December 29, 2014 sleevers



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on the 29 and never needed naps but this weekend I needed them badly! I'm not sure what it is but I did go to Walmart and as soon as I got home I had to lay down. I was feeling lightheaded and wanted to just chug so Water. Has anyone else felt this way? I am also adding food to my diet so I'm not sure if that's the case either.

I was sleeved on Dec.30…I am down 22 lbs since surgery. I feel pretty great. It is such a great feeling to not be starving all day long. I am starting to crave food but part of it I feel is out of habit. I am feeling so good that sometimes it feels like I didn't have anything done and my instinct is to walk into the kitchen and pop something in my mouth. I hope things continue on this way…I can't wait to see how this goes!!

I'm having a really hard time getting my Water in today. I'm going back to basics tomorrow. I think I tried solids too fast. I had an egg (couldn't eat all of it) and a little tad of roast. So back to puréed/liquid tomorrow.

Hi guys! Saw the doctor and nutritionist yesterday and I've lost 18 pound since surgery. So happy. I've already had to give away so many clothes because they are too big. I hope everyone else is feeling as good as me.

I finally get to start purees next weeks since my programs requires more liquids initially. So happy.

      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.
