Sleeved On The 27Th, And I Feel Strangely Good!
Almostthere34 replied to sooner boomer's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Apparently some of us have a very uneventful experience. Welcome to the group. I woke up in so little pain I was convinced I hadn't been sleeved. I made the nurse read my chart. I never filled my pain script from the hospital. I guess we are just lucky or More so blessed. If only I could get the chewing thing. Two small bites and I am full. -

I know exactly how you feel. I was sleeved on the 15th and I am getting the same questions. I hear the disappointment when I say 10 lbs or so. I lost 10 on the pre-op diet so I total 20 or so total but I swear people expect you to be skinny by the next time you see them.

Premier Protein is the only drink I like post surgery everything else has a disgusting whey smell. They sell chololate and vanilla at Sams Club. -
Frozen Yogurt Anyone?

It was on my postoperative food list. Sugar free nonfat. I am on day 14. You could add a scoop to some powder and make a yummy shake. -

1-Week Weight Loss
Almostthere34 replied to sid_n_reagans_mommy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 7 days postop and I think I only lost two pounds. I've decided to leave the scale alone. The only thing I can think is that I am retaining fluids. I am barely getting 400 calories. I am going to get more fluids in. -
I bought a golds gym elliptical and it was so cheap and creaky. I got it from Walmart and gave it away for free. I always felt like I was too big for it. It creaked even though it had been oiled. I eventually bought a refurbished lifefitness elliptical online. So much better. I want a treadmill next.
