    I was 8 weeks post op. It took me 4 hours to finish a glass of wine. I was fine with it...didn't want to get sick. But make sure you have heartburn meds on hand

    Lost 24 pounds first two weeks post op. I started out at 234 now 210 but I think I lost more this week. But on that note I can hardly eat anything or drink my shakes.

    May sleevers

    KristyNicole replied to lisap's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    It really does suck! I thought mine would have gone away with eating some food but not yet. If you find a solution please let me know, and I will too! I can't stand anything sweet either and I think that is why I can't tolerate the shakes. But I need to get Protein in or I will loose my hair Best of luck to you!!!

    May sleevers

    KristyNicole replied to lisap's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Sleeved May 6th. Down 20 pounds from 234 5'4". I am having a hard time getting my protein in since post op. I can drink plenty of fluids just not protein shakes I have tried several. I just got to purée stage and have tolerated some food. I just have this constant bad taste in my mouth no matter how many times a day I brush my teeth/tounge. Does anyone else have this problem? Congrats on everyone's success

    How's my may 1st sleevers doing?

    KristyNicole replied to kristy26's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I was sleeved May 6th, 1 week ago. I am sipping on water through out the day but I can barely drink my protein shakes I bought a different brand today so fingers crossed. I was 232 day of surgery and I am 218 today. Pretty happy with my results but I need to get this protein thing under control. Still having some pain. Also having pain when I drink at times. But I just try to slow down. One day at a time. Good luck everyone!

    Had my surgery May 6th. Probably going to stay at the hospital one more night. I had severe naseau and quite a bit of pain..walking and sipping. I don't regret it but this was a lot harder than I imagined.

    This pre-op diet sucks!! I am having such a hard time Had my last appointment today to go over everything before surgery on Monday. I am really nervous. I hear you feel really nauseated 18 to 36 hours after surgery. Is this true? I hate feeling sick. But I know it will be worth it!!

    Hi everyone!! Just started my pre op diet this morning!! Getting very excited but nervous too. Realization is starting to settle in and I hope I am making the right choice. I do have one question. What do you tell your children (that are old enough to know you are going to the hospital) what you are going in for? In addition to every part of this life changing event? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you!!
  25. KristyNicole
    Exciting!! You will do great!! I am scheduled for May 6th. Keep us updated on how you are doing.
