I had surgery on 03/14/13 and everyone have been telling me that I'm slimming down except I just can't see it. I know I do feel better with the exception of lower back pain. Well I finally got on the scale today for the first time since surgery and my motivation has been renewed:) :) I've lost 55 plus lbs:) :)

You literally just took the words out of my mouth I can't even smell the Protein it makes me want to throw up !!! I'm so nauseas all the time 24/7 nothing helps I can't wait till this is over ... I do think quite often what I did to myself was I ready for this did I go to fast into there's times where I regret it.... I'm scared I really am I have had a BM in almost a week

Are you doing any better yet? I am still nauseated in the morning, till about lunch time. If I drink my protein in the morning, yuck, makes me sicker. I have been trying to eat higher protein foods, but then I feel miserable. I am not at the point where I am glad I had it yet. Seems like my weight loss has slowed down. I just want to feel like myself again or at least have some energy.

So when did everyone start eating some food that you actually have to chew?? Also what foods did you start with and how did you sleeve handle it?

I am 3 weeks out and am still on liquids, creamy soup(no chunks), sf pudding, yogurt(no fruit) and Protein shakes! I am sick of this stage and am so ready for something different!

Two weeks out I was aloud tuna chicken and egg salad. Fat free refriend Beans. Sleeve handled it fine. Only about 2-3oz. Now three weeks I am aloud ground beef and fish. Moist meat. Potatoe sweet or baked. No sugar added fruit so far sleeve is happy. Usually 3-4oz

Hey, My nausea has finally subsided, but finding it still hard to drink Protein Drinks. Tried smoothies and everything I know of. So afraid I will stall out and quit losing without my Protein. How are you doing?

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
