Sleeved August 8th, 2016



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on Aug 8th, the first 3 days were really hard with the gas pain and nausea...my upper back and shoulders were hurting so bad... I walked and walked and actually have full relief this morning! The nausea went away on day 4. I feel like this was the best decision now... Big tip from me..... you have to train your brain that you can not swallow as much as you did before at one time it will hurt! I have lost 10 lbs in this first week... Looking forward to life without restrictions due to being super sized.

SW: 275

I was sleeved on the 9th. My first two days at home went just fine, then as you said, I started taking bigger drinks. I got no sleep last night due to gas pain. Today I am back to little sips.

My bad days were in the hospital! Ugh. Home is healing, I was so happy to get home!

I was sleeved on the 10th. I was sipping so slowly I just wasn't getting in all my fluids. Yesterday I made an effort to get my Protein in. Its so weird, I use to like my Protein shakes, but so much is a turn off now. I'm still not getting get near enough fluids and Proteins. Today I will try harder, but I can tell I'm drinking still sips, but a tad quicker together. I've felt a little pressure but nothing too bad.

Me too... I ended up getting the already bottled ones by premier Protein... I like the consistency better then the powder. In see not getting the recommended fluids... We are 3 In a row ... 8th, 9th, and 10th. Lol

      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.
