Sleeved Sept 15,2014 lost about 10lbs so far, no pre-opt diet needed , I had kind of an emergency situation and no time for it, I had existing lap band surgery in 07 that was causing many problems and had to be removed asap so they removed it and did a revision to the sleeve. I'm starting to get hungry for real food so I ate some cheese BIG MISTAKE! Extreme Dumping syndrome! I'm afraid to leave my house! I have not had any pain medicine since I have been home bc it makes me sick. I'm still in a great deal of pain but am healing.I go back to work on Monday and I'm worried.

Just under two weeks after surgery. No real issues at the moment (injecting myself with Clexane each morning sucks but tomorrow is the last day of that).

Be moving to puree in the next few days (yay!) the liquid phase has been OK, just a bit boring. I'm pretty sure I haven't been getting enough protien as I can't stomach (heh!) Protein Shakes or powders but I'll be getting plenty of meat and legumes soon so I'm not too worried.

So far I've dropped 20kg (about 44lbs) since my first appointment with the surgeon.

Hi Jen, I had the same operation, i know how you feel I had the same operation. Best thing I can suggest is keep up the pain medication. I am 11 days out now and feel a million times better. Tried a hero day the other day where I had no pain relief made my pain so much worse. Walking is good gets the blood flowing and heat packs. Thinking of you.

      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.
