Change your shower head to the kind that are removable, especially if you're not ok with the idea of a bidet. Super helpful and you'll love how clean your parts feel forever after. ☺

Sleeved May 10th
Original w 264
Surgery w 245
Current w 234 but I've been the same now for 3 days. Don't think I'm getting enough protein. And my surgeon is super strict. I'm on full liquid for 2 weeks, (1st week was clear only) no jello. At week 4 I can do soft foods. Not hungry but the head hunger struggle is real.

Unflavored Protein mixed with Soup (just not too hot, it changes the protein) or Isopure clear fruit Protein drinks. My favorite is the melon flavor. Sold at Vitamin shoppe for sure. I can't do the milk based ones post surgery.

I was also sleeved on the 10th. I did the 2 week pre op diet of 2 shakes and 1 lean meal a day and I'm thankful my surgeon does that because I haven't had any hunger at all. Just head hunger. I dream about food. But my stomach doesn't growl at all. I'm still sore and the gas sucks but this was absolutely the best decision for me.

I was sleeved 5/10 with hernia repair. The pain was way worse than I expected. I even needed morphine in the hospital. The gas pains are terrible. The surgeon told me that the incision should start to hurt Friday as that is when the local anthestsia wears off. I have been using the liquid hydrocodone/Tylenol and it helps immensely. Everyone is different but I know you can't use any NSAIDS.
