  4. The Proti tomato Soup is also really good. I don't care for the Proti chicken Soup....to rich. I ordered off Amazon. Sent from my SM-J320F using the BariatricPal App
  5. I wish I had this problem. I did for the first two weeks. I even tossed out unsalvagable undergarments! Now, after week 2, I go 4-5 days without a BM! And then I need medical intervention. Relish the explosion. Sent from my SM-J320F using the BariatricPal App
  6. I could have written your post! Same exact thing is happening to me. Also I am end of week 4. Lost 20 pounds first two weeks, 2 pounds second week and fourth week....nothing. I am just glad I am not gaining. But it is frustrating. I chalk it up to my body hanging on to every little morsel of food possible. Sent from my SM-J320F using the BariatricPal App
  7. Yep. I'm 4 weeks out, low BMI and my hair is falling out. I also take Biotin supplements. Sent from my SM-J320F using the BariatricPal App

  10. I am about to start pureed foods, day 15 postop. I have done great so far meeting my Protein and Fluid requirements. Question....how in the world am I going to meet my protein requirements in the pureed stage.....and eat actual pureed foods? I'm trying to figure out how to replace my Protein Drink with a pureed food and still get my protein in my daily requirements. I can't eat eggs, cheese or yogurt. Allergic and no dairy for me. Any ideas? Thanks for your help! Sent from my SM-J320F using the BariatricPal App
  11. I get this feeling also. Mainly when I drink cold Water. Almost like my esophagus has gotten smaller! It passes quickly. I think its just our bodies still healing. Congrats my fellow sleever! I was sleeved July 15th. Sent from my SM-J320F using the BariatricPal App
  12. I was sleeved July 15th. First 4 days were hell. But now, I feel good. Walking around the mall and grocery stores. I have to stay on top of my Protein, or I get weak. I get 60-80 gr of protein each day. I can't wait to go to pureed foods! Lost 10 pounds! Shoot.....anyone should if they eat low cal and higb protein! I just have a tool to help me now. I miss eating. Really eating food. Went to dinner the other night and had Water. I actually got sad. Like a friend died. Good luck fellow sleevers! Let's all keep in touch!

  15. Day 2 and I cried. Wondered what the hell did I just do? The gas was awful. I was vomiting and in pain and couldn't urinate. But.....it's true....it gets BETTER! I started walking around about day 3 and day 4 I could keep liquids down. I was released on day 4. I am now day 7 and actually feel good. Not on any pain meds and walking and even getting out. It will get better. ???? Sent from my SM-J320F using the BariatricPal App
  16. The IV will keep you hydrated. I couldnt stomach any liquids via mouth until day 3. Then, I was released. Just focus on the walking on day 2 to get the gas out. Congrats on the surgery! Sent from my SM-J320F using the BariatricPal App
  17. I also wasn't required to have anyone. I really didn't want anyone either! I am 7 days postop and the first 2 days in the hospital were painful. When I'm in pain, I don't want anyone around. Sent from my SM-J320F using the BariatricPal App
  18. I have pain in my upper chest when I drink Water. I am 6 days out. I have to make sure and drink water standing up. I'm ok with broth and Jello. I think it's just our stomach has changed and so has everything else. Sent from my SM-J320F using the BariatricPal App
  19. Same with me! I refused to leave the hospital until I didn't have severe pain....about day 4. I am on day 6 now and feel the same as you. Only thing is horrible insomnia. Sent from my SM-J320F using the BariatricPal App

  24. I had a tummy tuck 8 years ago and now thinking of having the sleeve surgery. I know. ... I did this backwards. Has anyone done this? Any extra complications? Will the procedure of bloating my body during the surgery affect my tummy tuck? Thanks everyone. Sent from my SM-J320F using the BariatricPal App
