UNbLIVable

How many a day are you taking? On the back it says 1 for adult. I've been taking 2

I'm on day 9 post op and I've been taking 2 Flinstones with added Iron for a multivitamin. I was taking centrum chewables but stopped post op after I got home because I'm currently having to take; Augmentin, Hydrocodone, sublingual B complex, sublingual D, Protonix, plus my multivitamin Every Day! The centrum chewable I was taking did not have added iron and I had to chew 4 gumball size chewables a day. I started takin the Flinstones because they have the added iron and I only need to take 2 a day and they are small. Someone told me it's BAD!!!! What should I take for a multi?

I can have scrambled egg, cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, string cheese, purée tuna, purée chicken, shredded cheese on egg, fish, purée turkey. No apple sauce can have jello and pudding too. Was supposed to be eating all these things this past week. NUT was mad at me today for only so far being able to eat a half an egg a day. NUT wants me to eat these foods 3x per day plus 2 protein drinks!!!!!!

I'm still having trouble getting 64oz fluid down in a day, 80g protein and 3 solid meals. Not really eating solid meals 3x per day. Anyone else feel my struggle? (I was sleeved last Monday) the thought of puréed chicken or tuna fish makes me nauseous. I posted a similar thread yesterday but I would love some tips, tricks and recipes for this stage!

I'm on day 8. My surgery was last Monday 12/9 and I'm not feeling 100% but I'm glad I'm at 60%. I'm on antibiotics too so I've been sick because if them. Every day gets better and easier ! You're doing better than me because when I was day 3 like you I was miserable and crying. Everyday gets better and better! You'll face new challenges but you'll get past them!

I got my sleeve last Monday. So today is day 7

Bean soups and chillis sound good! Hmmmmmmm. Any recipe ideas!

I'm day 7 post op and my dr told me to eat 3 food meals a day on top of my protein drinks. They said eggs, cottage cheese, lunch meat (purée), chicken (purée) or tuna fish (purée), more seafoods (purée). The other things seem gross so the past 3 days I've been home from the hospital I've only been eating eggs and cottage cheese, but it has been making me sick. Was thinking of tuna with a drop of mayo. Any suggestions anyone!?!?

Thank you for all the advice!!!!

Ya I'm just worried about getting dehydrated. The hospital is the last place I want to go back to and I've been getting a low grade fever and I was told that is from dehydration. I've had about 18 oz so far today which is hard when you're getting naps in. Zzzzzzzz

Thanks for the advice ladies! The plain water is killing me. Now I just have to get my Dear husband back to the store!

My stomach keeps cramping I'm taking little sips but taking too many at a time. I'm only drinking water and decaf blueberry tea. I can have apple juice and G2!?!? What about the high sugar content in them? (G2 & apple juice)

South Florida in Wellington, Lake Worth, Boynton Beach area? I'm 5 days post op! Would love to find someone who knows my struggles. These normal stomach people don't get it!!!!

I'm day 5 out and in having trouble getting all my fluids in. Any advice? 64oz seems next to impossible!!!!! My stomach keeps cramping because I'm drinking small sips but too much at one time!

Thank you so much for the encouraging words

I'm still in the hospital from Monday. All my surgery mates went home yesterday. I'm struggling trying to pass gas and forget about pooping. I've been walking the halls like a mad women and drinking warm. Nothing seems to work. Any tips or tricks out there? Last night I got a fever of 100.2 they have me swallow Tylenol. That was awful because the pills got stuck. I got a sinus infection too so they started me on antibiotics by mouth yesterday. It's been not so great so far. I'm blessed that things haven't been worse. I really want to pass this gas!
