I'm 8 weeks post op. I seem to have heck getting my first goal of 300. On monday I was 304. Today, weds, I'm 306. It's like my body is doing the same ol song and dance it used to. Not very promising seeing so many at the same timeline as me dropping like crazy. Anyone else have this problem? What do yall do to get going again? 5' 11" OP 9/16/19 HW 365 PO 343 CW 304

Have you thought of making a podcast? Or do you have one? Pre Op 5' 11" #360 >50 BMI

Much better. It just took a little effort. Never did I think I'd describe a fart as a great feeling. Pre Op 5' 11" #360 >50 BMI

So now my new problem. I need to pass gas. My stomach is rumbling and earlier I was able to squeeze out a small one. But it hurts to push. Any suggestions? Belching is fine. This is all lower gut. Pre Op 5' 11" #360 >50 BMI

What is the name of your channel? Pre Op 5' 11" #360 >50 BMI

Yes. Surgery went smooth. I am extremely sore. But I'm taking in the amount of liquid they want. I'm using 1 ounce cups to measure and trying to take in 1 every 15 to 20 minutes I'm awake. I'm also getting up and taking short strolls around my house. I'm a busy body and this being layed up stinks. But I'm excited for when I can really start doing some walking! Just not gonna push myself to hard at first and risk the healing process. Pre Op 5' 11" #360 >50 BMI

I have been walking as much as I can stand to. Really depends on the pain. And every time I do, I belch. But just little burps here and there. Pre Op 5' 11" #360 >50 BMI

I went in at 730 yesterday morning for my sleeve. I'm only getting about 1 hour sleep at a time. Very, very sore. And I'm not belching much when I walk. Not passing gas at all. Nurse says little belching is normal. I just remember my wife letting some loud ones out after hers. Anyone else experience this? Pre Op 5' 11" #360 >50 BMI

Out and doing ok! Very very sore. But moving around and belching help alot. Pre Op 5' 11" #360 >50 BMI

Thanks yall. I actually found something amongst all the information I was given and I am allowed protein shakes! Thank goodness. Pre Op 5' 11" #360 >50 BMI

Tomorrow I go in for the sleeve! I am excited and nervous of course. But I goofed up and it is sunday. I cannot remember if I can have protein shakes or not today. I know no solids for sure. But just cant remember I'd protein is allowed. Any insight? Pre Op 5' 11" #360 >50 BMI

Tomorrow I begin my 2 week pre op diet. Shake for breakfast, lunch, and a protein and non starchy vegetable dinner. In between its water, broth, or sugar free jello. Surgery on 9-16. So ready for this. Pre Op 5' 11" #360 >50 BMI

I begin my 2 week diet next Monday in the 2nd. He said shake at breakfast, shake at lunch, and a low carb dinner of lean protein and non starchy veggies. This is so going to suck but I know will be worth it. Anyone else have a job that's labor intensive and did this. How did you get through it? What kind of shakes did yall find to work best?

Yes sir. I have a friend at work whom had the surgery. He does not lift at all. But he did say moving around everyday and taking walks as soon as he could helped him tremendously in the beginning. With both weight loss and recovery. I honestly only do cardio when training; yolk carry, farmers walks, truck pulls, and of course high rep lifts. I'm already making myself do walks on off days just to get into that groove. With that said I will probably be picking your brain, as well as others this topic. I begin my 2 week diet next Monday. And have surgery on the 16th. My wife asked what I want to eat for a last big meal. I actually told her nothing. I dont want to gorge on something then start thinking about missing it and psych myself out. I'm just ready for this journey. Again thank you for the advise and the perk up 8 needed for my fears as far as muscle and lifting are concerned. Pre Op 5' 11" #360 >50 BMI

Yeah he told me 6-8 weeks before I could think of lifting. But start walking asap. Yuck. I hate cardio. Then again, might be why I am where I'm at? Pre Op 5' 11" #360 >50 BMI
