February 26 sleeve journey



Recommended Posts

I had my sleeve on 2/26 I weighed in at 296 at that point. I'm now down to 218 @ 15 weeks out. Have been very successful and diligent only a few times where I had pain after eating. Haven't thrown up once (knock on wood I HATE throwing up). Anyone who's considering this procedure I definitely recommend it! Just make sure you follow what your drs and dietitians tell you to do. I'm open to answer any questions you guys have who are pre or post op.

Thank you ao much! And sure. For exercise I do crossfit 3x a week. as far as my daily menu I have 60-80 grams of Protein a day. Either 1-2 shakes (I use one scoop of isopure) or a shake and Quest protein Peanut Butter cups (I LOVE these they have very little carbs and 10 grams of protein each they're a little dry so try one pack and make sure you like them). lunch is usually 2 pieces of turkey with cheese rolled up with a slice of avocado in them. I make a lot of chili because I can put some vegs in there and get a lot of protein that way. Sometimes for Snacks ill have a piece of dark chocolate or an applesauce. Another thing I have for dinner is some grilled chicken (sometimes I cheat and use the page made frozen ones) and cook it with a little BBQ Sauce and light bleu cheese dressing. I really try to avoid grain and carbs (I try to limit myself to 30 carbs a day) I also try to have 2 tbsp of a flax and chia seed mix along with my Vitamins.< /p>

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
