Thanks everyone

Feeling great ???? love my sleeve

Even if you havent had the surgery yet what song makes you feel powerful and motivates you...I think my Theme song is

KATY PERRY "ROAR"

That's my theme song I loved it the minute I heard it

Both my nutritionist and surgeon said no straws for like 6months but I've been using straws since 1week out my surgery was 7-11-13 ... No problems ...

I was sleeved on the 29th. And here at 15 days out my biggest struggle is with fatigue. I am soooooo tired. I thought this procedure was to help me have MORE energy. I have MUCH LESS!!!!!

Don't worry I was the same way and I just hit my month post op and I got my energy back ... Just make sure ur keeping hydrated

I find it most helpful when others make their food diary visible to your friends. You have to go into settings/diary settings and select friends only under diary setting. The default is private.

If you share your food diary with friends' date=' please add me. Username rlindameyerhoeffer

I share my food diary

eggs don't like eggs now !!

Maybe try a different brand with more Protein in it.... Like pure Protein Shakes or premier ... chicken Soup works good too ... With the pre op diet ..

You look great !!!

You look great thanks for sharing

Are u doing Protein Shakes also ??? ....

I cried when I got the phone call !!! this is life changing but perfectly normal good luck on your journey

I use to love eggs before surgery now !! I can't even smell them ...

My full feeling is a pain in my chest. Not heart attack pain but like a tightness (something stuck in my chest) as if the food didn't go all the way down. I also start to hiccup or belch - not that sexy but hey' date=' it's my new thing.

As for feeling full...I 100% agree with what Richard said. If you are content without the full feeling, go with that. Also remember that it takes months for your sleeve to heal and sometimes we don't feel full because there is still a bit of swolen soreness/numbness that is going on.

Now's the time to really weigh and measure.[/quote']

I feel the same as twinsmama it's like something is stuck and I hiccup and burp :/ ... I measure everything I was sleeved on 7-11

Every bodies amount of Protein is different that's why we have to work with our Nut.. Because it changes as u go thru your weight loss and the amount of exercise we do ...in the beginning I was @ 100gr of protein then as I loss weight it has come down ,, after surgery it changed again ... & when I start working out its going to change again

What can you possibly eat that you have time to both prepare and consume that has the required 60-80 G Protein a day?

I'm still on shakes and purée foods so far haven't had a day yet that I don't reach it ... I log it on my fitness pal

Everyone's tolerance to pain is different ... I used mine 4days and I was good but I did have a lot of nausea and I was so tired all i did was sleep , now I'm better but I'm still sleeping like 10hrs at night ... It's normal if u needed take it

I'm a little over 2 weeks post & I'm about 70-80grams of Protein and not at 64oz of fluids yet but almost 50 oz of fluids

Wednesday is Sleeve day for me! I'm stocked up on Jello' date=' Whey Protein powder and SF clear liquids. Packing light for the hospital: toothbrush, chapstick, flip flops and the little pillow for my belly =) It seems like the worst part is the gas! Any last minute advice from you early July sleevers??[/quote']

chicken broth or veggie broth and sf ice pop that's what made me feel better ice pops .. I'm a little over 2 weeks post op & I'm still on sf ice pops

How long do it take to get a order from unjury?

There pretty quick ...

I did the same thing ... So I ate a few just chewed it and spit it out LOL

Try the sf ice pops the first few days that's how I got in my liquids , and warm broth helped ,good luck it will get better

I had surgery on July 11 & I'm still very tired ... I had my 2 week post op visit today & he said its normal we had major surgery and our bodies are still healing ... He said not to expect to be back to normal till about 4 -6 weeks from surgery so hopefully I got another 2 weeks and I'm good ... He said to make sure I'm getting my Protein Vitamins and fluids in !!! Good luck

My doc says it can cause gas that's why no straw .. But I've been using a straw since 5 days post op ... I'm 12 days out & I don't have any problem ... I kinda get my liquids in easier i just take it slow ...

I had to buy them
