  1. I'm having such a hard time getting in my fluids Ive tried multiple things but after about 2 hours of sipping I feel sick and like a ton of bricks in my stomach. Can we have Gatorade?? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  2. Thank you!!! I was just wondering if I could have Gatorade Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  3. And I'm the exact opposite. Warm stuff bothered my stomach so I just keep on with Popsicles and ice water. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  4. I also had gallbladder removed and I'm still in a LOT of pain. I'm having a hard time getting my fluids where they need to be because all I want to do is sleep. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  5. June 16th was my sleeve! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  6. I'm over a week post op and still hiccup like crazy. It hurts so bad! And I had my first bowel movement 5 days after surgery. Once you start on Protein shakes it'll help. Plus I drink egg drop Soup which helped too. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  10. I am right there with you curlysue! I had mine on the 16th. Went to work Tuesday and ended up making it half a day before coming home and crying. Today I was in such pain I was dizzy. Plus I see people saying "I've lost 14 lbs since my surgery" and I'm over here going "I've lost 5 and all my energy". I just want to sleep!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  11. You, my friend, are a genius! I went and bought those cups today and I guess where I'm finally hungry/thirsty, I got my first full 8 oz in an hour! I also got the PB2 and premiere Protein someone else recommended. Thanks for the advice everyone. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  12. I'd love some broccoli lol. I also had my gallbladder removed so I'm wondering if that's why I'm still in pain. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  13. That is an AWESOME idea! Thank you for sharing Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  14. 14 lbs since the surgery on the 16th? Or since the pre op diet began? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  15. I have tried isopure coconut and it's too sweet for me so I'm doing a lot of Water right now. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  16. We are surgery sisters. Mine was the 16th as well but I'm not in as good of shape with pain management. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  17. Hey all. I had my sleeve done on 6/16/16. I also had my gallbladder removed at that time. I am in SO much pain still and my pain meds aren't helping. I tried to go back to work today but that didn't work out very well. Anyhow, I'm having a hard time with getting fluids in much less nutrients. I can stomach Water and sugar free Popsicles and on occasion egg drop Soup. But I'm lacking bad in Proteins and my Fluid definitely isn't at 64-80 oz. Any tips on other options to try drinking or how to regulate my intake? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
