I tell you I'm getting pretty nervous but anxious. I was wondering how to take the Protein on the plane. Anyone have suggestions?

I was sleeved by Dr. Kelly and I brought Protein packets that I purchased from powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury. Ironically it turned out that I didn't need them. When you are getting sleeved by Dr. Kelly you can't have Protein until your tenth day PostOp. Find out from your doctor if you will need them.

Today is my 10th day so I am starting with the protein.

No Protein until day 10? That's strange. Not even Isopure? Does he just want you to focus on Water?

Clear Liquids. I think it designed to give the stomach time to heal.

I was sleeved by Dr Kelly and I started on Protein as soon as I got home. Do not worry about it the first few days! When I got home I would make the unjury chicken broth (21 gr pro) a couple of times a day instead of regular chicken broth. I really think it helped me avoid that weak,light headed feeling. I also mixed the unflavored into crystal light to sip on during the day. Both are still clear liquids.

Thanks for posting that DDFinn. I was wondering about that! I didn't want Mrsteacher to miss out on Protein if she could get it in...

Weird. I wasn't feeling light headed at all without the Protein. I am getting it in at least 3x a day now (morning, lunch, dinner). Looking forward to the mushy stage at day 20.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
