2 week follow up appointment



Recommended Posts

I'm sitting here at my docs office and wanted to update you all.

I have been "promoted" to soft solids .. yayyyyy

Day of surgery I weight 231lbs and today I weight 215lbs

Due to me vomiting so much and the constant nausea they have extended my short term disability 2 more weeks vs going back tomorrow. (Vomited in the office 🤢)

After going over my food journal they realize I'm very short on my protein.... but it's because I'm scared to eatttttttttt 🤢

My doctor is mostly concerned about ulcers with all the pressure my pouch, I have to come in tomorrow to the IV clinic for some fluids and lab work

Im sorry you have been so sick. Protein can be hard to get. I had to get some supplements and add it to everything. I found something called protein boost at the dollar store that has 10 g of protein and it wasn't bad to drink at all. Like the consistency of juice or Water. I'm going to go back and get more to have on hand for those particularly hard days.
I hope you feel better soon! Keep us posted.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
