Hey March 1-6 surgery friends! Mine was 2/28. I have my 1 week follow up tomorrow. How are you all feeling?!

I'm pretty sore... 6 days out and haven't really lost any weight. Not sure why, but I'm following the directions to a T! I feel hungry most of the day and not sure why... I am getting 80+ grams of Protein a day and drinking at least 4 ounces per hour sometimes up to 6... and still hungry. I have one incision that is super soar when I sit down or stand or bend over, but hoping that will subside soon. And I do miss my Diet Dr. Pepper!!! How are you feeling?

I had surgery this morning. It went great. The gas pain is the worst. My biggest problem is that I’m coughing up some blood. The nurses think it’s from the intubation. Maybe something was knicked in the back of my throat. I have some small clots and when I cough one up it gags me. Praying it heals quick.

Surgery went well. I have very little pain. No nausea. I had a problem coming out of anesthesia but I was told I might have a autoimmune disorder I have to go for testing 3/25 with my dr. But as for the surgery everything went great and I feel great. Went shopping today for a birthday party I have this weekend.

That’s great that you are getting out an about already! From what I’ve read walking is the key. Well done!

I weighed in at 247 this morning! 🙌🏼🙌🏼 I cannot believe I was 270 just two weeks ago at my pre op appt! Surgery weight (3/7) was 258.8. I know I won’t lose this much this fast all the time, but I will take it when I can get it! 🙏🏼 How are my other early March sleevers doing?

I weighed in at 278 at my preop about 3 weeks ago. My scale had me at 256 (surgery had me at 260) 3/12. My scale has me at 253 today. I’m waiting impatiently for 249. I start full liquids tomorrow. Can start getting in some Protein and off just Powerade and Gatorade.

That’s great! You will hit 249 before you know it (and then wave goodbye as you leave it in the dust!).

      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.
