I was sleeved on the 18th and it hasn't been the easiest ride but mostly has to do to the nurses NOT doing what my doctor put in the orders. So when I got a Migraine they let me suffer for a day and 1/2 instead of giving me my meds like instructed. But I am home now and I have a few questions for some of you. Did anyone else come home with their JP drain still in and then go back in a week to have it removed? And for the 1st week I am on Clear Liquids but I'm supposed to get 60 grams of Protein my broth has 0 grams any ideas. Thanks and good luck to everyone.

Unjury also has an unflavored Protein Powder that is 21 grams of protein. I didn't have a drain at all. Premier Protein is pretty good it's 30 grams of protein in 11oz it comes in chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry you can purchase it at Sam's Club and costco.< /p>

I was sleeved on the 19th and so far have lost 1lb. I have no appetite and have to work hard to drink a little bit of anything. I'm ok with one pound and will not be stressing over how much I lose in what amount of time because it's a given....IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.. i am a bit disappointed in my intake....but my family and friends are working with me to increase my fluids and I know I risk dehydration and a hospital stay if I don't stay on top of my A game. So thanks for all the feedback and support ~BariatricBeauties~

Sip sip sip! I have been getting my fluids in pretty good. About 30ccs every twenty minutes. I start my Protein Drinks again tomorrow. Two days post op. Feeling pretty good just tired and sore.

I feel you.

Today is day 12 of the liquids for me.

I just want to reach put and eat a piece of pizza, or anything! I don't feel like I'm starving, but man. I want some real food! I did have some hello earlier, but that did not help much. Maybe it's time for another sugar free popsicle.

30 cc (1 ounce) every 20 mins is perfect. That's what my surgeon told me to shoot for.

To get in the fluids you really have to begin first thing in the AM and sip all day long.

Good that makes me feel good! Some seem to think that was too much so soon.

Ok weight loss count, how much weight have you lost since surgery? I've lost 5 pounds. Let's see how much weight our march sleeves have lost so far.

I weighed in two days ago at one week post op and I was at ZERO pounds lost. I'll weigh in again at my two week date. I'm not worried about it though. I'm just following my post op diet.. the weight will come off when it's ready.

I'm exactly 2 weeks post op. I lost 9 lbs on the 1 week pre op diet, then 9 days post op I was down a total of 25 lbs, meaning 16 lbs lost in the 9 days post op. I didn't weigh myself for 5 days, and weighed in tonight, and I actually gained 2 lbs in those 5 days! I'm following the nutrition recommendations to the letter, so I'm not sure what that's about. Kind of disheartening. It has been a lot of work to comply with everything, and I expected to see better results.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
