Feb 9th & 10th sleevers...how you doing?



Recommended Posts

1. How do you feel? Any issues?

Not feeling too bad. The only real pain left is from a bulge under the incision on the right side of my tummy, where my stomach was removed from.

2. How is your water/protein intake?

Water intake is ok but I'm having a really difficult time getting in enough Protein.

3. Have you had your first follow-up appt? How did it go? If not, when is your appt?

My first follow up appointment is on the 25th. So this upcoming wednesday

4. What stage food are you on (full liquids, purees, etc.)?

Liquids but I have been adding in some pureeds as well because liquids dont sit too well in my stomach

5. Have you hit buyer's remorse yet or still glad you did it?

My buyers remorse hit as soon as I came out of anesthesia, but it is getting less and less each day

6. Lastly - how much have you lost since the surgery?

since surgery about 13 pounds :)

Hi. I'm no here. Longtime lurker, but just acrually signed up about ten minutes ago.

Sleeved on the 9th

1. How do you feel? Any issues? Nonissues. No pain. Feeling really good at this point.

2. How is your water/protein intake? I routinely hit the 80 for Protein grams. And Water on days I don't work is barely at 64 oz. But on days I work it's tons more.

3. Have you had your first follow-up appt? How did it go? If not, when is your appt? I did last week. It went really well and just felt routine-ish.

4. What stage food are you on (full liquids, purees, etc.)? pureed. I move to mushies in one week.

5. Have you hit buyer's remorse yet or still glad you did it? The first week I totally did. But I was over it by day 5.

6. Lastly - how much have you lost since the surgery? Since surgery I'm down 15lbs.

I was sleeved on the 10th. I had some issues during surgery but since I am good. The problem with me is I don't follow instructions well. Since I have been sleeved I was on liquids the first week, but this week went kind of crazy. I had a glass of wine and a piece of pizza yesterday. Why am I trying to defeat what I want to accomplish. Help.

      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.
