Hey!! I'm Egyptian but born and raised in NYC! I went to Cairo to get sleeved since I didn't really meet the criteria to be covered by my insurance. I was sleeved 12/22/12. I weight 225. Three weeks later I am 203.

Welcome! What doctor in Egypt did your surgery? What hospital did you use?

Hello all.. I'm Syrian :)

Sleeved on Oct. 22

Was 222.5 lbs (101 kg.) now after 12 weeks , I'm 179 lbs (81.2 kg.)

Not satisfied with how much I lost, I know people did it later and lost more..

The problem is that my Dr gave me no diet program for more than 4 weeks.. now I eat whatever I want..

Welcome! Are you currently living in Syria? Where were you sleeved?

I was sleeved on the same day. I've lost 26/27 kilos.....but I started out at 143. I should be losing more but this past two weeks I'm not drinking Water and I haven't exercised. I'm in some kind of funk.

My Doc didn't give a food plan either. That's the middle east for you lol

I stated following this diet program today

قﺒﻞ ﺍﻟﻔﻄﻮﺭ ﻛﻮﺏ ﻣﺎﺀ ﺩﺍﻓﺊ ﻣﺬﺍﺏ ﻓﻴﻪ ﻣﻠﻌﻘﺔ ﻋﺴﻞ

ﺍﻟﻔﻄﻮﺭ :

4 ﻣﻌﺎﻟﻖ ﺷﻮﻓﺎﻥ ﻛﺒﻴﺮﺓ ﻣﻊ ﻛﻮﺏ ﺣﻠﻴﺐ ﻗﻠﻴﻞ ﺍﻟﺪﺳﻢ

ﺃﻭ ﻋﺼﻴﺮ ﺑﺮﺗﻘﺎﻝ ﻣﻊ ﺻﺤﻦ ﺻﻐﻴﺮ ﻓﻮﻝ ﻣﺪﻣﺲ ﻭﺧﺒﺰﺓ ﺳﻤﺮﺍ

ﺍﻟﻐﺪﺍ:

ﻃﺒﻖ ﻣﻔﺮﻛﺔ ﻛﻮﺳﺎ ﻣﻊ ﺳﻠﻄﺔ ﻓﻴﻬﺎ ﺷﻮﻓﺎﻥ

ﺃﻭ ﻃﺒﻖ ﺳﺒﺎﻧﺦ ﻣﻊ ﺳﻠﻄﺔ ﺳﺒﺎﻧﺦ ﻓﻴﻬﺎ ﺷﻮﻓﺎﻥ

ﺳﻠﻄﺔ ﺑﻄﺎﻃﺎ ﻣﻊ ﺳﻠﻄﺔ ﻓﻴﻬﺎ ﺧﺲ ﻧﻌﻨﻊ ﺑﺼﻞ ﺃﺧﻀﺮ ﻭﺷﻮﻓﺎﻥ

ﺑﻌﺪ ﺳﺎﻋﺘﻴﻦ ﻛﻮﺏ ﺻﻐﻴﺮ ﻗﻤﺮ ﺍﻟﺪﻳﻦ

ﺍﻟﻌﺸﺎﺀ:

ﺗﻔﺎﺡ ﻭ ﺑﺎﺑﻮﻧﺞ ﺃﻭ ﺃﻧﻨﺎﺱ ﻭﺑﺎﺑﻮﻧﺞ

ﻗﺒﻞ ﺍﻟﻨﻮﻡ ﻣﻠﻌﻘﺔ ﺯﻳﺖ ﺯﻳﺘﻮﻥ

I will follow it for the next week...

I was extremely sad when I found out that I lost less than a kilo last ten days ..

Akid plus my Protein shake..

Tell me your opinion please :)

SyrRose,

Did you get this from your sleeve nutritionist? It seems like a normal diet. I haven't found one nutritionist that is too experienced with sleeve surgery here in Lebanon. You need more Protein and less carbohydrates. How far are you post surgery?

Online read about a program by a Dr. Joseph Chebli, it gives you a good starting program. Just Google his name.

Good luck

Salaam where are you from? I know what you mean I was sleeved December 8 and really don't get hungry at all but make myself eat my Protein and vegetable when I can fit it in after the protein. I too get very light headed especially during the mornings :)

        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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
