Any February 2014 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Now I am a little nervous I had surgery on Monday and have not had a BM I don't even feel like I need too.. Do you guys think I should be worried yet?? Is there anything I can do ? I don't like that Isopure stuff even though it's pretty high in Protein I can't drink it ... Hmmmm!!

I haven't had a BM yet either, Lauren. Been slowly passing gas, but that's about it.

How did you even reach your butt hole?! I can barely reach to wipe after a pee! I have to out a foot up on the seat to wipe. Lolz

It took me like 15 minutes of strenuous wiping. Lol

My surgeon says for me not to worry about Protein just yet. First we get in sugar free liquids and that's all I need on my mind. Then comes Proteins a week or so later.

As for popping a out a poop, my bro in law sharted and only realized it once he got up to walk. So yeah, do not trust a fart this early on. My sister was like "well, I just had to wash Doug's ass, this is my punishment in life" lol

Just went to a pre-op class today & the nurse said that if you have to but can't to add Miralax to you Protein shake/drink and it will help you go. But she also said every 3-4 days may become your new normal. Not much in not much out. Good luck!

I didn't go til day 6 and didn't feel any discomfort. I didn't even realize I had to go. I went to pee and surprise! Haha. Although it was a painful, half-an-hour surprise. Ugh...

Reading all your posts is making me nervous. I have my pre-admit tests tomorrow. Think I'm nervous because I didn't think this would really happen for me. The idea of being off my meds & loosing this weight makes me very excited but it still feels unbelievable.

You'll be okay! What most of us learned in the last week having our surgery was a little rough. The first two to three days are hard. But after that you start to feel better and after a week you feel like a new person. The change in me over the last week has been amazing. Just remember you only have to get through a few hard days to move on to a healthier, more enjoyable life. It's worth it, I promise!

You're gonna do great. Even as rough as I had it I'd do it all over again. The first couple days are a bit rough, but each day gets better.

      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.
