12 DAYS POST OP NEED HELP



Recommended Posts

would love to get a sample...having trouble finding their website. usually google works but having trouble on this one...thanks in advance

Just a heads up - if anyone is interested in the GENEPRO, if you contact them on their website they'll mail you a sample for free. Just like carol, I didn't believe it was going to actually be flavorless, so I didn't want to drop the $$$ on a test. Luckily the sample came and amazed me.

I mix it with cold Water and use some Water enhancers to make it whatever flavor I want to.

I am almost 6 mints postop and totally know what your going through. For the first 2 months I couldn't tolerate anything it seemed like. And tried sooo many different shakes I felt like a GNC store. They all smelled like baby formula and made me gag.. Still do. I still can't get in all the Protein or Water I am supposed to. I do try my best to eat protein first but know that bite or two of starch takes up some of the space more protein could have filled! I have averaged 10lbs a month and am quite happy with that. Just know the way you feel is something a lot of us go through and it will get easier every day.

You will not get hungry for a long time. You have to make yourself eat at specified times. If you don't want to be sick, you will start taking your Vitamins and drinking your Water. This is not an easy fix. It takes a lot of hard work! Most doctors make you drink 64 ozs. Of water so doing 32 should be a breeze. Try using a straw. That worked well for me. I liked lean body Protein. The ready made kind. It is lactose free. banana flavored was my favorite.

I had the exact same problem! Still having problems 22 months in. Just know, even though it is very hard right now. In the end it WILL be worth it. Even though I am still having problems, I would do it again.

Kimerick2008@gmail.com if you want a surgery buddy. I would LOVE the support! I still really need it. I found this website a week ago. So happy I did.

Just wish I found it sooner.

Good luck and I hope I hear from you.

Kim

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
