January 2014 Sleevers Come In!



Recommended Posts

This is my first time here. My date is Jan 15 and I am on day 4 of my liquids only. Part of me feels this is easier than I expected and part of me is dreading having to keep this up after surgery.

Welcome and congrats! Looks like your a couple days away from changing your life.

They shud have kept you in hospital until you could swallow Water without vomiting it back!

Reduce the amount of water taken on each sip and increase the time in between sips to abt 30 mins - you shud do better in another days time and then increase the frequency of water intake as soon as you stop bringing it back out.

Take small steps at a time! Cheers

In one sitting? With no pain? You are LUCKY!!

It took me two hours to eat my Jello cup today. Yesterday I couldn't do it. I think it really does depend on your healing process. It looks like mine is going to take awhile. I can't tolerate hardly anything. I just asked my mother to go buy me jars of baby food....something has to work! It took me 24 hours to drink a 16.9 oz bottle of water!!!!

So sorry to hear your having a hard time with your food. Sending Healing prayers your way.

5 day count down for me. And I am getting excited and nervous all at the same time. The only problem is the hospital wont let me daughter come and send me off to surgery with a hug and a kiss so that part is a hard one.

That's odd. The hospital I used let my mom sit with me in the preop room and let her give me a hug before they wheeled me out to the operating suite. I'm sorry they won't let you have your daughter with 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! 😞
