Suesloosinit

Hi there, I’m in Mobile AL. I was sleeved on 5/10 and I’m slowly getting used to this new way of life. 5 weeks out and I’m 50lbs down. It’s been a wild ride so far!

I had my first dr appointment last week and met with my NUT. I told her about the multivitamin being horrible, she said to try either Celebrate or flinstones complete (orange box). I found flinstones in my local grocery store and they are small and don’t taste of much...I’m staying with them!

Amy’s soups are nice, I’m near end of my liquid phase and still can’t keep my 4oz warm past 10 mins. I don’t have a mug warmer so I’m eating cold food and that turns me off what I’m eating. Guess I will be eating cold food for a while

I’m 53, had my sleeve done on 10/5. Mine hurts if I swallow to much at one time...tiny sips only and water level seems to not go down. Keep going, your pouch will get used to it and stop hurting!

I have steri strips, the band aids came off tonight as they were irritating my skin but left the big incision one on till after shower in morning. My strips are itchy tho and have to wait till they fall off!! I think you are just healing.

I’m on day 2 of 10, and protein shakes are vile...I never drank milk shakes. I’m only feeling hangry when I get bored. I think your on same day or near like me, I would put what you did behind you and just look forward and keep up with the liquids...I’m sure you will do just fine ?

Funny you mentioned diet soda, I just read in my drs booklet that I can have diet soft drinks...isn’t that soda? Or am I reading that wrong?

Did your Dr tell you no coffee? Ours said to change to decaf, and I don’t think I could go weeks with out it. Maybe you could get coffee protein shakes to replace it?

I’m going in on the 5th! Good luck with liquids, keep us updated you will do fine ?

Sure thing, I need support too, think they do PM for contact info. Off to pre op tomorrow. I’m such a wuss with the blood thing!

Sleeve on 5th October, can’t wait but anxious already lol.

Ylime, I hear you, mine has been moved so many times, now I’m in to October because of my dearest hubby and his job ????
