My sleeve surgery seems almost too easy. So far.



Recommended Posts

All this encouraging info makes me so much less scared. Thank you! I am scheduled for my sleeve tomorrow morning at 6:30 and I am praying for a recovery like you all have had. I have lost 16lbs just since the first of the year and hope to lose 100 over the course of this year post op.

I wish you all the best! I'm now 9 days out from surgery and honestly feel better than i did before surgery. I have experienced improvements in all the pre op pains i had, for example back pain. I'm so unbelievably happy that i did this! I am sure you will do great too!

So I was sleeved Friday and honestly feel fine tonight, just a bit sore in the stomach like I did too many crunches. I can easily drink liquids and even eat 5.4oz of Greek yogurt in one sitting. I sure hope I get the restriction feeling when I start solids or else this will all be for nothing because right now I honestly can't tell the difference.

      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.
