I haven't tried the isopure I was just drinking the high protein low carb slim fast and the syntrax. Today i had 1/2 an egg and 1/2 a sausage patty for breakfast and some tuna fish for lunch. I think I'm starting to figure out when I'm full before its too much! So far both times i ate today I did not get sick! How are you doing with vitamins. I need to start taking mine during the day because i usually wait till night and then i feel so bad i can't take them cause i can't swallow one more pill.

I took pain meds until my drain was out at 7 days post op. I just took them less each day also. I was having definite incision pain and pain from my drain inside my abdomen I really didn't have much gas pain.

I have four kids. My oldest is 11 the birthday boy will be 8 then i have a 5 yr old girl and a 3 yr old boy. I have been able to drink pretty normally now. I just cannot tolerate protein shakes anymore and i know I'm not able to eat enough to get my protein in so i know my hair will be falling out soon!

I was sleeved 4/22 and although it was in my pre op paperwork my doctor told me they don't see any problems with the sleeve pt taking nsaids so i can have them sparingly.

I asked if he puts his pt on meds for gallbladder and reflux.

Today is my first post sleeve birthday! On my way to a new life and a new year for me! I am 15 days post op so we are going for a walk with the dog and kids. No cake for me! What did everyone else do for their first birthdays?

What do you do for snacks when you go to the movies? I've never been to the movies without having popcorn!

I told everyone. I figured when i was off for 4-6 weeks and then started dropping pounds they would figure it out. I've had so much support and encouragement from family and co-workers. Plus a nurse and i had it done at the hospital i work at so it was nice to have some friends come visit me when i was recovering. It is everyone's perogative What they want to do but i knew if i told my friends at work eventually it would get to everyone so i told everyone when it came up.

Congrats! I was up every morning in the hospital at 4 am walking! It really is one of the best times to get out and walk when not so many people are there. Good luck and here's to a speedy recovery.

I took my pepcid around 5 pm instead of 9 because most nights it was feeling like i had a deep burning in my chest. Tonight I'm not feeling as bad as the last two nights but I'm sure i just jinxed myself!!!

I feel so good when i wake up then by the time 8pm rolls around i start feeling nauseous and plain old bad. I am 14 days postop anyone else having this problem?

I am 13 days postop and have 4 kids and feel your pain. I have been making most of my kids meals and usually after i serve them dinner i go to bed cause I've been feeling crummy in the evening. The thing that has helped me is that I've been completely honest with my kids they know what I had done and why i had it and they offer me food but ask me if i can have it first. They really have been considerate.

I am 10 days postop and had 1/2 cheeseburger today no bun took small bits and chewed very well. I had no issues with it.

After 18 months I go annually until whenever they tell me to stop. At least 5 years for my insurance.

My doctor has his patients on pepcid twice a day for 6 months along with the actigall for 6 months postop

I was surprised with the egg cause i had a whole container of yogurt and i was fine.

I am only 10 data out and the foamies happened to me yesterday. Only ate about a tbsp of cottage cheese and a tbsp of dinty moore beef stew i didn't feel bad just all of a sudden the up foam and then was fine.

I was sleeved the 22nd and tried my first egg a couple days ago. My doctor knows about it and he was fine with it. For me the full liquids stage is 1-2 weeks. I was doing fine on the fills so i advanced after a week.

I was having a lot of pain until i got my drain out which was 1week postop. Since my drain came out I've just been sore not in bad pain.

That happened to me the first egg i had too. I felt fine eating it and 30min later i was hiccuping and nauseous. I just took a nap and when i woke up i felt fine.

I am taking 500 mcg of b12 once a day and a flinstone chewable once a day

I still have a drain on my right side so that side does hurt more for me but laying on that side actually feels better i just make sure my drain isn't underneath me. I go back and forth between the couch and bed with naps and nighttime sleeping. The first night or two i slept propped up with a pillow behind my back one behind my head and one under each arm.

My doctor told me it could take a week or two to get the recommended amount of protein and fluid ounces in.

Does everyone going back after a couple days have a drain? I will still have my drain in until Tuesday.
