    7 months post op

    Wow, I’m 7 months out, but no where close to what you have done, I started at 385 and down to 255. Sometimes a little lower, jumping back and forth and having a stressful eating.

    WLS Discount Cards & Restaurants Who Accept Them

    Our China buffet gives you 20% off but it’s still expensive for what I can eat. But they have weigh and take so what I do Is get a Togo container and put food in it that I can eat and foods my daughter likes she sits down and eats and I pay for my Togo and then sit down and eat my few bites with her and take the rest home. A lot cheaper that way.
  8. 37 pounds before pre op liquid diet. I had started low carb to change my eating prior to surgery. I lost another 15 on my liquid diet. Had my sleeve 11/07/17 and losing slowly.

    Emotional Rollercoaster

    Seems to be normal. I’m 15 days out and my emotions are all over the place.

    Freaking myself out

    I had my surgery 11/7 and haven’t lost much at all. It’s supper depressing. I gained then lost. I keep crying cause I had a very dangerous surgery to save my life and I lost more on my low carb diet then I have since surgery.
  11. Mine did for the first week, it was like pressure with a burning feeling. It got better.
  12. I’ve been doing good I’ve been getting at least 70-80g of protein a day one need 60g. I only need 64 ounces of liquids and I’m getting at least 100 ounces or more. Not forcing myself, not getting sick. Only once when I drank my protein drink to fast. Dr said it’s ok to take a hour and a half to drink 11 ounces of protein cause it’s just liquid. I do follow the do not drink 30 mins before and I do one hour after even though my dr only asks for 30 mins after. Getting myself prepared for puréed stage on 11/27/17. I’m waiting for them to approve me to go back on Metamucil or something. I’m starting to get some pain back into my colon and that’s scary when you have perforated in the past and survived sepsis 3 times because of it. My gastro dr wants me on it immediately as gastric dr says no. Ugh. If it gets to bad I will have to go against my gastric Drs wishes. I will not allow it to perforate again. I may not survive sepsis the 4th time and I have a child to care for.

    Super Nervous and Unsure??

    I felt the same way. I’m a single disable mom of one daughter. My ex is in prison and for along time so he’s not in the picture if something was to happen to me and I was really worried about it because I almost died 2 years ago from sepsis 3 times... but having my sleeve so far has been one of the best decisions of my life. I’m 11 days post op now.
  15. I was fine the first week and then this week I’ve been tired a lot. Like can’t funtion tired. I’m 10 days out still on liquids. I even fell over and slammed one of my incisions on the corner of a cabinet knocking it open. Dr said it was all normal. If your feel way to unnormal please call your surgeon.
