officially sleeved on August 31st.



Recommended Posts

I was official sleeved on August 31st. at 4:30 in the afternoon. The doctor ended up doing a biopsy of my liver. I ended up staying in the hospital for two days. Due to me having trouble swallowing the 64 ounces of liquid and70 ounces of Protein. Well I finally got it down, but I'mm sick of the Protein drinks they are to sweet for me. Any suggestions. I need to do this for two weeks.

I already lost 18 pounds total 9 pounds before surgery and 9 pounds after. Can someone show me how to put a tracker on.

Thanks,

C

I had my surgery on the 31st also! I'm down 15 pounds today, post surgery. I just can't seem to force more food in. Nothing tastes good...the gas....the nausea...the gas...did i mention the gas?

Congratulations on your surgery. The first day after surgery I could get in only 4 ounces of Fluid the whole day. I'm on a liquid diet for two weeks. 64 ounces of fluids and 70 gram of Protein.

Whats your diet like? Did you let your doctor know that your having trouble eating? I can't wait for the soft foods portion of this process, yet at the same time I'm afraid. Are you still experiencing pain? I do every 8 hours, if I don't take my pain medication, I feel like I can't get through it. Hopefully this will pass as well.

Take care of yourself and keep in touch.

Congratulations on getting your sleeve. They discovered three tumors on my liver when they did my surgery and removed them as well. I consider that a blessing in disguise.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
