I was sleeved on the 25th also. But I'm definitely not talkin 2 miles a day! lol I was told to wait until 2 weeks post-op for anything that intense. To me, if I sweat, it's working out! (Although, it's 100 degrees in Ohio so I guess walking to my car is working out. :) ) Prior to surgery I was doing about 8-9 miles a week. I hope to get back there soon; I'm just still dealing with serious fatigue and sleepiness.

I only have been walking using my fitbit about 3800 steps is a 1.5 miles so if you wear a pedometer that's how i keep track..... just take more and more steps that's the key

When I get low blood sugar I drink a cup of skim milk and it brings it right back quickly. It's liquid and it has enough carbs and it has Protein so I get extra protein in.

Sleeved on June 6th. At 9 days out I was down 16.7 pounds (yay). But now at 4 weeks I am only down an additional 10 for a total if 26.7. I guess I had it in my head that it would be more so a little disappointed. I know I can do better on my Water intake...any other suggestions to pick it up a little?

For all of you that have lost 1 or more pounds a day and are disappointed that you have not lost more weight...ask yourself when the last time was that you ever lost so quickly! I am 4 weeks out and have only lost 10 pounds. However, that is 2 pounds a week, a healthy expectation. Hopefully I will not have any stalls since I have been slow and steady. But seriously, you are making ME concerned with my slow weight loss and I am still on liquids!

Hi! Sleeved June 26 in Melbourne Australia.

I've lost 4 kilos which is about 10 lbs, but I'm not worries about weightloss yet. A well healed body is what I want.

I just started puréed food yesterday with pumpkin Soup and roast beef purée (not at the same time)

Still taking 3 resource anyway to make sure I keep the Protein up.

Trying harder with Water now that I'm on purée.

Glad you are doing well! We now have a Facebook group if you want to join us. You can friend me and I can add you to the group!

https://www.facebook.com/#!/robin.c.benson

Is the Facebook group private? Because not everyone on my current Facebook knows that I had the surgery, was just wondering before I look it up.

Yes, it is a private (secret) group. No one can see anything you post in it unless they are a member.

I second that. Post from it were showing up on my wall and I had a mini freak out. I figured out only I could see it. I thought I'd FYI you on that as I've seen others question it.

      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.
