Calling all June 11 sleevers



Recommended Posts

I was done on June 11 and want to see if where I am and what I am doing is right. They give u all kinds of info, but I'm still not sure if what I'm doing is right. Finding it real hard to get the Protein and liquids in that I need. I'm doing about 12ozs of Protein Shakes a day and and 30ozs of Water only. Plus doing some sf pudding with dry milk added in for calories. I'm tired and taking a few naps a day...am I just lazy or is that normal, lol. Where is everyone else?

I was sleeved on the 10th. I find all the broths nasty so I found a recipe. 2 regular sized cans of chicken broth, 2 scallions cut into long pieces, 2 tbs soy sauce and a piece of ginger. Simmer for 10 minutes. Much better tasting. A bit more sodium but at this point who cares.

I can't get enough Water in either. I hate the Protein Shakes and the Vitamins make me ill, hate the chalkiness. Ughh. Hope my body doesn't conk out on me before 7/1. That's my three week mark and I can eat mushy foods. That day can't come soon enough.

Can I suggest a really yummy Protein drink...Chike! I didn't think I would be successful because I hated all the protein drinks until I found it. It's very good and no after taste.

It is getting easier to get my liquids in and I also have some chicken noodle Soup that i strain because the broths taste nasty so this taste a little bit better... So hopefully I am staying hydrated I feel pretty good I took my liquid B12 today for some more energy... I am looking forward to having strained cream Soups next week... And having purée the following week

I was sleeved on June 10th. I drink my Protein Drink (power from GNC) that's 25 gr of Protein, and sometimes just two of those. Other times, one of those and one Premier Protein (which is only 11 fl oz for 30 gr of protein). I'll have creamed Tomato, or butternut squash soup....sf pudding, and maybe a sf Popsicle too. Since I am so used to snacking at night (this will be hard to break LOL) I found a yummy bariatric protein hot chocolate which is 15 grams. So, I sip that at night and it helps :)

I was also done on the 11th & I'm on Clear Liquids for 2 weeks. All I can have is Water, very diluted 100% juice, broth (uggghhhh) and Crystal light. NOTHING ELSE.

No Protein or Vitamins. From here I go to 2 months of full liquids & only 5 days out & umm I'm so OVER broth. And I'm like am I hungry? Bc I sure do feel like it. :)

I find it very interesting that different docs give different diets. I wonder why u aren't allowed and shakes after the surgery?

I was just wondering the same thing? That's the first I heard someone being on clear liquids for so long and so long for full liquids? Do you have other health issues also maybe? I would think your body would need the Protein right now to heal...but, I'm not a doctor, so what do I know LOL

      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.
