Any March 2018 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts


I did and 2 weeks post op still do. I’m just so happy things are moving that I don’t care.

Earlier on I was only consuming liquids and also I think some of the medications I take have come into play as well.



I'm 3 weeks post op and I still haven't had a solid BM. But I'm not eating many solid things, nor am I eating a large amount. It's often straight liquid. [emoji21]

I’m with you both, had surgery on 3/27. Discharged last night, still have some pain and gas. They removed band and did sleeve, it’s crazy how trying to drink the smallest amount of Water is difficult.

Had my surgery on Wednesday 3/28, today's Friday. One night stay in hospital and all went reasonably well. Like most, I certainly didn't get any good sleep that first night and I battled a couple of waves of nausea and ohh the pain from the gas. I had trouble differentiating if my pain was from gas or from actual surgery but I guess it was some of both. I didn't really start letting any gas release until about 30 hrs after surgery and then only a little. More gas being released today but it hasn't been as much as I was expecting? But I am sure I have more to go.

Liquids have been going down on schedule.

I did end up sleeping in a recliner last night as lying down flat in bed just wasn't comfortable. Perhaps when all the gas passes that will improve. I did get about 5.5 hours sleep and am getting ready to try and take a nap.

I hope all my fellow March 2018 sleevers are recovering well. Take Care.

      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.
