I have Body Fortress whey isolate. Vanilla cream which gives me 30g per serving.

Hello.. I'm neoflasher on MFP

Excellent. I hope to have lost that much at 5 weeks. I was sleeved on 8/12 and am down 13.5 lbs since surgery date which was a week ago. I just started Protein shakes today. What I have noticed is if I drink Crystal light or anything besides plain Water I have no issues but sometimes not all the time with plain water I get like a minor pain. Kind of like a small gas pain. Now that I hear about drinking too fast I'm going to slow it down. Maybe that's whats happening.

I'm from Orange county NY. Had my sleeve on 8/12. I was on only clear liquids since surgery until today. Now I'm on protein shakes until further notice. My weigh in the morning of surgery was 292 and I weighed myself this morning and scale hit 278.5. So far so good and no regrets at all on this end. I have my first Dr visit appointment on Tuesday. Will keep you guys posted.

I'm feeling great. Just started Protein shakes this morning. Everything is going without a hitch. Also had my first bowl movement this morning as well. All seems according to schedule.

You will be fine. I was expecting the worst to be honest and I have only had minor gas pain. This morning I did 5 min on the eliptical which I decided to stop since I don't want to push it. I do strongly recommend to listen to your Doctor and follow instructions to a T. I was on a full liquid diet since midnight 8/10 and stopped all liquids at 8/11 midnight. I have also followed my phase 0 diet to a T. I think that is also a big reason to why I have had no issues thus far. Don't get me wrong on Sunday prior to surgery my family had some insane looking Pasta and I was sooo tempted to downing a plate or two of that thinking "last meal" but the reward in the long run is worth so much more. I just hope that each day continues as it has and I stay disciplined and on point. Temptations will not stop. We just must learn to overcome them. Good luck

I know its too soon but I jumped on the scale just to see and it gave me a result of 10.5 lbs less than my weight right before going in for surgery. That was just 4 days ago.

Just an update...Im 3 days post op and still no pain.

I was man sleeved on monday 8/12. I have been walking around the block. Wonder how long til I can get on eliptical.

Good job. I want to know how much you lost. I was sleeved 8/12

I just had my surgery this morning at 7:30am by Dr Weiss from Tristate Bariatrics. Everything has been great. Only thing was I needed a catheter to drain my bladder and removed it right away. I am only feeling a little soreness in my chest but have not had any issue sipping my water etc. I am truly surprised at how well I feel. At this very moment I am in the intensive care waiting lounge texting since I have walked around all over the place. Going to my room now. Good night and good luck.

I was taken into op room at 7:30am. Before I knew it I was in my room and it was 11am. It has been a lot better than I expected. I am walking around like normal. At a slower pace of course. Only issue I had was that they had to use a cathiter to drain me after surgery. After that I have been urinating fine. My surgeon is Dr Wayne Weiss. My surgery was at Good Sumaritan Hospital in Suffern, NY. Recommend them both.
