    Good luck!!!! Your doing good by reading blog. Helpful to prepare. My advice, follow what the nutritionist says. I see them every stage. So far 4 times since surgery June 1. I see them July 10 for next stage. I don’t go behind the stage. If they say ok in 8 weeks, I only worry about what I can eat till I see them. I ask enough questions to get me through till the next time. So right now I’m good on yougurt, scambled eggs, hamaburger, meat ball dont think about further then you can go. So baby steps. My office offers groups, but I like the blog cause it’s instant, they also offer free nutrition for a year. Anytime. I like that

    Lala70 how did you get a sleeve at your starting weight ??
  14. Is anyone terrified to put something in their mouth at the fear it will hurt you?? well that’s me. I’m scared to death to move onto another food. im 4 weeks today and been eating yogurt, that’s it. i did however eat a scrambled egg as I’m on stage 4, so far so good. Let me tell you this, I will never be fat again, I will always remember this torture

    Scared abd Undecided

    You should find a Baiatric doc and consult. My doctor won’t see you till you attend his seminar. It was like 2 hours and he had patients there to answer questions. As for fear. I won’t lie, I’m 4 weeks sleeve, and it’s hard. I’m terrified to eat something new out of fear to hurt myself. I know it will get better. If you are scared, I encourage you to do research, find the doc, go to a support group and ask questions, watch my 600 pound life on TLC. Go with your gut, no pun intended. one day it will click like me. Mine, at least was a 6 month process. Weigh ins, tests, etc. it’s not like you say ok, and have surgery. I would make sure it’s a program like mine. The 6 months was a good psych up to help.
  17. Sorry honey, I feel bad for you. You had a sleeve?? mine was 6.1.18 i attest to feeling ok by keeping active. i would find something to do around the house that didn’t require exertion . Find something to do and move constantly throughout the day.
  18. It’s th hormone in stomach that’s gone, that’s th issue.

    Sleeved yesterday!

    Good luck. Walk, walk, walk it will help more thn you know the sipping will improve. I couldn’t imagine drinking after surgery, it took a couple days. It’s basically a full time job to drink post op for a bit.

    Need a little support

    Good luck. I’m 4 weeks today. It does get easy. WALK, very important i was home and would get up every hour and walk around my place for a few minutes. It helps a lot. I didn’t take pain meds when I got home for fear is naseau from it. I was fine, no pain. Walk, it will help, I promise i walked so much in hospital, the day I left, I must have walked for over 20 minutes around the ward. Just follow the nutritionist to a tee good luck 💕💕💕💕

    I hate protein shakes

    I hear u. Ewwwwwwwwww.
  22. I would be cautious. i believe everyone does a pr op, depending how much you wiegh part of it is to reduce liver, the other part is to mentally prepare you to drinking food post op. how much do you weigh? be careful

    Threw up for the first time today

    I am 4 weeks today. i had some issues with throwing up the past few days. went to ER, doc said that since I went to stage 3, oatmeal, my stomach may have just not been ready. even if you had it before, your stomach may have not been ready for it.
