August post op sleevers: Check in



Recommended Posts

So last night DH wanted to get sushi for dinner, before we would have gone to all you can eat, so we went to a new/sit down place. I was so pleased he started with edamame and I had a few, love finding new foods that agree with my sleeve and the Protein and Fiber are an added bonus. I order tuna tataki appetizer for my meal, I ate half then DH finished it. Love finding new food that I can eat.

We leave on a four day cruise Thursday, already packed my EAS Protein Shakes and am looking forward to trying additional food items.

@@mskiesha29 yes Protein Shakes are nasty but for me that is how I get my Protein in. It's hard for me to get the protein I need other ways so shake are it for right now and CONGRATS ON being down 6 dress size I would be crying too.

I'm 9 weeks out now and for the last two days I've felt like I did the first week I was allowed to have mushy foods! I can barely get down a 1/4 a cup of food and then it feels like everything wants to come back up! I also had a sharp pain in my right portion of my stomach last night that didn't go away for over two hours (I don't have a gallbladder or an apendix so those two are ruled out)Anyone else having this problem?<br /><br />I just came off my monthly a few days ago so I don't know if that is a contributing factor but this is ridiculous! I am even having a hard time getting any Water down (so I am getting dehydrated - only had to go to the bathroom 2x yesterday and so far only once today and it is already noon).<br /><br />If any of the other August sleevers have gone through this let me know. I am wondering if I should call the NUT or the Doctor and ask if there is something wrong>

Still losing weight, love handles gone and working on that pouch. Way to go! I went to the doctors yesterday and I am down 8 more pounds since last month! By my BP is still high though. The NP told me that she would like for me to be 50 less by February. Is she nuts? Sweet but nuts! I am not even going to set a goal like that and then be diappointed if I do not meet that goal. She said that this the honemoon phase and the best time to lose the most weight. We will see. It is good to see everyone is heading in the right direction.

Later Loser!

      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.
