Just got sleeved on Thursday, October 31st



Recommended Posts

Take thinks slow and easy. Focus on getting in fluids first and food second. I wasn't able to eat much more than a few bites of popsicle a day for the first week. So I focused on staying hydrated.

Elliot everyone,

Just got sleeve two days ago. Having a difficult time getting Water and Protein in. Any advice?

I agree, take your time your stomach has to relearn what you want it to do so it takes time. There are liquid Proteins out there that you can add to Water and it's like drinking Vitamin water and it's not chalky like the powders are. Popsicles are great for keeping your fluids up. When you can, try strained cream Soups the flavors are great after the initial water and broth you are probably on. Best wishes on your journey.

Congratulations of getting sleeved! My surgery is not scheduled until December 9th so I can't provide you much in the way of advice. Have you tried Isopure, the Liquid Protein? Perhaps if you sip it slowly? Have you had any amount of pain from your surgery and do you feel hunger or the desire to eat? Best of luck to you!!

      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! 😞
