  1. I was sleeved June 5th. I was doing great until mid october. I cheated once and then just fell off the wagon and got run over! Ive been eating EVERYTHING they tell you not to, and havent had a protein shake in over a month! I have to get back on track! Im gonna use my fitness pal. How many calories should I have a day? Thanks for any help.
  2. Ha!! I have you beat. I am 1 month out and have lost 7 lbs. Talk about being depressed, Im starting to wish I never did this
  3. I personally can taste the unflavored in everything except orange juice. I had bought a container of this so I made myself use it, but could only handle it in oj. After 3 days of 4 glasses a day my mouth was RAW. I bought a container of vanilla and only like it in coffee and oj. I bought choc and drink it with milk. They areall good in smoothies but I quit making smoothies because I can never finish them and end up wasting my protein and fresh fruits. i
  4. I am one month post surgery and have an appointment for a bodywrap tomorrow. I was reading about it online and it says you can burn up to 1200 calories in a session. Since I don't consume this many calories a day do you still think it's okay to have my spa day and get my wrap??
  5. Maybe need more calories??? Huh....Right now I'm not really hungry so I usually just drink my protein (UNJURY) maybe have a couple bites of watermelon or 1 egg....
  6. I am 1 month post surgery on the 4th and have only lost 5 lbs!!! I am working out and eating right....What is going on????WHY HAVE I NOT LOST MORE????? I am starting to get depressed p.s. I have checked my inches too and they are not moving very well either....

  8. My Dr. gave me the option of one or two nights also. You may not have that option come discharge time. It will depend on your labs and if your up and moving. I had to also be cleared by a PT. I was cleared to go home after one night and wanted to because 1. the morphine drip made me very nauseas 2. I was not allowed to get up and walk alone. I had AWFUL gas pain and in the middle of the night when I wanted to get up and walk nobody would come so I was stuck in bed! It really depends on how you feel. I was happy to go home. The only bad thing about at home for me was that I couldn't sleep lying down flat, it was much more comfortable for me to sleep in the hospital bed where I could adjust the head. So I spent 4 days in a recliner GOOD LUCK!!
  9. My dr only had me on 1 week of liquid. My 2nd week I could have cream soup, yogurt, pudding, milk. I cheated on my 2nd week and had a scrambled egg...it gave me alot of pain I cheated yesterday and had a slice of toast and had zero problems. Today I ate a slice of cheese and had no problem. All of this is fat free/sugar free of course:)
  10. I had my surgery on June 3 and I had a slice of toast for the 1st time and thought I would be stuffed after. BUT I WASNT!! I could had eaten another one if I wanted this is bad news!! Why am I not full? Now Im worried I wont lose weight because for some reason Im not full. Anyone else still hungry after eating a small part of food?
  11. alright Juners how many of ya have been sleeved and how are you doing?
  12. Dr says everything went well and I only had a 1 night stay in hospital. I am home now with awful gas pain! I read that a heating pad helps alot, so I tried and it does work. But is it okay to put the heat on the surgery site? Also, we should be drinking 64 oz of Fluid a day.... It is 2 pm and I have gotten down 9 oz!! Anyone else have this problem/?
