I was sleeved on Tuesday and I haven’t lost any weight and it is now Saturday. I feel like all of my fears are happening and I am going through all of this post op pain to remain in the same place I started. I am feeling very discouraged. Any similar experiences or words of wisdom would be appreciated

How long are people wearing the abdominal binders post op? I’m only 2 weeks but it feels like I’ll be depending on this thing forever! I’m a nurse and going back to work with this in a few weeks is not something I want to do lol

Wow it’s crazy that I don’t think I can function without mine, I’ve needed it every day post op! It’s amazing how differently people experience this surgery! -
I started my liquid diet today, surgery is May 4th. I was fine until I wasn’t, all I want is salty food because the protein shakes satisfy the sweet tooth. I’m also supposed to have fruit juice with the shakes as part of my programs diet, but that just seems crazy. So much sugar! Does anyone else’s program have them with 3 protein shakes and 24oz of fruit juice a day? I’m getting paranoid about it that it’s not gonna do anything.

My program has us do 3 protein shakes and 3 cups of 100% fruit juice, and according to the program dietician it is to help make sure blood sugar is maintained and to prevent patients from becoming ketogenic while on the diet.
