Anyone else getting sleeved in August?



Recommended Posts

I had my Sleeve done this Monday Aug 12th. I was in a little pain after and better the next day. Today I am back home and feeling great. I have been sipping Water and Evolve Protein Shakes. So excited to begin this journey.

Hey Rbert, glad to know you are feeling great. I am so nervous about the gas pains everyone complains about...

I had gas pain on the same night of my sleeve and the next day but today I feel great. I had 3 evolve Protein Shakes, 1 orange Jello, lots of Water and I feel good. I know I was on Anti nausea medication and still on liquid pain killer but walking also helped me a lot. Being home helped ease my mind as well :)

Hello from the other side! I'm sleeved without any problems. My stomach is pretty sore (feels like I've done a thousand crunches!) but over all I am doing well. I've been walking to help with the gas pain, which has done me a world of good. I'm counting down the seven hours until I can have some ice chips, then I will be a happy camper!

I'm also the 26th! I started my pre-op on Tuesday. I'm on all liquid (no sugar, calories, carbonation) except a 4oz lean protein and 1/2C starch-free veggie for my dinners. It's pretty rough. Can't wait for the 26th!!!

      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.
