Slave to Senor Sleeve

You might actually appreciate being lactose intolerant after surgery... constipation is a problem for a long time but may that lactose will keep you going ;)

It's Halloween and I ate chocolate... Lotsa... Wrote in MFP, tomorrow new day. PS kit kats still taste awesome!

I was sleeved on July 8 th. down 56 lbs, SW 255, hit onderland this week! Still have a lot restriction and get my 60g protein. Exercise 4x week. Skin sagging and losing tons of hair. I'm like the OP, can't see the difference but everyone notices the change. I think it's bc in my head I always looked like this but thought all my photos were bad angles or bad days.

Glue lasts anywhere from 5-15 days. The glue is for the outside skin, you have internal dissolvable sutures on you incisions. They take 2weeks to dissolve but the outside abdominal skin will knit together in about week. So don't pull of the glue, don't use lotions or cream on them either. If it starts to loosen, leave alone, it will fall by itself. You might even see clear suture sticking out, which is normal, don't pull it. Hope that helps!

I'm a fan of the Jay Robb whey protein and yes they are pricey. I also just bought Optinum Nutrition 100% Natural in chocolate and it's pretty decent ( I add hazelnut sugar free syrup and instant expresso powder to make a morning mocha). It's also a little cheaper since its huge container. Both are sold in vitamin shoppe.

I ate chocolate and potato chips anf OJ while on vacation one month postop . I had to be sneaky about it since all my travel mates knew I had surgery. Funny thing is, I haven't wanted to that again (and haven't touched a chip since).

Heating pad and mint tea! Never had nausea, only pain on first night.

Thanks! Glad ur going well. Do u go to ant support groups?

Hi Flower girl, just out of curiosity, how much was ur self pay with Jacobs? I had insurance but friend was thing of self paying.

I also was sleeved by Dr. Jacobs at JMH south. Really great experience. 9wks out down 42lbs. Big plus, he has NO preop diet!

July 8th

Soup Woman, your blog receives look amazing! I am a soup lover and my freezer is always full of homemade stock. I'm glad to see there are sleevers who eat soup regularly, I read somewhere that soup is not recommended bc its like drinking and eating at same time. I miss my Soups and hope to incorporate it more in my diet. Please keep posting recipes!
