I'm sleeved



Recommended Posts

Well it's now Friday was sleeved on Wednesday had a bad reaction to the anesthetic and was wrenching for 24 hours so just on a drip. My surgeon swapped my meds and so I had a my fluids yesterday . It's a but like a funnel gurgling down into ur stomach!! I'm trying to drink really slowly but still getting a few bubbles the nurse said to sip and then walk ??anyways worst is over and thankyou for the mantra. I went under the anesthetic repeating I will do this I will wake up I will lose weight I will be healthy I will love myself more I do love my family. I will love me. So thankyou for all ur support any tips about the bubbles would be great!

Congratulations on your surgery! The bubbling will go away, right now your stomach tissue is so swollen it's like trying to pour a lot of liquid into a straw. As the swelling goes down, you will feel better and better. Keep drinking, burping, and walking!

Bless your self-----soon to be your little self! I haven't had my surgery yet, but I know you are going to have better days now! I'm not so worried about the anesthetic, but things do happen. Keep on---sip, walk, sip, walk. It's behind you!

Had my Bariiatric nurse come in and told me to but the glass in my mouth and drink while the Water was still around my mouth. She said it helps eliminate the swallowing of air. I tried it it seemed to hellp me out a little. I think it is just one of those things that past. I really didn't like the swallowing of air either. But congrads to you you are offically on the losing bench..Welcome

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
