August post op sleevers: Check in



Recommended Posts

I am a little over 3 weeks out. Feeling great overall. Walking at least 1 mile each day. Went on a tough two mile hike on Sunday and felt great. I am eating between 700-800 calories a day and can't wait to start "soft" foods tomorrow!

I have a question I'm 3/12 weeks out and I'm reading people are eating solid food. It's hard for get in the 80 to 100 of Protein. How are you guys doing with the solid food. I just started walk about a mile three days a week. Can someone please help

I don't think they're eating solid food as of yet more like soft food

I was sleeved Aug 11 and feel so great! I am now eating regular food and haven't had any issues. It seems crazy that I had this surgery only 5 weeks ago- definitely a turn around from the 1st week regrets I had!

Hello Hello Hello and Good morning! Can you tell I am feeling great? Well, the Miralax worked and I think I am going to stick with that until I can eat regular foods. I am also going to stick with the Activia too. I would rather have food to help me than some chemicals. I have deleveoped acid reflux and had a few heartburn sessions. That is the only con about my sleeve experience. Never had acid reflux like this and I have to take some chewables for this.

I am glad to see everyone heading in the right direction,DOWN! We are still in the beginning stages and still have a long journey.

Later Loser!

I was sleeved on August 27 and have only managed to lose 15 pounds. Of course I'm happy with 15...it's better than gaining that much. But I keep hearing about all these people losing so much more since their surgery. On the pre op diet, I lost 11 pounds, so I'm down a total of 26. Do you have any tips on what is making your weight loss so dramatic?

That included my preop days....I know everyone is different and we should never measure our loss to another person as there so many different factors....I do alot of walking though....it helps....and most likely it will slow down for me ...your doing great!!!

      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.
