Lovin my progress



Recommended Posts

Had gastric sleeve Oct 3, starting weight 301, now 273. Had complication with infection and was slow to get around for a month after, so I'm ecstatic with results thus far. HOWEVER, having hard time getting more than 32 oz fluids a day. Anybody else?

Congrats!!! getting all my Fluid in for me has been easy since about 4 weeks....My surgery was May 16th. I think what helped me is when I started buying the Zepherhills sports bottles of Water....it's something about the squeeze bottle I think.....anyway they are 24oz each and I drink at least three of them a day....I flavor them with MIO drops. I like the lemonaide best....try those bottles!

Congrats on the weight loss so far, I also had a rough first couple weeks was even sent for a 2 hour i.v treatment Thursday and feeling a little better. Idk but my stomach aches when trying to consume just plan Water any temperature after a few steps but surprisingly if I add a couple squirts of crystal light (strawberry lemonade) I've increased my Water intake but a whole 16oz bottle. :) my stomach is super picky I just have to continue the trial and error to figure out what she likes lol. Good luck

      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.
