Question for all post op vets ( at least 2 years post op or longer)



Recommended Posts

Drinking Water not a problem. Sleeved 08/01/2014. Dense meat will aways be a problem. I cannot eat heavy sauces with Pasta at all. That is a blessing. I am still moving forward towards my goals.

I haven't been here in at least a year. Why are all the vets gone? What happened? PM Me. I had gastric sleeve nov 2013. I got down to about 175 lb and then bounced up to 194lb around year 3. I am now back on track and back to 183lb. I do some 5:2 days and I really try to just put fuel in my body. The more you get comfortable with hunger and that it's not as scary as it seems at first. Your body will eventually adjust to not eating every time you have a little hunger. I drink a lot of liquids, and I still drink Protein shakes for lunch a lot. It's just easy, and I get liquids and Protein.

It's a shame to hear the people with experience are gone for some reason.

      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.
