Kinda wish mine was all at once like yours but mine was so emergent to be taken out. Me too had my band about 10 years and was sleeved on the 13th just realized I put 12th before I still have brain fog. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But when I got home have had my on and off days sometimes, a suggestion to you after surgery when u get home and. Are trying to drink and get your Protein in get the clear juice-like Protein Drinks. They will count as liquids and your Proteins. Oh and one more thing is I was feeling hungry when I see food or smell food but couldn’t get it down if I wanted too,that will pass too! They have me on Isopure each bottle 40 grams Protein. But it it till day three to get beyond just Water Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Went in to get the Gastric sleeve surgery & they didn’t do it because I had a huge Hiatal hernia. They repaired that and didn’t do the surgery. Has anyone had this happen to them? Wow. My surgeon repaired my hiatal hernia during the surgery. When are they saying they will complete the sleeve? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stylish_tylish 4 Posted February 18, 2018 Wow. My surgeon repaired my hiatal hernia during the surgery. When are they saying they will complete the sleeve?No they didn’t tell me anything. I have s follow up visit next week. I will find out then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TooNuNu 11 Posted February 18, 2018 Seems like so much longer than a week and 3 days. I'm on full liquids until the 21st and I am tasting those mashed potatoes and baked fish that I'll be able to have in my dreams! At first I was experiencing quite a bit of hunger (or so I thought) but after remembering to take my antacid every day, most of that went away. Now I'm just focusing on getting my Protein in. Looking for a small unflavored Protein Powder to experiment with. I know I'll be able to get a lot more in if I can mix it in the Soups that I eat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
