Post op march sleevers

[pretttybird 73]

I skipped the puréed stage. For the first two weeks I lived off of Water Protein Shakes apple sauce and Sugar Free Chocolate. One day I woke up and ate scrambled eggs, and I've been on a normal diet ever since. Today I had about four bites of a Hardee's lo carb Breakfast cup, four grilled chicken nuggets from chick fil a, a small handful of cashews, and a ton of water. I feel like a normal human being again.

Ok so has anyone cheated?!!! Im a week and two days post op on full liquids and I decided to try some refried Beans tonight!:-) which were so good! I must add i didnt get nearly half as much acid reflux with that as i do eating the thimgs i should be! Anyone else expierance this? Should i not havedone this?am i harming mysrlf

I don't think you're hurting anything. I'm 8 days postop and on eggs, cottage cheese and refried beans already per my surgeon. I do fine with it. I think it's just a different opinion of surgeons.

I'm 11 days post op and I started eatting yesterday. First thing I had was an egg I was so excited then I got kinda sick. And my heartburn was soo bad I tried tums, pepto, "OTC", and some others but the only one that seems to work is my moms prescription omeaprisol or something 20mg worked in seconds literally lol I also ate cottege cheese , humus , applesauce, frozen yogurt. But all I really wanna "eat" is my sugar free Popsicles and WATER! I'm NEVER hungry which is weird for me haha. I think your good. I had a little baby bite of a cheese ball 6 days out. It was the BEST THING EVER! Lol hope everything goes well with you!(:

I was sleeved on the' date='12th and in ready for the next phase man!!! You'll be fine hang in there pray for healing in Jesus name[/quote']

I have the body aches too, almost like the flu that comes around each day, but, I have to say, I was sleeved on the 11th, and though my recovery has been slower than what I wanted, I do get a tiny bit better each day. It'll all come in time, just try to be patient.

I was sleeved on the 5th. I lost 14 pounds between the one wek liquid prior and on week post-op. However I have only lost 1 pound this past week. Is that normal? Not sure if I'm doing something wrong

I can't remember who it was, but someone on here mentioned about the "eat slower" app. GENIUS and thank you! I needed something like this and I love it. Seems crazy that a grown adult needs to have an app to tell her how often to eat, but with this new lifestyle, until I get used to it, I am going to use it. THank You, thank you, thank you. I am sure I can ween myself off of it in time, but for now, it iw really helping me a lot,

kisses to all

Hi all! I am 16 days post op today. I had a little set back with surgery and required 2 things of blood and had to stay 2 days longer than I planned. The concern I have is that I still don't have any strength and was wondering if everyone else is having the same problem. Maybe I'm just too impatient but I'm normally a very busy active person.

So I tried some cottage cheese.. granted im a fee days early on my phase three and it feels like it wants to come back up! Anyonr else experiencing this?

Hello every one, I had my surgery on March 7th and the Unjury chicken broth Protein has been my saving grace. It seems I have developed an intolerance to milk since my surgery and I can't stomach anything with milk. . .just the thought of any milk products makes me sick which sucks because I use to love milk. But oh well. . .if I have to lose milk to my journey to a healthier me. . then so be it.

I was told not to try roast until week 8 because its hard to digest.

I was told no more than 30 grams of carbs a day until you meet goal then they will be slowing added in until you have a gain. Everyone loses at a different pace also. But 12 pounds is not bad at all in a little over 2 weeks. I have lost 17 and 5 was pre op. I went to the doc today they said that it was a good amount ( my starting BMI was 38.1) The doctor also said I should lose another 15-20 by my next appt on April 19th. I know it can be discouraging though. I have gained and lost the same pound for the last week but I know it will get better and we will be skinny in no time! Keep up the good work:)

I too am not to drink milk for 10 days since I had an intolerance to it my very first shake I made. My dr said I hv to build my flora back up so im taking 2 probiotic balls 2x a day. And I LOVE MILK! Booo...it may not be permanent so I am praying to 'get milk' again!

I had the same "cry" but it didn't last long b/c we have to re-direct and sip, sip, get your Protein down and sleep and rest and recover. Walking a few times per day. Just think one day at a time. Don't get too far ahead. The sad feeling leaves faster than it hits. We are going to be HEALTHY! I know you will feel better and better! Hang in there, better days ahead....

I love milk too but it has upset my stomach so bad that I'm back to Clear Liquids. Just thinking about eating/drinking anything besides clear liquids makes me sick to my stomach. I hope you get to drink milk again
