Im officially sleeved!



Recommended Posts

I use a pill cutter and cut them in halves or quarters depending on the size and then swallow each piece at least two minutes apart.

I'm so sorry you guys are having trouble, I haven't had any trouble with my pills...and they sent me home with pills the first day! My incisions are fine too, the glue is starting to peel tho!

Hello everyone...to answer the pill questions I had no issue. I just broke them in half (scored already) and took them with a small sip of Water a few minutes apart...I was sleeved on 16 Sep (monday) then on saturday the 21st I stopped my pain pills all together and just took alieve when I needed it. I would say the hardest thing since starting soft foods/puree's is remembering that I have half a stomach and cannot have hte portions I used to have. I wasted alot of food at first and now I am getting the hang of it. Also could not tolerate the sweet Protein Drinks after surgery and found an awesome one at Walmart called Core! its not sweet and its all natural. good luck fellow sleevers!

      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! 😞
