MrsRoboto 370 Posted July 30, 2015 I was sleeved on Monday and I'm doing great. They all thought I was a rockstar at the hospital, I even got discharged a day early. Yesterday was my first full day home and I drank 3 shakes and got in 58 grams of Protein. I thought I'd be struggling more! Today I'll get 62 grams in. Yesterday I even drove my 3 kids to the dentist 20 minutes away. That was a bit much and I probably shouldn't have done it but I did. Today I had to bring my daughter to and from camp, but that a shorter drive in town. I'm pretty pleased with how well everything is going! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jessiej 70 Posted August 3, 2015 My hubby and I were sleeved on the 27th. We are doing great. The drains get removed tomorrow. I am down a total of 33 lbs and hubby is down 34. All the gas pains are worth it! FYI, the losses are total since pre op. We've lost about 10 post op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1Body2Live 6 Posted August 3, 2015 I feel so much better today! I'm refusing to weigh myself until August 28th which is my 1 month sleeversary just because the numbers on the scale does something to me mentally whether I lose a lot or if I stall. I let those numbers affect me so much that I'd rather just gauge my success with my cloth size and activity levels. I wonder if theres anyone here like me when it comes to the scale?

MrsRoboto 370 Posted August 3, 2015 1 week post-op and I feel awesome, I'm about 98% back to normal. Down 14 pounds since surgery and 39 since starting my journey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AYRW71 26 Posted August 3, 2015 You guys are doing awesome and that's great! Physically I think I'm doing fine. The incisions feel a lot better and it's getting easier to swallow without that burning feeling all the way down. But I don't feel like the eating is progressing at all. Because I was throwing up in the beginning I was told to hold off on the Protein Shakes for a few days, so it was cream of wheat and broth only. Started Protein yesterday, but most disappointing is I don't think I've lost ANYTHING. My husband keeps telling me to be patient, it's only been a week, but I can't help but worry that I'm going to have the same struggles as before. If yon haven't figured it out yet I'm very emotional and a bit of a worry wart :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
