  6. This could be due to one of the two reasons, your consuming too many unsuspecting calories (...carbs) or your under consuming casing your system to enter starvation mode which results in great deal of muscle loss... Kindly advise what your daily diet like which will help people to give you more targeted advice [emoji5]️ Sent from my ONEPLUS A3010 using BariatricPal mobile app

  14. Hi guys, I thought I share my story... I had my sleeve procedure on the 6th June 2017 (80% of the stomach was removed, with no complications) when I waked up I was in so much pain I literally had tears pouring out of my eyes while in the recovery unit, it was so bad that I also was shaking... however after getting some pain relief and forcing myself to walk within 30 min of leaving the recovery unit I could clearly see the pain is was due to the gases and my inability to move around. With some help of my lovely wife, I walked around the hospital for 45 min and it was the best thing I ever did. I went from 10/10 pain to 2-4/10, I continued that routine for the day and was discharged one day post OP. On day 2 post OP, I due to the liquid intake and due to the medication intake end up throwing back which was a lesson learned and a scary one too.. As of now I am on day 3 post OP and have had greatly reduced pain apart from the slight pressure and uncomfortableness due to the wound holes around my stomach, which is expected to due the size and trauma. I have been able to go for little walks and do just about any activity at home where there is no need to bend over while I am on leave from work to recover. I still have issues sitting down in on a seat or when I am trying to lay down or get up which is ok I guess as this puts pressure on the wound holes. I just wanted to say that the experience can greatly vary from person to person On the food/liquid intake side of things, I am now day 3 post OP and can tolerate, jelly, juices (100%), ice creams (ice blocks) etc The only thing at the moment which I have and is annoyance is the drastic reduction of liquid I can take, at about 45ml per 30 min otherwise I start with the hiccups and then the dreadful Throw up Also, I also make sure that any liquid taken must be taken while I am in an upright position followed by a little walk to reduce any throwback.. Below you will see my picture at day 3 post OP, and weight at about 120kg.
  15. Congratulations, I had my sleeve procedure on the 6th June [emoji120] just stay strong and look after your self
