How are the April sleevers doing, any feedback?



Recommended Posts

Hello!!!

I was sleeved on April 17th (New York, insurance pay). I feel good physically, I am doing really good as far as puree-ing and liquids go. I have been getting in all my Vitamins, I always have a bottle of Water near by. Eating (still call it that even though it's liquids) is tuff it's not really comfortable (with the exception of the Greek yogurt today that went down smooth) I am not sure of a full feeling because I actually just stop because it's tuff... I am sure I will work all the feelings out eventually... I have a nutritionist, love her I am pretty much just following what she has said to do, with my two week fast and surgery combined my weight loss is 24 pounds... I am no where near perfect, physically not hungry BUT me and my brain would love to eat Mexican, or Mc Donald's!!! I have been having weird dreams that I did all of this and it won't work??? Just looking for stories and feedback maybe a few new "understanding" friends.

~ I wish all of you nothing but happiness and success-Desiree

I'm doing good; I am with you; I don't feel full but I feel a slight tightness in my sternum and then I quit eating. I keep a bottle of Water with me at all times and ive drank probably 24 oz of water today. For my morning meal I had tunny oatmeal with injury strawberry powder added. I had the same thing for lunch. I only ate half of the package of oatmeal in those two meals. For dinner I had potato Soup. I ate about two oz and then waited and then ate another two oz. I added the chicken flavored unjury powder to try and get some Protein in.

I wonder if retried Beans with milk added to get it to a liquid consistency would be ok... I think I'm going to try that tomorrow

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
