I'm so lost
I was sleeved on the 14th. It helps to write done, what your eating. My nut had me just track my protein and my liquids. I usually have 2 Chobani Greek yogurts a day, a protein shake with 2 scoops and then like cream of wheat or soup for dinner. I'm on soft food/liquids for 5 weeks. I love whole foods butternut squash soup, 1 cup had 8 grams of protein. I hope this helps!

did you have any complications and what were they?
No complications. I felt great by the 3rd day. I was released the next day. Now that I'm healing my incisions are kind of itchy but that's it. I'm 10 days post-op. Compared to my c-section this was a breeze

Help - liquid stage week 2
I went to whole foods yesterday and got some of there traditional butternut squash soup. One cup has 8g of protein. It's really good. Yoplait makes a Greek blended yogurt which is good. The Tangerine has no piece it it. Also Chobanis key lime and orange vanilla has no pieces in them and they are good too.

OCTOBER bariatric beauties
Everybody is different. I felt awful on Saturday. I went to target and toys r us and when I came home, I crashed. I felt like I was dead. I think that walking is giving me more energy. I can't drink water at all! I have been drinking decafe tea with skim milk or powerade zero. Today I got some passion tea from Starbucks and loved that. I think everybody heals differently. I had a csection that was the worst and my attitude was that nothing could have been worse than that. Please let me know if I can give you any other ideas. You just have try different stuff and see what works for you. Are you taking vitamins?? I'm taking bariatric fusion 4 times a day.

I had my surgery October 14th. I'm a week post-op and feel great. I'm from Massachusetts and a single parent to a 6 year old little boy.- Let's hear it for october 21 st!
Good luck everybody! I'm a week post-op and feeling great. I hope everybody's goes as well.- I can't get my protein in...
Try other protein powders. There has to be something you like or get a flavorless.- One week post op
For some reason I can't drink water. I have resorted to deface tea and powerade zero. The water bother my stomach. I am also not good at drinking slow. I have to work on that.- One week post op
I was just sleeved last Monday the 14th and just had my first BM today. I took laxatives on Friday and it did nothing. I started drinking v8 with fiber. Last night I took a stole softener and fiber pill and this morning I went! Just have to figure out what works for you. We are really not eating anything and I have trouble drinking wAter so I have been trying other things that work! Decafe tea and power aide zero.- 5 days post op
I was sleeved on Monday. I feel fine when I'm at home. Doing small things cooking and cleaning. Today I went out shopping and I was wiped out after. I needed that reality check that I'm still healing and even though I feel really good, I only had surgery 5 days ago! Take it easy. ????- One week post op
I was sleeved on Monday too.- Getting Sleeved the 17th anyone else?
I got sleeved on Monday the 14th. I felt really good. I was discharged the next day. The only thing I'm wAiting on now is a BM. I am really shocked at how good I feel. Except for being tired pain is minimal and I only take meds at night. - One week post op
