Doing a bit better with water intake. Was only getting 8oz a day now up to 12oz and other drinks like tea The 28th will be my 2 months out and since the week before surgery I'm down 45 pounds today. Still having issues with my blood pressure at times hoping it changes soon.. I'm up from 380 calories to 480.. finally got 700 calorie day in with lots of protein

I feel nauseous now after my month out and didn't feel like it the first month. Arrrgghhh... hard to eat still not much taste good... when will it change... and sex drive totally gone... omg...

One of the great things we can go through after a gastric sleeve surgery or any weight loss surgery. Some people can be cold for the rest of their lives. I bought me an electric blanket. I am cold all the time. With fibromyalgia it isn't fun...

Thank you Ed will try and find zipfizz tomorrow. I'm taking 2 flintstone chewable a day plus 2 chewable calcium with CD and k Protein is ok 30 to 50 but I'm going to try getting more premiere in.

I was having similar problems and seemed I had done too much lifting and pulled areas I shouldn't have... I'm healing finally and sleep on the opposite side I usually did... plus I prop myself up to sleep still... But always good to ask your dr

It's now 6 weeks since surgery and I feel worse than 2 weeks after. Weak, nauseous, and just don't feel right...am I the only one? I felt better right after and now I feel like life is being sucked out of me... 36 pounds down ... at least one good thing

Spoke to my dr about the fact nothing tastes good.. I was told this is normal as the body has to heal and slowly get rid of the anesthesia... I finally can taste a few things. Hope all get your taste buds bsck

Yup, its telling you to drink more. I too am going through it. I've been drinking Naked juice. Seems to help me keep that feeling down. But water is key... try peppermint tea...

I just ordered Avon items that are new. Can't wait to start them. One is for stretch marks, one skin firming with collagen and cellulite repair. Avon changed my life from having looked 25 plus when I was only 15 with cystic acne. I'll post pictures once I start using them... www.youravon.com/teddy

Don't know what your doing to get 40oz down wow I'm only at 20 and that includes my protein drink.

I hear you all. I am finally getting it. When I'm full I hurt or feel bloated... I'm learning to chew gum again in place of grazing. I'm also finding what makes me feel full even though I'm in full liquid to pureed foods. I started getting baby foods that are ready to eat. Some are great and others yuck. I also love Scandal less Vanilla ice cream. It's a different kind with lots of protein. 19g a container. Yippie... I just for the first time tried cottage cheese and one bite was plenty. I feel full... I never get my so called water in. I'm lucky to drink a glass of water a day.

Hello all, I had my sleeve surgery Dec 28th and did great until I got home 2 days and then was due for my cycle of the month. My blood pressure shot way, way up. I wound up in a hospital in the town of Wickenburg where we moved. I am finally getting my BP down some and have been eating cream of wheat, premier drinks, egg drop soup, Yogurt, popsicles, baby foods and my favorite Scandal less Vanilla( because it taste great plus has great quality of protein. My Dr is known for a slim sleeve without a pre op diet. So it will take a little to attempt the harder foods for me as some of you are trying. I started 313 and I'm down to 299.5 at 5'8" .

Blood pressure went sky high today and wound up in ER. Found out you can't chew blood pressure medications they don't work as well with the body and being dehydrated on top of it all. Doing better after iv fluids and dr precautions of blood pressure medication to drop BPdown quickly in an emergency. Home trying to keep my fluids going. My doctor was right. It's a 16 to 18 hour day to keep hydration in place. I think for me it's harder getting my meds down... I have soooooo many.... arghhh

The second day after my surgery they let me eat cream of wheat with sweetener veggie broth and sugar free Vanilla pudding and Italian ice... Now on my 5th day fter surgery I had enlightened ice cream, lobster bisque, and baby food... I'll be on soft foods after I see my dr for follow up on the 10th

Hopefully you can get over it soon and have no delays.
