Sleeved September 12, 2013



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone, my name is Kenny and I was sleeved on the 12th of this month. So far im doing ok, I just feel extremely weak. The first couple days when I got home I felt good, then slowly I started to get weak. (Not sure if thats normal) im going to the doctor tomorrow to see if everything is ok. Reading all these positive threads makes me feel good about my decision. Im glad I found this app.

Hey I felt like that too but I spoke to the nurse and she said to me I'm not drinking enough fluids / Protein hence why I feel lethargic.

From that day on I upped my Water / juice/ slimfast intake and I feel 100 percent better now

I was sleeved the same day!!!! I was really tired when I first got home and pretty much just rested and tried to sip. At my first post op appt. my Dr. told me I had to get at least 60 grams of Protein in and when I did I started to feel much better. I hope everything goes ok at your appt. and you start to feel better. I read a lot of the posts on here and I am very encouraged to stay on track. This really is a great app!!!!

      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.
