One week - Happy but battling myself mentally
Mrs King posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi everyone!! Hope everyone's journey is going REALLY well whether you're waiting for surgery or have already been sleeved. Today marks 7 days since I started the 2 day pre op liquid diet (surgery on June 6th). I stepped on the scale this morning and found that I have lost 20lbs in the last week. While I had that moment of "OMG! That's awesome!! I'm happy!". Then I fall back into the "I'm still a major fattie though" and start doubting if the scale is "teasing me". I know this is part of the process...there is the difficulty of leaving the "big girl" vision behind but when does it happen?? And how do you really help yourself to break that mental block? -
So far I've been doing pretty good since surgery. I'm just having a hard time with the 70-80 grams of protein. I like the cytosport drinks - I used to like the Isopure but post surgery they tasted icky. How are you all getting the 70-80 grams of protein in each day without feeling like the protein drinks are overly sweet?
-
Thank you for all the guidance and tips. I too am 4 days post op and have already started the muscle milk. But were you all able to get in 70-80 grams a day on top of your liquids and vitamin doses?

June 2014 Sleevers Check In!
Mrs King replied to SnohoGal98296's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was the exact same way. Just know once you do the scope (and it's VERY easy) the surgery feels like a breeze -

Day two and everything is going really well still. I've been walking like crazy and been smiling all the way. I'm so glad it all went so smoothly and I'm not having the tough side effects. Looking forward to going home today!! I love being a Sassy Sleever!! -
I feel the exact same way!! Even the nurses and other staff keep asking me, "Are you sure you had surgery because you're looking great!"
-
It's 3:30am and the girl in the room next to mine and I just did some walking with our nurse. I still feel INCREDIBLE!! I'm just so happy it's been so easy.

I'm still feeling fantastic!! When I first joined this site it was so helpful to read everyone's stories and experiences. It really prepared me for what to expect just in case. I'm just so blessed that it went so well and recovery has been smooth. Thank you for all of the support!! OH and P.S. I've completed 16 laps around my medical ward "block" because I feel so good!! -
I've been out of surgery for about 3 hours and I'm feeling AWESOME!! So much easier than I thought. I hope other future sleevers had a similar experience to me.

Still feeling awesome. No pain right now and I've done a total of 4 laps around my ward. After reading some of the stories of others I prayed for an easy surgery and recovery. I think I had the best luck ever!! -
