Sleeved two days ago



Recommended Posts

Still feel like I can't get much down and feel every swallow go into my stomach. Does this go away? Oh and everything tastes gross and makes me feel nauseated. How were you at two days out ?

It'll pass soon as the swelling goes down. Just sip all day and follow your Drs plan.

Everything you described is normal. The first week or two is hard, you just had major surgery,

They shoved a tube down your throat that's why swallowing everything hurts, and cut burned stabled and sewed your stomach back together that's why you feel sick to your stomach.

It gets better! But yes it takes time.

Hang in there.

Agreed, the first few days are pretty intense. I ate a lot of sugar free popsicles and drank broths. Never got a full popsicle down even...and I actually threw up quite a bit the first two or so days. I am almost 4 months out now, and I can eat anything without issue =)

tiny sips! For almost the first week I had my measuring cups lined up and I was sipping them every 10 minutes. IT WAS HARD! :0) After that I kept, and still use, a Water bottle with the oz. measurements on the side.

I have to admit my commitment to getting all my liquids was the threat of hospitalization again due to dehydration.

Sip your tiny sips. OFTEN! I'm about to start my 3rd month and I get dehydrated very easily and it's made worse by the fact that I can't gulp Water without my stomach having serious spasms.

good luck!

      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.
