I'm home...sleeved 2 days ago



Recommended Posts

Hi:

I am home. I got sleeved 2 days ago. I'm tired and without energy. I have little gas pains, but more pain by my incisions in my stomach. My shoulders feel great. It took awhile to "void" as what the nurses say. I would say PEE myself. Most of all, I'm glad it's over. I can't wait to feel better, stronger, and healthier.

I'm hoping in 5 days I'm back to normal. I will see tomorrow what the scale says.

I feel like I have to sit down like a pregnant lady...real slow, holding the sides. My skin and stomach muscles hurt. It hurts to hold a gallon of milk. Ouch!

I wonder what takes all the energy from you? My surgeon didn't mention anything at all about not having energy just the nausea and vomiting. My surgery is Monday August 25th so just a few more days.

Now..I'm on day 3 post op. I can't sleep the whole night. I sleep in a recliner chair. I wake up for Tylenol. I only drank 2 bottles of Water yesterday. I hope to drink 3 today. Still with little energy. I got to get in some Protein today. Now I'm off to take my meds. Wish me luck as I slowly improve.

      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.
