julia7665 100 Posted June 26, 2013 Getting sleeved today! Have to be at the hospital at 10' date=' surgery is at 1. Very nervous and excited. Good luck to everyone else that is being sleeved today!![/quote'] Surgery is delayed because the first pt took longer than expected. Been sitting here since 10, becoming more anxious! Ugh! 2 Aline728 and Brenda0928 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lisa O 52 Posted June 26, 2013 Bit sleeved on Monday. That was a rough night. Had dry heaves all night....kept going to the bathroom to pee but couldn't-----beers time I heaved----peed my pants! That was unexpected. Argh. Home now. Set my phone alarm for every two hours to make me get and walk. I feel better laying down than sitting up, but really not too bad! Trying to get liquids down but its hard. 1 nursesettie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
judysbabies 16 Posted June 26, 2013 memk - I asked the same question but then I bought a few different ones and tried them myself. I highly recommend that route. Unjury is off the Internet and I liked some of them but not all. I am a chocolate person so I settled on a Isolate chocolate that I got at Vitamin World. I add about 2 teaspoons of my favorite coffee creamer for a change of flavor. Everyone's taste buds vary so check them out for yourself before sinking a lot of money into one kind. I also found a fruit drink at Vitamin World that tastes like a Pina Colada without the rum. It is by CyroSport and is whey isolate. No milk base. It seems to be easier on my stomach post-surgery than the shakes.,..,.even the lactose free shakes.< /p> 2 Brenda0928 and nursesettie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greygirl903 45 Posted June 27, 2013 I had my surgery on monday and when I woke up I was in so much pain. I asked myself why did you do this?? Once my pain medicine started I stayed asleep most of the time but when I was awake I started throwing up. It was TERRIBLE. I guess my body was not liking the pain meds. I came home yesterday and the 2nd day was soo much better than the first. My bp was elevated last night which have me a headache and I'm soo ready to lose some weight so it will go down permanently. I know everyone's experience is different. I am finding it hard to get my Protein in. I can't feel any of my incisions except the large one on my right side. It really does get better each day. 2 nursesettie and Dee White reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Morganne 241 Posted June 27, 2013 Don't force the Protein for a couple of days. At this point drink anything that feels good. I liked Gatorade. By day 4 you will be good to go! 2 nursesettie and SheWins1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
