Hey y’all!! So glad so many of you are doing so wonderful!! :) So what is everyone eating these days? What things are you enjoying and is there anything you still can’t eat? I still can’t eat most proteins (chicken, fish, eggs, beef, etc.) which has been....frustrating af lol Just got under my stall weight this morning THANK U JESUS!! I’d been stuck at the same weight for what felt like forever. SW: 242 DOS: 230 CW: 204

@duchessDeviance Yes!! Please let us know how the patches work for you! I’m sick of taking soooo many vitamins.

I’ve been taking this for calcium citrate, it’s the only one I’ve found that isn’t absolutely inedible lol :P

I can barely get two small bites down of anything. :( After that it’s so uncomfortable I can’t even take another bite without feeling like I’m about to puke. Each body is different so it’s hard to ask, “hey is this normal?!” Lol Sounds like y’all are all doing really well!! @jazzyj13 and I will just be over here not eating ? lol jk

@othella2 & @si*******on Forreal!! I’m a month post op and have been stuck at 26 pounds lost for 2 weeks. I’ve been having a really hard time getting any food down. beans, eggs, cottage cheese, chicken, I guess my sleeve doesn’t “like” any of it? Can’t really eat without feeling sick. Anyone else having a hard time getting “real food” down?

@Neely I was having the same issues last week (3 weeks post op) I have literally never been so miserable. I took dulcolax which worked so well it sent my system too far the other way? But at least it was moving, ya know? I’ve started taking the Metamucil pills (can’t stand the drinkable) every day and that’s keeping things regular :) Hope you’ve found some help!!

@julie.vsg same!! I was sleeved the 8th and I’m still trying to find the best solution for constipation/diarrhea ?? my body has yet to find an in between. Hope you’re feeling better!

Hi y’all! I was sleeved on March 8th. I live in Texas and had my surgery done in Mexico. Everything went according to plan - but they set this expectation that the recovery time was a couple days...maybe 10 days max! I had the worst pain, could barely walk, was a crying mess, and kept having panic attacks because two other women had their surgeries the same day I did and were up and walking, saying they weren’t in pain! My incision site pain has been awful, didn’t help that the doc only sent me across the border with four pain pills and can’t prescribe in the U.S. ??‍♀️ I’m about two weeks post-op and STILL am sore at my incision sites. It’s lessened, but is still pretty prevalent. Anyone else have this issue?

I was sleeved March 8th!! Pros: I’ve lost twenty pounds!! Cons: I’ve had EXTREME incision site pain...it has gone down a lot in the past two weeks, but it’s still painful. It didn’t help that my doc only sent me across the border with four pain pills and can’t prescribe in the U.S. ??‍♀️ If I do too much I’m absolutely knocked out and I can’t wear anything that isn’t loose around my incisions (pants, shorts, leggings, etc.) or I’m absolutely dying lol. I guess I’m wondering if anyone’s had similar experiences with the pain?
