like I should’ve lost something being I’m on a clear diet. I feel weak so I sneaked in two spoons of plain yogurt to my jello. Went down fine so I’m doing again. I need protein!

I thought I was consuming Protein. I'm having exactly what they gave me at the hospital the day after surgery. Bone broth, tea, water, and jello. Oh and a Flintstone complete vitamin. I see my Dr. tomorrow, I will ask him then. -
You don't need WLS just go on a diet!
Granmasleeve replied to Granmasleeve's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
This is why this forum is so important to me. I get the support I need and the doubt lifted. No one understands but me how the battle against my own body has been. I had an opportunity to fix it for good and I took it. I don't want weight to ever be an issue again in my life! I want to live... -

Post op 1 week with my menstral cycle.
Granmasleeve replied to Granmasleeve's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Good for you! My problem is fibroids. I requested to have them removed and my Dr. said they will go away...smh Ok well they've been there for over 14 years, doesn't look like they are staying and growing. I know this is something on my to do list, I had to prioritize some things. -

Yeah I did have pain killers....Thank Goodness! But I was exhausted getting up every hour from the hemorrhaging and having to sleep sitting up. I felt like I just bought a newborn home. Hopefully the hard part is over cause this aint easy. -
How do I join the October sleepers? I’m new to this 🤷🏽♂️

Intermittent Fasting Daily Menu/Results/Accountability
Granmasleeve replied to FluffyChix's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I’m in I love IF. This is how I lost 25 lbs in 3 months for the required weight loss before surgery. Is it safe with a sleeve? Maybe it would be ok as long as the protein is sufficient. 🙏🏽👋🏼
