JULY 2014 SLEEVERS GROUP

[blondebomb 580]

Sleeved on the 7th and lost 14lbs but also nothing the last couple days . How long did your doctors tell you guys to wait before exercising ? Trying not to get discouraged . I'm on the purée diet and I just can't do it . liquid tuna chicken and turkey just really turn me off. Anyone have any suggestions ?! I'm still on creams Soups but I have been tending to eat the chunks in the soups and not straining then (I'm bad)

I havnt read all threads but are u adding Protein Powder to ur Water, foods that it can be added in?? I have several scoops a day I add the unflavor to applesauce, soups, my ice tea, I'm making diffused water by adding strawberrys cut up, cucumber, mint leaves an just let it sit all day in fridge then add a teaspoon hee an there...or it in a cup of hot tea or my coffee in mornings. ..everything I can I add Protein. .hope this helps...I stalled about 4 days then all of a sudden it showed I dropped 4 more pds...I also use ketone stix to p on to see if I'm still burning. ..it helps me. ..

Hi, my name is Misha, and I was sleeved on July 10, 2014. So far so good but very weak and nauseous from the liquid hemoglobin I have to take. Very weak, too. Strangely, foods taste different and I don't like the taste of most of my previously loved foods. Glad to hear that I am not alone experiencing these symptoms.

I was sleeved on 7/14 and feel pretty good. I will get odd back pain right around my diaphragm area. Anyone know if this is gas or spasms? Would like to take the right meds.

Hi! New to BP. I was sleeved 7/10/14. I have been blessed with having an easy time. My only issue at this point is fatigue. I can easily get 80-90 oz of fluids and the same in grams of Protein in a day. I will not say "only" but I have lost 6 lbs since surgery. I expected a little more but if I were dieting I'd be happy, so I'll take it. I have lost a total of 13 inches so far. Yay! I try to walk 30 minutes a day.

Hey all....im.1.week post op my surgery date was July 14.

[rriggins 19]

My doctor did tell me not to worry about the weight it will come off the main thing is to get your Protein and take your vitamins......but when you have weight loss surgery its hard not to be concerned with the amount your loosing

I think I'm going back to liquids to see what happens

I like Unjury chicken broth.. and they delivered within 2-3 days... although after 10 days it is getting old.

Hello! I am a 7/14/14 sleever... not loosing anything for the past 4 days stinks.
I will just keep drinking and trying to get in the Protein.< /p>

Yes I'm definitely in the the same place I've been trying to get as much liquids and protein in as possible but of course the protein is horrible and I can't seem to get down a whole bottle of anything with it in it I'm even trying that unflavored protein they gave me in the hospital but I don't kno what to do as far as that's concern

Not sure where you are in eating phase. I am in puréed. One of my favorite go to protein foods is sugar free/fat free instant pudding with two scoops of my vanilla protein powder and 1/4 cup PB2 powder. It s really good and very satisfying.

Lakemama, you can put the unflavored powder in anything to add Protein. I added it to Soup, yogurt, applesauce, and pudding. The one I have seems to make everything but the soup more of a liquid, so I added a tiny bit of skim milk to the soup to make it the right consistency. I could not do my fusion shakes after surgery and they had been fine before. Found I could handle the premade shakes a bit better especially when cold. I just sip them similar to Water over a long time; took it my purse to a movie and keep it in my car when I drive to sip more protein.

Hello! My surgery was 7/7/14. My high weight before beginning. The preop diet was 266, day of surgery was 251, and current weight is 239. All in all it has been pretty good started on my soft easy to chew Proteins like canned meat, Beans and cheese. food doesn't taste the same, I am never hungry and when I eat I am so focused on eating slow, chewing, and not hurting my stomach it has become more of a chore than enjoyment. Also it is hard to get the Protein you need in. Exercising is going great, just surprised I have the energy:)
