Looking for others who are here in St Louis that have recently been sleeved. My surgery was July 19 an just wanting to go through this transition with someone else that knows what I am going through. I will be going to try and try the support group at Des Peres hospital (where my surgery was) but I really do not want to walk into the room the first time by myself. And most people do not consider me shy but with this I am.

I am almost 4 weeks po-op and a normal meal is about 4ounces. I am finding that a Protein Shake on the way to work, a mid morning snack, lunch, afternoon snack, and dinner. I still do not eat anything after dinner. The last few days I have been able to take in 53 g Protein and about 450 calories. Hope it helps

I have shopped around. I get my regular Vitamins gummies from costco, the rest I am able to get from Medco cheaper than any other place.

You may want to try and drink as much Protein Shake as possible since Protein will give you energy. I found premium Protein Shakes, 30 g protein for the 11 oz shake instead of Adkins that only has 10 g protein. Good luck, it will get better.
