I was sleeved on July 15th and so far I am doing well. I am still struggling with my liquid goal of 80 ounces and Protein goal of 100grams

My problem is that I am still in liquid stage and I do from time to time have what i feel is hunger pains..I thought that would not happen for months.

i htought i was the only one i get hunger pain to and im still on the liquid diet everyone says how there not hungry at all but i am i wonder will it pass when we can move to the phase???

Hi everyone, I was sleeved on the 17th and I am in the heavy liquid phase - jason's deli and quizno's broc cheese Soup has helped as a serving is about 9 grams of Protein - I liquify it and then add a scoop of the unflavored Unjury protein so I get about 30 gr of protein - I know it has fat but right now I am just worried about my protein...also bought all kinds of sugar free puddings - bannna creme,choc,vanilla,pastachio,lemon and making it with skim milk and adding unflavored protein to it and getting about 10 gr of portein that way too....unjury choc and vanilla shakes are tasty too. good luck anyone andy other ideas during the heavy stage would be appreciated. anyone found any sugar free yogurts?

Hi everybody i was sleeved on 2/7/13 the day after surgery was terrible was not able to complete even 30ml clear liquid, but now i am on soft diet and i feels really good seeing that i have lost 13 Kgs. till date and also at times when people appreciate that i have lost weight. But life has become to hectic as before surgery working for nearly 18 hours a day thinking of taking a vaccation of 2 days and having nice sleep. Is there anybody from india because i am from Mumbai, India. So if anybody sleeved from India please come share ur experience. Also i am a strict Vegetarian if members here can share pure vegetarian recipe it will be great.

Hi folks,

Got sleeved July 1st. Down 37 lbs. First week is hard but it gets better. I had my two smallest incisions open up after I removed the stitches. This has been the hardest part. Just made the healing time longer which means no swimming and I've really been looking forward to that. Now one is infected and I'm on antibiotics. Still with all that I'm feeling good, on soft foods and losing weight.

I was sleeved on 7/11 and since the 5th day post-op I havent had a problem getting my shakes down. Also' date=' just started yesterday on my soft/pureed foods and seem to be able to eat more than I thought. I made eggs last night and ate about 1/2 cup. Today I had cottage cheese and was almost able to finish one of those small single servings. I don't get sick, I just feel full and stop. I am worried that it's too much???? I thought it would be harder than this. Should I be concerned???[/quote']

I was sleeved on 7/12/13 and I eating with not getting sick, i think is normal, continue to eat what your doctor recommends. Good Luck

I had my surgery July 18th! I'm in the 2nd phase of my diet. The cream of whatever Soups are messing up my already messed up gi tract! I started taking lactaid with my 1st bite and has decreased the trips to the bathroom by half :/ anyone else having this issue? Reading the posts on here about returning to work is a little scary bc I have to stand for atleast 6-8 hours straight...

I was sleeved on July 24. I had no pain other than the gas pains. Per my doctors instructions, I started my full liquid diet today. My only complaint is that I have had diarrhea ever since my surgery. I do my one week follow up and get my staples out on Thursday. I am not highly concerned about my BMs other than I am still pushing to get 48 oz of fluids a day.

Congratulations and good luck to all!!

Dear July Sleevers' date='

Are Protein shakes part of the 64 ounces? Or do we not include them in the total goal of 64 ounces?

I was sleeved on Thursday (July 25) and am now four days out (wow, can't believe it, so surreal).

Thanks in advance for your insight![/quote']

My doc said to include Protein shakes/drinks in the daily total.

      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! 😞
