Im looking for dec sleevers im getting sleeved dec 17th would to hear from ya'll

I was sleeved on Dec. 19th. I must say that I have very little pain at the incision sites. My major problem was dry heaving due to the pain meds giving during and after surgery. The major pains that I have had are gas pains. I started taking gas x Thursday and the gas finally moved out of my back yesterday evening once I began drinking protein. I keep reminding myself to sip my water because when I swallow it down fast it hurts like heck.

I got sleeved on the 18 .. No pain, I refused morphine, I been walking around the mall twice already . It's amazing . The only complaint I have is the non stop burping and the uncomfortable feeling of feeling full when I'm still do thirsty.. What are u drinking/ eating?

I am drinking these whey shooter things I got from Walmart. They have 42g of Protein and no sugar. I am also drinking Water and crystal light.

Those whey shooters aren't the tight kind of protein for you to be drinking. If you read the back the ingredients say so. You need pure whey isolate protein, and those are a different kind. If I remember right it is collagen protein. Drinking that won't help you at all, because your body won't break it down. Sorry to be a downer, just didn't want you to be wasting time, money, and stpmach space on that junk.

Ugh sorry about all the typos...I am day 2 post op & on some heavy duty painkillers.

These are at Walmart and are protein isolates. They are only 3 oz and don't taste that bad

No. I absolutely hate jello. It makes me gag everytime I try. My Doc wants 3 weeks of Clear liquids (64oz daily) and 50g of protein. Once I started with the protein I gained a great amount of energy back. I have yet to take a pain pill.

As Jack 74 stated. The ones at Walmart are protein isolate. Thanks for being helpful though. My doctor already has me on these things because I had gas that would not move. He also has me drinking skim milk as well. I have lots of energy and no pain. Today I am going to try some flavored powdered Whey that I got from GNC.

Hey sleevers, just dropping in an update. Today is 12/24 and feeling good. During this shopping week I hv been doing lots of walking and realizing my legs dont hurt, my cycle is coming and I dont hv the usual 2wk in advance headache, carried my sleeping 18month old in the house and my chest was not falling out my body. Im just going to say it! THANK YOU LORD N THANK YOU GASTRIC SLEEVE! Im currently at a stand still with the losing,its moving like a lb a day but every pound down is a blessing to my heart. Protein, drinking is going good, and food im still learning but going well also. Everything I hv tried had agreed with me so that is definitely a plus. Today I made a cold cut sandwhich following the ozs thar I should have and was able to eat half before feeling full. I love it! ( 100 calorie thin sliced whole grain bread,hellmans light mayo, 1sliced cheese,1sliced turkey) :-)

When were you sleeved?

Today makes 4 weeks for me--mine was Dec 3. I'm doing pretty good. Still feeling tired in the afternoons but I've been doing a lot more than usual, shopping, baking, wrapping, cleaning. The only thing that didn't agree with me so far has been yogurt and an egg. I have an egg every morning but today, tummy wasn't happy. I'm on soft/pureed foods. Tuna was ok but I missed bread. I don't like tuna with just mayo on a spoon. Bleck.

I was sleeved on 12/4/12 eggs are ok but seems like I dont enjoy them anymore. I am able to get an egg down ok without a problem though. I have not had yogurt since surgery

I had my surgery on Dec. 18 in NYC. Would love to hear from others around the same time.

I had mine Dec.10....I'm having a really hard time getting protein down and all my liquids. I started purees yesterday....I had red snapper fish with liquid on it to keep it mushy....a half tap of potato salad.....I feel amazing in spite of the limited protein.
