I started Calcium chewable and Multivitamins because the Vitamins crushed are getting very hard to go down lately., the funny part is that I am expending so much Time cooking my special recipes I found ( pure )and after 4 bites I get this stuck feeling on my chest.. Not losing much but I do not want to worry that much about that...

My weight was 182 before pre op diet .. now 160.. I have lost about 22 including the prep op 11 pounds so 11 after surgery.., maybe I am not drinking enough Water.., but its hard to keep it up all day thinking about drinking, eating, working, kids on vacation ... So much!! I am getting between 600-800 calories .. Any advice?

I'm a June 10th-er too. Since surgery down 12lbs as of this past Monday. Usually get at least 50oz of Water in and a little over 60g of Protein. I think what helps in that area is that I have the nectar Fuzzy Navel powder every morning. Right there is 23g of protein. At my 2 week follow-up I went from full liquids to soft solids. Usually have rotisserie chicken, tuna or deli turkey with some cheese and low-fat mayo. Been walking at least 3 miles a day, 4-6 days a week, since about day 7. I have been somewhat fortunate in that I got laid off the Friday before my surgery so I have had the last month to really focus on healing and my diet. Have an interview tomorrow so my days of rest may be coming to an end soon!

You got sleeved weighing 182? Wow you weren't big at all. You have little to loose. Good luck

Yes, but I am only 5 feet tall so 35 bmi, i also had many issues, allergies, border line diabetes and high cholesterol. Hopefully my new labs show better numbers next time. In addition lower back arthritis that makes really hard to exercise and move around...

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
