Hi everyone!
For those who don't know me, I got sleeved on April 28 at Florida Medical Center @ Ft. Lauderdale. My doctor never made me do a pre-op diet. On the day of surgery, I was on my highest weight which was 253.. My height is 5'7.. 12 days out and I have already lost 24 lb.. My weight this morning was 229!
First two days were pretty hardcore, my abdominal area hurt a lot more than I thought it would. I felt very bloated. I started walking about three hours after I got out of surgery. I barely could take deep breathes or cough because my left side hurt too much. Third day, no pain at all.. maybe a little around the incisions. Now I'm feeling great!
I have been following my post-op diet very strictly though. Getting my 64 oz of Water down, consuming 70-80 grams of Protein (I use Isopure, which is carb free). I am trying to avoid carbs as much as possible. At most, I am probably consuming about 10 grams of carbs per day.
On the first 8 days I was walking around two miles everyday.. Lately I've been feeling a bit weak,, but besides that I am feeling AWESOME! Clothes isn't tight anymore:001_cool:
I already know that this is the best decision I have made.. I regret not having it done before.
Feel free to ask anything and thanks for reading!
