Any February 2014 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, I have been gone for a while. I was sleeved on the 10th. I had my prayers, lip balm, and gas x ready. Lol. All I can remember was the recovery room. My blood pressure did spike a little. My surgeon said my liver was good and it was a nice sleeve. I live in GA, and left the hospital the next morning. We were snowed in and all I had was broth and popsicles. Lol. Today, I feel great. My husband took me shopping because I can't eat anything. Walking helped soooooo much. I was miserable before. I was able to walk today, and I feel like a million bucks. Let me be honest. Day 2 I cried alone due to regret. I finally shared it with my husband today. I asked myself, y couldn't I do this myself. I asked , what had I done to myself. I prayed for understanding. Today, my rainbow after the storm has come. This post is very long, I felt it would be selfish to not share my truth. I have a wonderful support system, and my husband has been great. Oh. Fyi. I am 35 lbs down from my last weight in before pre opt. I wish you all luck.

I'm glad you are doing so well and thankful you have him for support.

I bet you just about everyone thinks those same thoughts. Finally we come to terms and accept the fact that obesity is a disease. There comes a time where you have to make the right choice to get healthy and that's what you did. No shame in that at all.

Haha. Glad to know I have friends! I knew

People would wonder where I was. But I was just so dang out of it! That anesthesia is no joke. I basically slept 22 hours straight. This morning I thought "I will never get out of bed again!" And tonight I'm wandering around my house no problem. My sweet husband just said it's good to see me up on my own. I'm sure his arms are just about dead from me needing his help every time I stood. I'm so glad to be out of surgery and back home. I'm planning on a walk with hubs and baby tomorrow. We are having gorgeous weather and I know the activity is good for healing.

I'm so glad you're doing so well!!! Gives me hope. I tend to be a fast healer, so hopefully this is the same. :)

But. I don't wanna hear about your most perfectly gorgeous weather. Ppppppffffff

I feel like just need to live off ProtiDiet to make up for the horrible carb/protein ratio I've gotten gotten the last 2 days. Hahaha. That's probably why my stomach is eating itself right now. Hah

      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.
