Men that had sleeve



Recommended Posts

I had sleeve 10 days ago and doing great. My husband is having sleeve today doctor said men have harder time. Just wondering if any men have any problems?

Not at all...4 weeks today and down 30 lbs since surgery. Cravings are limited and are easily silenced by Protein. If he's talking about vigor of workouts or lifting...then maybe, especially in the early going, where those activities are generally off-limits. But even that should resolve quickly. I am starting to worry about muscle loss, but will be going back to the Iron today to put an end to that.

My husband and I were both sleeved last year on September 11. We both had an incredibly easy time of it. He has had a very slight bit of acid reflux that he didn't have before, but other than that, it's been wonderful.

Everyone is the same in that we are all different. Maybe he was telling you that as sort of a joke, men are well known for being medical wimps ;-)

Thanks everyone .. I talked to doctor he said he meant men's organs larger and makes surgery little more difficult .

He is doing well waiting on a room.

Praise to God I've had 0 nausea. Having trouble getting all Water & Protein in. But doing great for 10 days out

I was sleeved on 9/1 and just got out of the hospital today. So far so good. Had some discomfort from gas, but otherwise things went pretty smoothly. Its unbelievable how little Fluid it takes to feel full.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
