Sleeved: 8/14 HW: 310 SW: 290 CW: 260 Height: 5'4

I was sleeved 8/14, and I lost 14 during my pre-op and I've lost 17 since surgery. Keep up the great work everyone.

Thank you, I will pick some of those up.

Thank you both, your answers really helped. I did not even consider the whey issue, I bet that is it.

Seeking some advice..... I am nine days post-op and I am still learning the signals my new stomach is sending me. I've been healing really well and the past three days my energy level is better than normal. I've been getting my Protein in via shakes while I'm on full liquids and tried a new brand of Protein powder today. Since then I have been insanely nauseous (reminds me of nausea during the early stages of pregnancy). Has anyone else experienced this? Would this just be due to the brand change?

Hello from the other side! I'm sleeved without any problems. My stomach is pretty sore (feels like I've done a thousand crunches!) but over all I am doing well. I've been walking to help with the gas pain, which has done me a world of good. I'm counting down the seven hours until I can have some ice chips, then I will be a happy camper!

Heading to the hospital, good luck to my fellow 8/14 sleevers. Our day is finally here!

Thank you for the prayers, I am as excited as a kid on Christmas morning! Good luck to you too, it will be here before you know it!

Good luck to you too.

Well, I am finally in the home stretch and ready to be done with this liquid diet! Come on Wednesday!

Looking good, congrats on your success

Congrats!!

Today is day 4 for me, and I completely agree. I discovered that I could eat dill pickles yesterday and that has made things a little better. What shakes are you on?

If you are not on the liquid diet, you ARE very lucky! Please have something really tasty for me this week Can you believe we are only 11 days away?

Happy to see all my 8/14 sleeve sisters here! Where will you all be sleeved?

Congrats and best of luck

I've started my pre-op all liquid diet that I'll be in for two weeks....then I will be sleeved! How about you?

I tried to have some tonight, but couldn't stomach it

How is the chicken soup? I was thinking about ordering some to try

Thank goodness!!!! I was thinking I was the only one going through this. I am getting 400 at the most daily too. Are you drinking shakes?

Congrats! Happy to hear you are doing well.

I am so happy for you!
