3 days post sleeve



Recommended Posts

I am in the same boat. My surgeon says that it’s not an issue at all. I consumed an entire cup of Soup broth in about 35 mins and panicked a bit. I was also able to eat an entire jello-cup in 30. So I decided to manually force pace myself just in case. I stretch it out to 1 hour or just serve myself 2-3oz.

If it's liquid, it'll basically go through you. Once you start regular food, you'll find you feel full very quickly--but you mostly won't feel full until then.

I was the same and was starting to get a wee bit concerned. Puréed food soon put a stop to that concern though 😂

Is it possible to take in too much liquids??? I’m on liquids only but can finish a entire cup of liquid not in one sitting but over an hour or so!!!



You cannot never take in too much liquid. Just pace yourself, you must take it slow, soon you will be in the puree stage and be super thankful lol, I know I sure did get tired of liquids all the time. Any phase really gets tiring, at 7 WKs post op, I was restricted to only cooked Protein and Protein Shakes, they said no more cheese for me :( I love cheese lol but I guess it for the better to push the weight loss. Hang in there, all of you, it does get better! Oh and make sure you walk, walk & walk!

      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.
