36 Hours Post Sleeve

[aSleeveStory 128]

Still a bit sore in my mid-section, but pain meds make it manageable. I've had nearly three full bottles of Water, some thinned Protein shake, and a bit of unsweetened apple sauce.

Also took one probiotic pill.

Hoping to get another solid night of sleep and to be a bit more human tomorrow (Sunday).

Took a very brief shower tonight. That was nice.

That's all for now...

Thanks. So far so good. I need to try to hit 40 grams of Protein tomorrow. I didn't have much yet, just a third of a glass or so.

What brand of unflavored Protein did you order?

What brand of unflavored Protein did you order?

I've been diluting Lean Body shakes with almond milk. Zero sugar. 40 grams per bottle but I'm not sure how much I've had with the dilution.

I do have done unflavored. Didn't think about adding that to my Water. Good idea.

Day 5: Feeling quite a bit better. Hit my Protein goals today for the first time. unjury chicken Soup to the rescue... SO much easier to get down than the diluted stuff I've been trying.

Yesterday, I was feeling a bit crappy and knowing I hadn't hit my numbers yet once... one serving of Unjury chicken Soup and I felt better within 20-30 minutes. Mircale!

Also hit the scale today... and was shocked. 421.8 down from 432.8 on Sunday... that's eleven pounds in four days. Nuts!

Day 7: Feeling almost 100% normal today... lots of energy... almost no soreness. No more pain meds. Doing quite well. Having ALL my Protein each day... and today I even snuck in (most of) a tall iced late from Starbucks. I was worried about how my stomach would do with the coffee... but it's been having coffee since I was 10... so it took it like a champ. Just sipped it slowly as I have everything else and all was well.

Weight loss continues... down 2.8 lbs from just yesterday... and counting. Really shocked that I'm losing so much right now, but thrilled as well.

Checking in... 104 down and counting. Energy coming back. Feeling pretty good.

Watch the Starbucks drinks. They have massive amounts of calories...
