Momofthing1thing2thing3 116 Posted December 4, 2012 Should I go back to the liquid diet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bukki 41 Posted December 4, 2012 @momof.....you should try the liquid diet. If one of your kids got sick, you would do that until they started feeling better. Treat your" tiny tim" like a baby tummy.....after all it is!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ready4change77 88 Posted December 4, 2012 I agree w/ the above - go back to the basics of just Protein Shakes, juice & etc & of course lots of Water & then work your way back every couple of days just like we did when we 1st got sleeved... Hope you get better soon & can eat... Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

newgrandmother 725 Posted December 4, 2012 momof i just went through that. i had stomach flu like symptoms aka dumping. my eating wasnt back to normal till today. i had no appetite i could barely get anything in. my nut said i went through something violent with my new tummy and it takes a while to be ok. you will be fine. it took me 11 days before i was back to normal. by smart Water for the electrolytes. i lost 5lbs of water that night so give your body time try a full liquid diet for a day and slowly add soft foods thats what i did. i really had no appetite for food for 11 days. its back in full effect now. lol ready its called a yeager meister i dont know how to spell it. it was my first time having it. i had the best sandwich today. i went to trader joes my fave spot. i purchased whole wheat hamburger bun, breaded chicken breast, light sliced cheese lettuce and Tomato. omfg it was so good. 1/2 bun 1 breaded chicken brest it was small 1/2 light chedder chesse slice 2 slices of tomatos 1 lettuce leaf under 300 cal 14 grams of Protein less than 20 grams of carbs taste just like a wendys chicken sandwich 1 ready4change77 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k9qt 12 Posted December 4, 2012 Okay, I am ready to join the Sept 2012 Sleevers! I was sleeved on September 27th and 15 days later they found a leak. Needless to say I am WAY behind you all........I have been on TPN with PICC line since Oct 12th and nothing to eat or drink. This ended last week and I am now on all liquids and excited about finally dropping some lbs! Lost 11 lbs since removal of TPN. Having a hard time getting enough in though. I am only getting about 32 oz of liquids, but I add Protein to EVERYTHING so I am getting my 50-60 grams. I don't remember having such a hard time "liking" Water before the leak but now, can't stand the taste of a lot of things! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MDM0927 29 Posted December 4, 2012 Welcome k9qt, sorry to hear how rough things were, I hope everything gets better! I will be trying my first drink since surgery on Friday, I can't wait! Omg I bought a sample pack of Vitamins from Celebrate and I feel like I'm going to vomit. I don't know how you guys chew those chalky vitamins. I've never been one to put things in my mouth unless it tasted good, no wonder I got this big :-/ Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k9qt 12 Posted December 4, 2012 I will be trying my first drink since surgery on Friday, I can't wait! At about 5 weeks on TPN I did tell the doctor I was about ready to take a syringe of Tequilla and add it to my TPN....I'm not even a drinker! But what I wouldn't give to calm the nerves at that point! She laughed at me and said "well technically, it is sterile"...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
