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



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on Monday. I'm still in the hospital. I'm in so much pain I can't even imagine going home without an iv. Luckily no vomiting I'm able to sip Water and juice. My belly is so tender. I'm not able to pass gas. They won't let me take gas x strips. It hurts to move. But I'm going to try to walk as much as I can tomorrow.

I have this sharp pain under my incision on my right side. it hurts most when I move a certain way like everything is pulling, does anybody else experience this?

Yes! I am in the me boat! Have you found any solutions?

I'm in the same boat as well. It sucks because I don't like chocolate and the strawberry stuff is soo sweet. It was my pre-op liquid diet staple but now all I drink is Crystal light, Water & skim milk. I'm slowly tolerating the carnation essentials choclate but that's because vanilla is the worst! I go to my support group meeting tomorrow evening so hopefully I'll get some help. :(

Nope not yet. I just keep trying. I normally take a sip or two and hand the drink to my boyfriend

Is it right beside your belly button? That's where mine is. My doctor said it was nerve pain. I'm 13 days out and it's starting to subside.

Ok stage 2 & 3 Sleever's -- What's for Breakfast?

First I get 20 ounces of Water out of the way. I use the propel to wake up and take my meds, than I sit and relax with a nice cup of tea.

Propel Zero - berry Nutrient Enhanced Water Beverage, 12fl oz

0 cal, 0 carbs, 0 fat, 0 gm Protein

Bentley's - Minty Mint Green Tea, 1 cup

0 cal, 0 carbs, 0 fat, 0 gm protein

About 20 mins later I enjoy my nice and cream shake!

Kroger Carb Master Yogurt - strawberry, 3 oz (1/2 container)

30cal, 2carbs, 1 fat, 4gm protein

Unjury Protein Shake Strawberry Sorbet, 1 scoop

100 cal, 4carbs, 0 fat, 21 gm protein

Silk Almond Milk Unsweetened (4oz - 1/2 Cup)

15cal, 1carbs, 1 fat, 1 gm protein

Total intake for breakfast:

145 calories, 7 carbs, 2 fat, 26 protein gms

I also used this breakfast for pre-surgery and Stage 1, it is quick and convenient and I will probably keep it always. You can also cut the numbers a little an use the Propel water instead of the almond milk. I often do and it still taste good.

I would be interested in what others are doing.

Thanks, jwestate

How are you mixing your shake? I am having trouble getting alot of air in shakes and they foam up. Are you using blender or shaker bottle?

      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! 😞
