Any February 2014 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

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

I drank a bunch of Water. My stomach was like "bitch please. U ain't fooling me with that crap"

I drank a ProtiDiet. My stomach did the same thing and is telling me it's even hungrier. It's such a dick. Hahaha.

I'm getting sleeved in 3 more days. (If you count this as Saturday since it's the wee morning hours.) it sort of freaks me out. I didn't have a problem with them taking my gallbladder out but this seems so extreme. I feel sadness. And at the same time I'm thinking "fuck you fat stomach!"

Yeah. I'm weird

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.

Thank you for the update and for your honesty. I think it's so important to know people have the "what did I do to myself?" moment. I had that moment between sleeps in the hospital. I felt so sick and so non-functional. Even now, I'm only

going on to my third day and I am awake in the middle of the night with pain and low blood sugar. How could I not wonder what got me here? I personally feel that its a healthy question to ask both before and after surgery. How else can we learn and move on in our healthy new life?

I'm glad you are seeing the rainbow through the clouds. Having a good support system is really helpful. My husband is one of the good ones. I know he's had his "what is she doing?" moment. Again, it's just natural.

Please keep us updated on your success. Down 35 pounds in a month? That's incredible. Keep it up! You're doing great!

You're not weird in the slightest! I looked at my stomach and talked to it the morning of surgery. I told her it wasn't anything personal. But only one of us could continue in my life journey and I was choosing me.

How's that for weird? Lol

SJ, our weather was 83 today. Honestly, it's flipping February. That's just wrong! Tomorrow we have a high of 75. So it will be slightly cooler. But this isn't a typical California winter. It's been insanely hot. I miss our "chilly" 60ish degree winters. Lol.

      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.
