January 2013 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

So has anyone over done it yet? I think I did yesturdat and I didn't even do much. Resson I ask is because I was in pain ALL NIGHT. A sharp pulling pain, whereas the other night I was able to lay in certain positions with no pain. How long should it hurt before I start to worry

Hey, I was sleeved 4 days ago and I drove 3 days later. I haven't taken any pain medication since the 1st day so I knew I wasn't on narcotics. It hurted turning and some pressing on the brake. But I survived it ..lol

Today I started full liquids...so I attempted to drink my Protein Shake by total lean shake....I took about 4 sips and about 1hour later, I had those lactose intolerant bouts....feeling like I was having contractions...omg.... Diarrhea 3times...omg...the label read its lactose free, my Nutritionist said it should be safe since I am highly lactose intolerant. Omg....I'm afraid to sip it again...so I went back to my G2 and mixed my Protein liquid in it.

I've been having to sleep on my side, kind of in fetal position with a pillow on my stomach. Not only does it help with the gas it seems to keep the pain away.

January Sleevers. I went back to work full time on Monday. Both Monday and Tuesday I worked all day with no issues. Tuesday evening I tried to eat some of my mothers potato Soup. She even puréed it for me!

It was so good I ate it too fast and I filled up quickly. I didn't get really sick but just didn't feel well. I went to lay down around 6:45pm. I was going to lay down long enough to let my stomach ache pass. I fell asleep and never woke until 7:30 this morning! I am sure my body needed the sleep as that is an important part of recovery.

My issue with this is that when I woke this morning I was already behind the 8 ball with my Water and Protein. It set me back all day long! Matter of fact, this is the worst day I have had since surgery. I'm just nauseous and feeling a little week. I did manage to get 70 ounces of Water in today because I am afraid of being dehydrated.

I also just had a small portion of my moms potato soup tonight with some Protein powder mixed in. I couldn't get much Protein in today because of being so nauseous.

Help? Did I do the right thing by at least getting my water in? I sure hope I feel better tomorrow.

      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! 😞
