You’re supposed to be able to eat 4 oz of solid food at a time (2 oz Protein and 2 oz fruit/vegetables). Have you tried replacing the batteries in your scale?
They are replaced lol...
-
So does anyone else have issues with their scale? I get on and it says one thing and then I get in again and it’s up like 4 pounds and then I do it again and it different again and so on? What’s the real weight? Ugh! Also I can totally eat like 5 ounces now and I’m 5 weeks in. I feel like I can eat a good amount!! ScAred!

So.... Starting 4 weeks out post op... and I got a uti [emoji849] first one ever... I think it’s from the cathiders I had at the hospital... (kidneys wouldn’t wake up from anesthesia) out in macrodantin yesterday and it makes me feel aweful for the first couple hours. Like weak and flushed dizzy... and now just now my back is hurting... could this be from the antibiotics?

I’m almost 3 weeks and stay nauseous. I have a very hard time keep stuff down. Usually I can keep down 4oz Protein Shake, 2 oz Soup, then 2oz Soup and that’s it for an entire day. Usually I might be able to get about 24oz if Water a day and that’s pushing it. Oh and I also tAke At least 1 zofran a day, usually 2.idk what’s going on with me, but I hope it gets better on. It’s pretty miserable.
I have realized my situation. Was still dehydrated even tho taking in 48-60 oz of Fluid because I wasn’t eating much and then I am lacking serious minerals in my body
-
I have a question.... 3 1/2 weeks out and today I started feeling lightheaded and felt like a icy hot cool feeling in my arms brurry vision a little and I’m drinking 70 ounces a Water a day... could this be dehydration still? Or something else? I’m nervous. What else could this be? How could I still be dehydrated if I drink this amount?

I’ve tried eating the Beans with a touch of guacamole, and I got diarrhea both times.
Great!!! Did you feel pain in stomach too? I just don’t want to cause a leak
-
I don't know what it is but my stomach did not like the Beans at 3 weeks either. I have tried again and they were ok but I didn't have much. Maybe for me it's that I didn't really like Beans even before surgery. I am one month post op.

I am having issues with after my liqued gets to my stomach I feel a full ache in my stomach... if I can’t have liqueds then what am I gonna do?? Help?
-
Thank you all for your responses. Good luck to you all on this journey!! And Good luck on Monday!!!
I had mine removed the same time as my sleeve. I asked my doc why some do it separate. He said the doctors get more money that way. I’m sure that is it the reasons for yours and I can imagine it helps to heal in between but I’m glad I had to go in once since my recovery from Anastesia was aweful
-
Wow thats amazing, you're doing great!
So honestly I think i am the one and only here... please tell me if anyone had something similar. I lost 17 pounds PRE op 10 days... I had major Water swelling in limbs after surgery so I think that’s why when I got home from surgery I literally had gained 20 pounds!! No joke! I was mortified!!! I am now 10 days out post op and i am finally down the weight I was when I went into surgery.... hello are you kidding me??? Frustrating!!!! Anyone!!?? Anyone??!! Lol
-
Im on day 7, too, and I’ve definitely felt hungry and had my stomach growling. I started puréed food today. It’s not going down well - feels like a punch in the stomach! [emoji53]
Can’t wait til purée!
-
I’m on day 7 and felt hunger pains today for the first time. My doctor said to drink a Protein Shake and that’ll curb it till I’m on my next phase.
I just have always heard you don’t really feel hunger in the first year ....
-

Hey guys. I’ve recently gotten back to daily life since my husband had to go back to work and my family just doesn’t work with me resting. I was sleeved on Dec 26. Yesterday I cleaned house, today I ran errands and did a huge grocery shopping. I had a store person load into my car, and my husband unload at home, but I’m SORE!!! I feel like I did a thousand crunches. Anyone else feel muscle soreness? Can I hurt my sleeve by being too active?

Gained 20 pounds of weight since surgery. Almost a week out post and still that weight!! Barely can get in a cup of Water / Protein and very sluggish I’m starting to feel hunger pains and have to be on clear liqueds til the 10th not sure if my body can make it. Keep getting pain on right side that radiates to my back and side help!!!!
-
So I lost like 18 pounds Pre op and 3 day after surgery I weighed again and gained 20! A lot of Water weight ! I had edema too. Almost a week out now and still up 20?!?! Why????? Help please!!!
-
I am experiencing a dull ache that comes about three seconds after my Water gets to my stomach and it’s on my right side and it just swipes across my right belly and lasts for a few seconds too... it’s not the stitches that hurt when this happens it’s down deep...
-
I was told no because it puts too much air in your stomach, same as straws.
Sleeve date 12/4/17
