FEBRUARY SLEEVERS 2013....how you doing after you've been Sleeved



Recommended Posts

Diet: In this diet u should use a measuring cup that my dietation gave me will send u a pic of it. No sweeteners allowed only brown sugar for use. Rule number one is to alternate food (i will be reffering to it by "or") so u cannot eat the same day the same item twice and the next day u are also obliged to eat another item. Alternating will boost ur metabolism and makes u lose weight fast. Rule number 2 u have to take ur Snacks it will also boost ur metabolism. Rule number three drink as much as u can Water all day long up to 2 litres. NB: this diet was given to me 2 weeks ago on the base of 96.8 kg my weight after 18 days is 86.8 kg. so I don't know if it will work with people who are more than 96 kg. NB : excuse me for my weak English I am originally French educated. The Diet: Breakfast : Milk + 1/2 glass of juice no sugar added no sweetener added Or 1 yoghurt non fat or 1 tbsp of lebanese labneh it's like petits suisses or French fromage blanc non fat Lunch: 1.5 cup of mashed veg. Soup or 1.5 cup of lentil soup also blended or 1.5 cup of non fat Yoghurt or ayran yoghurt snack 1: after exactly one hour of lunch u should drink green tea it helps burning the fat. Snack 2: 1 fruit mashed or pressed or 1 piece of dark chocolate or 1/2 cup of yoghurt Dinner: 3/4 cup of pudding she gave me a list of Lebanese pudding that u can find on google :) such as mohalabiyé written also mhalbiyé / sahlab/ moughli moghli or 1 backed potato or 1/2 cup of mashed rice mixed with 1/2 cup of non fat yoghurt or 1.5 cup of veg. Soup or 3/4 cup of Lebanese mdardra/ mojadara (lentil based dishes that u can also find on google) Some indication: 1) personally I couldn't eat more than half of the quantity given to me I try to eat the quantity within one hour I stop. 2) personally i take my last meal at 7 pm maximum. 3) I also avoid salt even my ayran yoghurt I buy it without salt 4) I stick to fresh juices apple and pineapple and I mix it with water. 5) I heat my milk with cinnamon 6) please do look up the recipes of the Lebanese dishes I mentioned coz they are really healthy and easy to do. 7) my dietation advised me to walk up to 40 min a day 8) i know i am so strict on myself but i really want to have a killer body before summer and beach time. 9) When I go out I drink my Nescafé gold coffee with a non fat coffee mate 10) good luck

Well I'm headed to the hospital in a few minutes to get my sleeve. My surgery is at 7:30 this morning. Even though I'm a nurse and used to surgeries I am very nervous :( It's hard being on the other side of this and not having any control lol All will go well though :) Good luck and prayers going out to all those getting sleeved today!! TTYL sleeved and ready for our new journey :)

Leak - unfortunately I have a leak. Yesterday during my one week checkup the doctor said my drain was draining Soup that I was eating. Sent me over to the hospital for a cat-scan and a upper GI which confirmed quote "a small leak and a small bubble of fluid". The surgeon explained how bad "deadly" this could become quickly and put me on a all liquid diet nothing solid including the Gummy Vitamins. Today we return to the hospital to put a "pick line" in so they can take blood' date=' put food, put medicine etc in. We are very scared and disappointed. This is certainly not what I bargained for especially because I was a PERFECT patient. I think I have a long road ahead.[/quote']

I'm sorry for your leak praying got u and your family. ????

HockeyMa, I'll save you a seat. You will do well. Just think of the fun you will have playing with your son, and your back won't be hurting and you won't be out of breath!

You will be doing laps in the hospital this evening!

Congrats on your surgery date. Hope all goes well. To answer your question I didn't have an issue swallowing my own saliva. Im a little over a week out and I can tell the difference in the amount of Water I'm able to consume. I was taking tiny tiny sip of Water the first few days' date=' but now I can actually drink maybe an oz at a time[/quote']

      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? 🤷‍♀️
