I was sleeved on June 25th. I didn't have to do a pre-op diet. I am down 30 lbs as of today. Still on mushy foods. Only able to eat about 3 to 4 teaspoons at a time. I try to eat nothing but protein to keep up my energy level. i still rely on protein shakes to get it all in. i do drink decaf coffee. Actually had a decaf skinny cinnamon dolce latte from Starbucks yesterday. It was heaven!!!
Dr Iqbal was my surgeon also. He was absolutely GREAT!!!!!! My hospital stay was great. Besides the pain right after surgery, the entire experience was GREAT!
I was sleeved on the 25th and I have lost 22 lbs. I am still on liquids and find it impossible to get all my protein in each day. Thank goodness for Unjury chicken soup. It has been my daily protein intake. The protein shake drinks are almost unbearable. I do however, enjoy special K protein water, it has about 5 grams of protein. I can do yogurt too, thats another 5 grams of protein. Get to start mushy foods on the 16th. Cant wait !!!!!
