October Sleevers - Who else



Recommended Posts

B2B. Not even sure what my surgeons instructions are regarding weight training, but I am not too jazzed for it since there is only 1 gym within 40 min of where I live and it is SOOOOO not cost effective at all. I am going to have to fumble at home guided by you tube videos.

So jealous. I'm not allowed to weight train per my postop instructions until 6 months out! Only walking 60-90 minutes every day and add abdominal exercises at 2 months. It seems like a long time to wait to lift weights right? {)i(} Sent from my iPhone using VST {)i(}

ya but it seems every doctor is different i was told i cant have puree foods till 1 month after surgery and solids after 2 months how ever i know ppl who had complications and are able to have them after only 6 days post op my surgeon cleared me 3 days after my surgery for any and all workouts no restrictions due to me having no pain nothing he says quote i looked like a rockstar i will tell you ive already started reg foods because i feel my body will tell me what i can handle and so far im ok its made getting Protein in easyier because i eat salmon cottage cheese and other high protein things i just wont tell my doc i started early lol

OMG!!! Going back to work (I'm a hair stylist) was soooo much harder than I thought it would be. I am two weeks out as of Mon, sleeved on the 21st. I've been feeling great but yesterday really set me back. I'm afraid it's going to be a really long week.

You might be doing yourself a favor with the YouTube videos since gyms are so expensive. What did we do before YouTube? I want the benefit of a trainer to have a person to be accountable to. I also don't know about waiting 6 months to do lower body weights. Everything will be flab if I don't get in the gym!

      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.
