Post Op September Sleevers, Roll Call



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on September 25 and have had little to no problems, except for being tired and trying to figure out if I'm actually hungry or if its my brain! The hardest part is not drinking while eating and getting enough water! I'm just wanting to move on from puréed diet to normal food. I am happy to say I've lost 24 lbs so far and it has helped my knees and sleep app enough that I am able to sleep in my bed again without waking hubby with my snoring! All of you keep up the good work ! For once. There is a light at the end of my dieting tunnel!

its amazing how fast this surgery cures sleep apnea. im so happy that machine is out of my life!!!

Hi guys I wanted to give an update. First off to those having difficulties I hope things get better for you soon. I have been one of the fortunate ones who have had no complications but I did wanna ask a few questions. Like most I miss my diet Sundrop and SWEET TEA!! I'm trying different artificial sweeteners but they seem to have a strange after taste. Is this just something you get used to? I'm getting tired of Water and crystal light. I haven't tried the Mio yet but I'm going to. I've never been a green tea person but I haven't tried it since surgery. Ok surg was 9-12-12 surg weight was 297 and today it's 275. My highest back in Feb was 340! I'm ok with the weight loss as I hear the slower the better chance your skin has to go back lol not sure how true this is. I am able to eat anything I want in moderation and yes I have had a few things that I shouldn't have. I drink no Protein in Fluid as I get it all in through food. Goodluck to everyone as we continue this journey. I am also on my fitness pal and my username is whitsmom08, I love that I am able to track everything.

Mine took over 2 hrs. I had an enlarged spleen that we didn't know about. So they had to work around that.

Oh I meant how long ago but funny u say that. Mine took 5 hours because my liver was so large :-(

No but came very close. It was torture on my back. Laying on that hard surface that long with a bad back. It was awful when I woke up.

I use Truvia, which is not too bad. I also really like the lemon tea for Kurig, though it is not extremely sweet, it has a nice flavor.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
