I cant believe I'm 2 and a half weeks post OP!



Recommended Posts

6/24/19 was my rny surgery date. The first 2 weeks was emotionally hard for me. Thinking of all the things I can’t have. Not being able to go out to eat like I used to. Just feeling sorry for myself. But since I have been advanced to the next stage of my post op diet I feel much better physically and emotionally. I have eaten some things I am not supposed to. Even though it’s just a little nibble I feel so bad and get upset with myself. I feel like I’m not losing as fast as others but in reality I think I am doing ok. My clothes don’t fit me anymore and I have way more energy. I’m am starting to accept my new life with my new pouch. It’s been a roller coaster of emotions in a short time but I’m glad I went through with it.

I'm 11 days post op and still on full liquid diet til July 20. Yesterday was a tough day for me where I just missed food, biting, and chewing. I got through it with warm broth and sf popsicles, but couldn't stomach another Protein Shake. I'm hoping things will get better once i can have puree foods.

It's exciting, isn't it? I'm 7 months post-op sleeve now and so happy I did the surgery.

I'm 12 days out, and weight isn't falling off me fast, but then I didn't expect it to. At least it's a steady downward trend

I'm having no problems with anything, though I am tired of shakes. 2 a day is fine, but that 3rd one is not pleasant. Mashed potatoes with shaved ham tomorrow though, as I move into purees!!

      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.
