Any February Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

I have my 1 week post op appointment later today. Thankfully! I'm hungry and don't really feel all the restriction other ppl have talked about. Doing well with my diet though. Happy to be on full liquids, which includes cream Soups so hopefully the doctor will tell me the rest of this is normal.



Isopure makes an unflavored one as well as genepro

Hi All! I was sleeved on Valentines Day. I’m home and doing well but the clear liquid diet is so hard. I just want a cracker lol! I have my follow up on Wednesday so hopefully I can move to the puréed diet and get the rest of my staples out. I have a really red rash on my abdomen. I’ve been taking Benadryl and Benadryl cream. Anyone know why this might be? Meds maybe? It itches so bad...

Embrace the suck and know that this is a time when you're burning the most and eating the least!

Do you want a theory or in my case a testimony? I am allergic to Hibiclens, the red liquid in the aqua bottle they give you to scrub with before surgery. Found that out before my last knee surgery,when my whole left leg looked like it was sunburned. When I have my Rny I don't know how they'll prep me, Maybe paint me with Betadine or something else. Oh Dr Miller's a smart dude, I'm sure he'll figure it all out.

Are you sure you're not allergic to Betadine? Many are. Do you have an iodine sensitivity?

Let me know if you find one I would love to have an unflavored Protein.< br />

I'm using Life Balance Pure Egg White Protein. Here is a link with some reviews, but I buy it at Trader Joe's for about $8 I think https://www.amazon.com/Life-Balance-Pure-Eggwhite-Protein/dp/B01J4ET1B6

I read that a lot of the other unflavored Proteins like Isopure, has a taste many don't like. And GENEPRO is controversial, and makes some dubious claims. The Life Balance isn't flavorless, it tastes like egg whites, so pretty neutral. It also doesn't mix well unless it's blended. But it's not a big deal to me to stick it in the Ninja with whatever I want to add it to

      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.
