momof2littleones got a reaction from lornasaurusleeve in Post op day 6
Day 2 and 3 were brutal.
Day 4 improved.
Day 5 95% better
Day 6 =back to work and almost forgot I had surgery! Until I chugged 3 gulps of Water and felt it. Ugh.
Very happy it's getting better. Zero pain. I almost forgot I can't eat solid food and thought about grabbing pretzels. Then u remembered I'm only on full liquids. Puree starts tomorrow. I can't wait to taste sweet potatoes.
What have you eaten for puree stage? I'm craving a taco. Thinking of making chilli.

momof2littleones got a reaction from kamjmm25 in Surgery yesterday
Well I had my surgery yesterday. Pain was bad, but lots of diludid. I had surgery at 730am, in PACU before 11, in my room around 1pm. I was ealing by 5pm
Today I went home. Pain control was good in the hospital today, but the oral oxy does nothing for me at all. I supposed to drink 60oz today but I only made it through 15. Anything more than 1/2 Oz makes me nauseous. so it's been chicken broth and Water. Surgery made me gain 6 pounds, but mostly laprp water and IVF. The gas pain is intense. The fixed a hernia in my diaphragm and my shoulders and back are extremely painful when I lay down. Said it was from the lapro air they blow inside. 5 incisions. Only 1 hurts. And that pain is both inside and superficial. Here's to getting rid of my "fat clothes" and starting a new life.

momof2littleones got a reaction from MissMellyMell in Protein intake worries
Isopure is 50g x 2 scoops. Double up on any powder. I bought protein Soup mix from Amazon and I love it. Also okios Greek yogurt has 10g of protein. And you can add milk to make it drinkable and add protein

momof2littleones reacted to GotProlactinoma in Protein intake worries
Same here when I was in the first week. I would spend a couple hours on one Protein Drink and later a couple more on the next. Which only gave me like 40 something G Protein. I found Bone Broth (I made mine, some stores sell it) to be a huge help because it tasted good, had a little salt, and a cup has 9 g proten!
It took probably,6 days to get 60 g. But it will eventually help you get your strength back. You're doing fine. Keep it up.

momof2littleones reacted to MissMellyMell in Protein intake worries
HI there, there are some Protein Shakes out there with close to 30 grams of protein, if you could manage 3x day, you'd hit that goal! I know that there are also unflavored protein mixes available that you're able to add to Soups and anything else you'd be consuming. Makes it easier! Good luck 🙂

momof2littleones got a reaction from NewCL in Day 4 post op
Wow! What a difference! Day 1 2 and 3 were painful and horrible. Finally today I'm feeling 1000x better!! I was able to eat 6 Oz Protein broth and 2 TBS Greek yogurt + a bit of Water. I'm down 20 pounds since my pre-op liquid diet. Going back to work Monday and feel like I can handle it. Whew. I was miserable for a few days.
Good luck all!

momof2littleones reacted to SleevesRbetterThanPantz in Just been Sleeved
Today I weighed in 8 days post op 30 lbs lighter. I'm down 30 lbs it was empowering. I finally was cleared to walk on tredmill and ride bike at gym so I went to my gym and did a 30 minute bike ride and then had to run to the mall to buy a summer dress for my best friends engagement party in 2 weeks and I was one full size down. This is literally only ONE week post op.
I'm onto puréed foods as well and for dinner tonight I got to purée a bean chili with fat free sour cream and a little fat free Mexican cheese. My ninja made it so smooth and it was beyond delicious. My biggest incision where they removed the stomach is the only one that is sore but my doctor said that's normal.
I'm loving life!!!!! Love sharing our journeys Xo

Hi Gang,
5 days post-op. Having a difficult time getting down more than 200 calories a day and maybe 10 grams of Protein. I am drinking a little Decaf. Can you guys recommend a Protein Powder to add to my coffee?

momof2littleones reacted to JayWi in Bad taste in mouth
I am 21 days post surgery. I also had a hiatal hernia repair. I cannot drink enough. Everything tastes bad. I keep dry heaving. I don't eat either, but I think that will pick up if I can just hydrate.

momof2littleones got a reaction from southernbellair79 in 4 days post op.
I'm day 3 post op. It's hard. I'm glad I'm not the only one unable to drink. I get in only about 5- 10 oz/per day. And it's difficult to do. Good luck!

momof2littleones got a reaction from southernbellair79 in Just been Sleeved
Still very painful. I'm day 2 post op. Got home yesterday. Can hardly drink only 15 MLS at a time. Full liquids start today, so I'll see how the yogurt and Protein Shake go. I feel like puking.
