Just had my sleeve surgery today,



Recommended Posts

Just had my Sleeve surgery today, got there at 7:10 am and was on the way home 11.30.

I did not or have not had any nausea at all. my chest hurts,

the walking every hour is tough , because i want to sleep.

nothing to eat for two full days now, will try a Protein Shakes tomorrow, they wanted me to do liquids today.

doing OK, but on the way home noticed all the fast food restaurants. and when i got home, everyone was eating in front of me, and there were some nice looking muffins on the table.

I'm working on not letting that bother me, but I'm still not hungry ,

time to take some drugs and get some sleep.

It amazes me how quickly some of you sleeve folks go home. I didn't even go home that fast after my gallbladder removal, which barely hurt at all post-op.

I wish I could’ve gone home same day. I was ready but they said I would have to stay two nights and I only stayed one.

      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.
