Post Op September Sleevers, Roll Call



Recommended Posts

Why is it that the bad food goes down so easy? I just ate an ice cream sandwich with no problem. I've been so hungry the last few days' date=' I guess it has to do with me being sick.

I washed my hair this morning and it was coming out by the handful ?de1fI went and bought that fall fight Shampoo, I hope it helps!

NG and Ready, thank you for the support! I'm with you ready, I wish there was a Protein pill. I just started taking the B12 but haven't bought the b1 yet. I take the Centrum chewable Multivitamin, it's $10 at target and my neighbor gave me some $3 off coupons :-) Its hard to learn to take care of myself, I'm use to taking care of everyone else and putting myself last which is how I got as big as I am. I'm going to try to input all my food in MFP so if anyone wants to add me, it's the same name as above.

Art- just curious how many calories are you eating. I notice when I was only eating around 600 that I wasn't losing. I took my calorie intake up too 900 and started losing.

I have the same problem and just increased my calories too. Going to try to get 800 in a day and see what happens. Also need to be better about getting in all my Water. I usually make 50 but not always the min of 64. I will going forward to see if that makes a difference. Stay positive!

Question for you all:

When you talk about getting your Water in, are you all counting ALL Fluid or just water?

And, um, totally not even counting calories....perhaps I should. I just eat when I'm hungry...well, actually I drink first and then I eat.

@ Sept sleeve sisters....grats to those who are loosing as fast as they want to and for making such a positive change in their futures.

@Momof thing.....my program only lets you count fluids with less than 5cal/8oz as part of your 64oz intake. It has been hard for me to get it in every day.

I count water, sugar free Popsicles & I have sweet tea & then add water so not so much sugar - I would love to have juice but seem like all them have so much sugar, my nurse said add water to those to but they don't taste as good

Kaiser sent mine in Sept 6th the day of surgery. They admitted today that they started processing it on the 1st but haven't completed it yet! WHAT THE HECK? So ridiculous!!! She laughed when I told her today I am already back at work! They feel bad too. At least some of them do. Getting someone in the phone is hard enough!

How if I may ask is everyone filing for disability with the state? I also have state insurance and had my surgery on 9/28/12. Am I allowed to file for it or is it a special circumstance? I'm just curious. Sorry if I am being nosy!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
