So Ive been kindve stubborn and gently bending over more often than i should and finally this morning it feels like my abdomen muscles have had enough. Im a little worried i pulled something and was wondering if anyone had advice to get through my daily tasks without a bunch of help im pretty much home alone. Also reaching up high is a problem for me because im extremely short..

Just made my own cauliflower soup!! it might be a little high in salt and little too much fat (only like a 1/2T of butter) but OMG i finally like something i tried to make for this diet.

I had one diagnosed a few months before my surgery. and they suck. But they have to fix it when doing surgery since your stomach is being herniated. Just bear it hopefully after surgery you will feel 100x better good luck and much love

So my specific doctor/nutritionist has told me to be on clear liquid diet (no protein powders) for a whole 7 days after my surgery. Im on day 5 and slowly the hunger is eating at me. My diet is pretty much a f*ck ton of sugar free crystal light, jello, and the occasional strained chicken and noodle soup. (and water) tonight its finally getting to me. Ive experienced mild dumping after the strained chicken and noodle soup, but honestly im willing to risk the dumping for at least a sip of my favorite Atkins protein drink. Any tips? (btw i cannot stomach broth it makes me wanna vomit)
-
are you mixing protein powder with your clear liquids??

The amount of time it takes me to take my normal pills is slowly killing me, Ive taken anti-depressants and allergy meds for 8 years and have been able to swallow like 6 pills at a time but now with my limited amount of liquid at a time i take lke 30min to take all of my medications *sigh* Little changes can be rather annoying.

See i just cant take anymore cold stuff, I've just avoided popsicles lol. Ive eaten room temp jello to avoid the cold. I think im going to try strained cream of mushroom (which is a recommendation in my nutrition book)

Period After Gastric Sleeve
HannahRB replied to GrmCruz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thats odd, i was ordered to stop taking my Birth Control 2 weeks before surgery when i started my liquid diet. But as we all know every surgeon/doctor/nutritionist is different -
I am formerly the Human Heater and im 5 days post op laying on the couch with shirt jacket and 3 blankets.. AND i live in goddamn Texas. I used to envy my friends who were always cold cause i was always sweating and now i cant get warm to save my life!

Im following my nutritionists orders, i start protein liquids on Sunday. Im not over exerting myself cause i know i dont have the fuel in my body. Im walking enough to get gas out and digest and thats about it.

I'm almost 5 days out, feeling fantastic on my no sugar juice and broth only. I still somehow have energy even with pretty much no protein intake. Wishing this bloating and inflammation would go down. But overall NO REGRETS

Period After Gastric Sleeve
HannahRB replied to GrmCruz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had something similar-ish happen. I just got my surgery done on Saturday the 15th. I have been on birth control for 5 years. and was only two weeks out from my last period and right after the surgery i started my period, so there definitely is a correlation somewhere in there. -
4 Days post-op, Finally home. I miss Tijuana and all the wonderful people, I cried buckets last night cause it felt like my whole happiness dream bubble got deflated. Incisions are looking great staying hydrated. Going to attempt to make homemade shellfish stock today for sipping
(I cannot stand chicken and beef broth) Husband is trying to be supportive but tends to help in the wrong ways. Im hoping for a more positive attitude soon enough.

I have surgery in 3 days. In short Im having surgery at Bariatricpal MX (Mexico) I didnt have any of the tests and classes anyone else had. Im on my 14 day liquid diet, Im super stressed and stopped smoking cigarettes 6 months ago. But in short i pretty much almost got a divorce Monday evening so Ive smoked like half a pack on Tuesday and now im freaking out. what if i fly all the way to San Diego, get to Tijuana and they blood test me and cant do my surgery because Im a stressed out idiot and smoked.
