Recommended Posts

Sleeved on the 29th...Not having a problem getting the Protein i the Water is not working well...I'm only gettin in about 32oz. I'm still having a little pain at the main incision site. I tried an oz of cream of chicken Soup today and it was terrible and salty!...I tried cootage cheese with applesauce and it was terrible. I bought some sugar free pudding going to try an oz of that later when I take my meds. I stll haven't pooped yet....how long do that usually take?

Man you guys sound like your doing great.. I was 3/22 and I still can't get all my Water in. That's all my dr cares about but I am terribly hungry a few times a day so I do get in a little Protein or a Popscicle to stop the hunger. Im worn out and exshausted. All I do is sleep and drink Water :(

I had a revision done on the 29th. From band to sleeve. So far I can tolerate almost anything. Except today I tried some watered down hummus and felt terribly sick after. That was the 1st real time I've had any nausea, or thought I might throw up. I'm terrified of vomitting, and rupturing a suture. I'm still struggling to get all my Water in. But so far, I've had blended Beans, oatmeal, avocado w/ plain Greek yogurt, and Protein shakes. Everything is blended super fine. Maybe the hummus was too thick still, or too heavy. Activity wise, I can walk around stores and the mall, but have to take it very slow, or I'll feel faint. I have a lot of head hunger, and feel like I need to chew things. Luckily, I haven't had much gas pains, walking seems to help.

I was sleeved on tuesday, 29th and I am still very sore. When I drink anything, I feel it go down and right at the bottom of my sternum I get this pain that makes my back arch. I invasion it's the drink entering my stomach, but I really don't know that for sure... happens with small sips... anyone else experience this???

That happens to me too. It's been better today but the first two days it was real painful. Kind of like a lump in your chest.

I've noticed also it hurts drinking really cold or really hot things. Room temperature is the only thing I can get down. Which is odd because I used to hate anything room temperature and would need everything ice cold pre op. If your drinking cold stuff that may be the reason for the pain

Getting my Water and Protein in is the hardest for me. I'm 6 days out and today I was able to walk around a lake near my house which was almost 3 miles, the other day I walked around the entire zoo. I was uncomfortable at times but I was able to push through it. Today, is the best I've felt; not feeling light headed anymore. I was having some pain around my largest incision, mainly when I was sitting in the car driving. But when I am standing, I feel nothing. I also found room temperature stuff works best for me. I get tummy aches when I drink anything too cold or too hot which is super weird because I usually refuse to drink anything without ice or super cold. One day at a time is what I keep telling myself. I'm trying to avoid getting on the scale but it's hard not to. I was at 196 on surgery day and today I'm at 187. Woohoo!!

Today finally turned the corner. I was able to do a decent long walk, even clean up a little. Still some healing needed but today I felt like I was moving forward not back. YAY!!!!

I had my surgery on the 30th of March and I think I'm doing pretty well. I stopped taking pain medication on the morning of the 1st and have felt little discomfort. I'm getting my fluids and my Protein in but still waiting for my first bowel movement. I am missing solid foods but feeling very full with what I am taking him. I wish you all a wonderful journey

      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.
