Hello everyone !!

So I had my surgery on August 6 in San Diego , I’m feeling good but in the last couple of days I’ve been feeling a little tired. My incisions are basically healed and during this whole process I did not require any narcotics, only Tylenol , but at this point I have no pain/soreness . I have resumed my walking and stairs , I just need to build my endurance. I started B12 yesterday so hopefully it starts to work soon . I’m doing my best with my Water and Protein Shakes , but I cannot tolerate the broth, so I’ll continue to work on that 😬. Btw I had the sleeve and so far I’m happy with the weight loss results , I’ll list my stats below

Highest weight: 336 lbs

Pre surgery weight : 298

current weight : 281

my goal weight is 190

ithanks everyone for all of your support

Im 5’6

Congrats!! That's great that you are feeling so good this early out. I stopped my pain meds (tylenol with codeine) 3 days post op, 2nd day home. I did take them a few times after for back and joint pain (nothing to do with WLS) because it worked so well for it. I wonder why you cannot tolerate the broth, is it a taste thing? Hope it doesn't last long.

Yeah no meds , the only discomfort I had was the gas , and pretty much walking was the solution , I am definitely grateful things went so smooth, I just gotta get more energy , but I’m listening to my body and just resting when my body says rest , thanks for your well wishes

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
