Good !! Walked down the street and back last night. Started my Protein shake this morning and it taste fabulous !! 42 grams of Protein in this beast. It will take me all day to drink it, but right now I"m not minding it. Plus I can have Soups today too ! Win win

Thinking of taking the dogs for a walk. Do some light weight training with my 5 lb weights and maybe a trip to the disgusting walmart.. maybe.. I really do hate that place LOL.

I did weigh myself... I shouldn't stand not to. I am down 7 lbs from surgery. I'll take it. Yup, things are good here !

Do any of you notice that sensation when you swallow? I talked to a guy that was sleeved the same day and he said he had it. I take sips that are so small I hardly have any Fluid. It goes down and then the gas bubble(?) comes painfully back up. It was getting a little better w/just Clear liquids but when I put some Protein in Water, it does it every single time. and then a few times when I'm not even swallowing.....

Karen, yes !!!!! Just keep walking and do whatever you have to do to get that gas out :)

I'm trying not. I went to the mall to pick up my new glasses. Then Walmart. Hubby needed a few things. But I can tell I"m tired now, so I'm home, and relaxing. I think it nap is in the near future LOL.

Hello to all sleevers!!

I just wanted everyone to know that my surgery was done around lunch time today..I am thanking you all for the prayers and I'm thanking God for seeing me through the surgery with out any issues. I had a hernia repair as well as my sleeve surgery. I came back to my room took a short nap then went for walk #1. Been out walking 4 times 2-3 laps each time. I've cleaned up as much as possible without showering (only because Doc said absolutely not) and I'm in my own P.J. sitting on the side of my bed catching up with friends and family.

I think that is pretty awesome. I know I have a lot of work ahead but I have been blessed with an awesome start!!!

Love to all,

Dawn

      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.
