1 Month Post Op Results - 12/28/2011 To 01/28/2012



Recommended Posts

1 day shy from my 1 month sleevaversary actually but that's ok :smile1:. Got weighed yesterday at my doctor's visit and so far I'm down 37 pounds since surgery. Not too bad. I can already feel a huge difference. My back doesn't hurt as much as it used to and I can now walk a much longer distance without any knee or joint pain. Clothes are also very loose and I can fit into an old jacket I missed dearly!. Doctor gave the ok to start weight lifting so my next step is to come up with and establish a solid routine. I hope everything keeps going smoothly. Just wanted to share :smile1:

Congratulations Biggie... I too was sleeved on December 28th. I have lost but 8.5 lbs. Although I had lost 5.5 on the liquid diet. Overall, it's not a big number, but more than I have ever lost in a month. You keep up the good work and so happy you are noticing differences already. Have a great day...

      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.
