suegirl 109 Posted September 26, 2012 Well, it appears that any Protein that has ANY sugar in it, goes right through me... Spoke with the nutritionist and they moved me to pureed so that I can start taking my protein via food. My blood pressure is down low and I have no energy because I was only drinking Water, sf popcicles, and cream soup.. YIPPEE now I can have anything that is mashable EXCEPT meat, bread, and pasta... Oh and Sonic sells a Sunrise Smoothie... it is NOT ON THEIR MENU but they do make it.... strawberry, banana, a splash of orange juice and a scoop of their "ice cream" which is actually ice milk... YUMMMIEEE! and here is the nutritional info... a little high in calories BUT VERY high in protein and that's exactly what I needed right now... http://calorielab.com/restaurants/so...oothie/14/2046 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not having pain, but burning if I bend the wrong way. liquids really getting old. Anyone else have these problems or am I worrying too much? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are u taking your Proteins and your Vitamins? ? And dont slow down on yr liquids or you might get dehydrated... Dont worry our bodies are just reacting to the loss of more than half of a major organ...just keep a track of your fluids n proteins and u will feel better...i am taking my Multivitamins religiously and it works wonders...cheers !!!

soggycereal 3 Posted September 30, 2012 Sitting here waiting to go home after 2 nights in the hospital. Pretty rough. Hopefully this was all worth it. just wanted to reach out to u and tell u it will get better. this is temporary- when u graduate to soft mushies- it gets better fast. do EXCTLY what u r supposed to- do nit get dehydrated. For the next two weeks- getting ur fluids and Protein in are a full time job. hang in there- its soooo worth it- 4 mos here- 70 lbs. 1 AngelBaby reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mufasas-mom 170 Posted September 30, 2012 I had the sleeve doneon Monday Sept 17th--had alot of pain (more than I had anticipated) but today - 5 days post op' date=' I finally am feeling better-showered, hair washed and styled and mascara on! Off for a short walk and then spending the morning on the porch reading and enjoying the beautiful fall day!! My question is: How many of your surgeons/doctor groups called you at home post op?? Mine has not, and I am kind of pissed about it! Ann[/quote'] Mine called 2 days after then the following week. Also the hospital bariatric nurse called to check on me and also mailed me a get well card. I was very surprised Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
preetyfatchic 101 Posted October 1, 2012 My surgeon n NUT gave me their cell numbers ....that was pleasantly surprising!! But i guess most surgeons in India do that....what was even more surprising is that they actually reply texts not immediately but they do.... :) Sent from my GT-I9100 using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whatever16 5 Posted October 1, 2012 1st night at home and pretty rough. Very hard to find a comfortable way to lay down. The hospital beds weren't the best so have bad back ache to go along with the pain in the front. Stomach is going crazy so going to call the Dr for Prilosec and anything else he can give me to help out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
