    Maybe its just me but adding ice to one of the shakes definitely makes it easier to handle! It feels like a treat almost. I make all 3 shakes for the day in morning and by time I get to third one its sludgy lol so i add splash of milk and ice and it is pretty tasty just felt like sharing .

    It gets easier. The first week is super hard. Your body is adjusting (and pissed) and it seems like everyone struggles with different stuff (shakes, Water, liquids...). Don't beat yourself up, take it easy. Do the best you can while you heal up. Before you know it - the shakes will go down smooth and you will be introducing new stuff. Try to focus on keeping hydrated and getting rest. The other stuff with come... GOOD LUCK and CONGRATS!

    I didn't take my vitamins for about 30 days. I tried, but got sick each time. I had to go to a group appointment of one-month out people. No one was taking their vitamins bc of pain or nausea. It's slightly better since I can take the capsule now.
    At the second day, I didn't think anything was easy! Maybe ice chips. I just concentrated on trying to get one ounce down at a time.
    Good luck! And I hope you don't float away!!

    Not sure if anyone is having trouble getting Vitamins down but BariMelts website has a bundle package which has everything you basically need for post Gastric Sleeve for $104 after rebate.....however Jet.Com has same bundle for 3 months for $48!!! Which is $16 a month for ur supplements instead of like $75 everywhere else its worth looking at.

    I admit I did have one of my favorite meals a few days before I started the liquids....to be honest I am so glad I did! I am one week postop at this point.

    mikey701 reacted to sleevedshereen in Weakness & shortness of breath   
    Totally normal. I was on liquids for the first three weeks. The first two weeks I felt like I couldn't effing breathe. I would have the air on in my car because I felt like I was suffocating without the air flow. It went away probably like a week or two ago. Weakness is normal...our bodies have nothing in them so any little thing I did took all my energy. Taking a shower took all my energy from me for the day...Walking sucked all my energy out. My doctor told me for the first month focus on liquids more than Protein so you don't become dehydrated.
