Where the May sleevers i just got my date!



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on May 15th..I can't believe I can actually say that. With reading some people's story' date=' I was a little concerned, not enough to discourage me, just a little concerned.

Was released from hospital Friday afternoon and the last time I took any pain meds since the morning I left the hospital. I sleep well, have worked up to walking 30 mins today and can even sleep on my stomach.

Just a little hard getting all fluids and Proteins in, but work real hard each and every day to improve.

I have been truly blessed and pray every day for everyone on here![/quote']

Congrats and thanks for the prayers

my surgery is today and my anxiety is getting the best of me. I threw up twice last night ( sorry if TMI) I'm not so much worried about the surgery as I am the recovery. Not sure how bad the pain will be, etc. of course anxiety can have no real reason at all - last night I thought I was having a panic attack. not fun. well I'm off to get ready to leave for the hospital. Telling myself it will be ok.

Today is my big day!! Good Luck to all fellow May 22nd sleevers!! My biggest complaint is nerves and this terrible taste in my mouth. Idk if its from the antibiotics or the Protein Shakes or what but its awful. But other than that I'm great!!

So I went to my two weeks post op today and I lost 23.6 pounds. It was a surprise since I decided not to weight until today. This including my pre op weight loss of 11 pounds.

Wow! Congratulations!

That must be do exciting for you. I have lost 6kg which is 13lb. I'm pretty happy with that do far. I'm still struggling with getting all my Protein in though. I'm current getting about 40g Protein a day. I find I'm having to have every meal now with high protein foods, but ill get there. I'm just worried about my hair!!

I was sleeved on May 13. Doing great now, had more pain than I e pelted. Feel that I've got a hang of swallowing the right amount at a time. I'm wondering how much Protein the rest of you ate "supposed" to be getting and what's the realistic amount at 10-14 days pst op.

I woke up in the recovery area. I was pretty groggy bc of the anesthesia but wasn't really in any pain. Just soreness from the incisions. I was pleasantly surprised with how good I actually felt. The only time I hit the morphine button was at night to help me sleep. My roommate and I have done so well we're being discharged tonight. My best advice to you is to sip,sip,sip and walk,walk,walk! You'll do fine!

      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.
