  1. Hi all,

    Got sleeved dec 16. Someone was talking about left shoulder pain and I've had that too. Does anyone know why? I know they have me a lovinox shot there but I didn't know if that was why it was hurting. I only got in 30 g of Protein yesterday and today only 15 g so far And I'm having a hard time getting liquids in too bc I don't want to push myself too hard but my mom keeps yelling at me to keep drinking!! Have only been walking a little because I'm still very sore and tender. And I went on the scale and only lost like 2 lbs since surgery on Monday. How has everyone lost so much in such a sort amt of time? Anyone not lose a lot like me? I know it's only been 3 and a half days but it seems like people on here have lost 10 lbs in like 3 or 4 days!! Help!


  2. So I did it! Was so anxious but happy it's over ! No nausea bc I have a patch and let me just say dilaudid is heaven! Not much pain only soreness. Walked once at 530 ths am and just an hour ago. Barium swallow test went well but tasted gross!!!!!!

    Congrats to u!! Thank God ur well n pain is managed. Question plz, if its hard to drink afterwards, how did u manage the swallow test? Is it alot to drink, do u have to drink it in a certain amt of time? Just curious. Thx. :). Grats again!

    It actually wasn't hard for me to swallow. I just had to take small sips. Not a lot to drink at all. Thx for the support!! Good luck to u and all if u!!


  3. So I'm freaking out. I just got my preop bloodwork back and it turns out, I'm PREDIABETIC. I can't believe I let myself get to this point ....surgery on Monday thank goodness. Just needed to vent...

    Dont beat urself up or dwell over it, ur finally doing somthn about it so be proud of urself. This surgery is NOT EASY OR THE EASY WAY OUT, so know that ur fighting to b healthier. And know that once its done, the numbers will b awesome, praise God. Now, stop worrying and welcome ur new life!

    Thanks so much Deezjeanz!!
