My surgeon says for me not to worry about protein just yet. First we get in sugar free liquids and that's all I need on my mind. Then comes proteins a week or so later. <br><br> As for popping a out a poop, my bro in law sharted and only realized it once he got up to walk. So yeah, do not trust a fart this early on. My sister was like "well, I just had to wash Doug's ass, this is my punishment in life" lol

Oh my gosh that's funny! I'm def gonna have to be careful, no sharting for me. I would be mortified and anybody who knew would never let me forget it lol!

I just had my sleeve 2/17. It's been more difficult than I thought , but everyday gets a little better.

Same here

The first three days were the hardest for me. Hopefully you begin to feel much better from here on out.

Finally home. Still haven't passes gas or pooped. I'm so damn bloated, it sucks. Lol but hopefully being at home and taking a shower will help. Besides that, I'm doing pretty good.

I just really want the gas or whatever to go away. Like I wish I could bend over or something. I've even had 2 fingers up my butt, and some milk of magnesia. Nothing.

But. I know it'll get better, so I just keep telling myself that over and over. :)

Hey everyone I am having trouble getting the estimated amount of protein and fluids in. Today has been a little better with the liquids just I can't picture drinking that much protein right now... I was sleeved on Monday feb 17th... Should I call my dietitian ?

if you do 2 premeir protein shakes a day that gives you 60 grams of protein for the day

I know the feeling my belly has been hard as a rock until today when everything let loose, feel much better now.

I don't think you need to call your dietician yet. My hospital makes us see our dietician one week out (group class) and everyone was struggling to meet their protein needs. I was only getting one shake a day and they were okay as long as I drank all my water.

Ok thanks Jen! I am working on a protein shake right now! Looks like I didn't really make a dent in it yet!!

The first day I finished a whole shake was Wednesday which was day six for me. I took it to my group class with a lot of ice. It was a 2 hour class from 10-12 so I made it at 8 like normal and took it with. I finished the shake and a 16oz bottle of water. I was so proud. But I don't usually sit around and have time for that. I have my daughter to watch/run around with at home so I set it in the fridge and end up focusing in water and forgetting the shake in the fridge. Lol. I have gotten better though.

I didn't have a bowel movemenr for 3 days and now, well, explosive is all I can say! I heard this is very normal
