Any May 2014 sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Angie I would not move to puréed until your doc says. You can try sugar free pudding, that was easy for me. Also Dannon Light an Fit Greek Yogurt in Coconut vanilla saved me.

Thanks but I really hate pudding and yogurt but I appreciate the offers

I'm having a very difficult time staying hydrated and getting all the Protein in. I feel like I am ready to move on to puréed to but I'm scared of doing something that will be harmful. I am supposed to do full liquids until the 29th. Anyone move to puréed on the second week with no harmful effects?

I did, I was so tired of soup! I followed one of our fellow sleevers who was sleeved on the same day I was! I was spose to start May 23, but I started Sunday past!

On my diet I start puréed foods on week 2

I'm scheduled for surgery may 20th! Scared, and excited. I have a small scattered family so support is what I'm worried about. I know I'm going to need it. Best of health to all the May sleeves!

Don't be scared

I just ate some puréed spaghetti sauce with deer meat. About an oz. No noodles. Feels fine so far.

Just got my date the 28th. I was at the office seeing the shrink. As I was about to leave they told me the insurance was approved and ask me to pick a date. I was not ready for this. Turned out my doc had a cancelation. The office girls could see me turn green when they told me this. I am scared.

Par1959:

Just remember why you are doing this. I generally overthink everything until my decision is made. This one had me worried until the morning of but I just needed to feel the neuropathy in my feet for my worries to go. I wanted to do this because of my type 2 diabetes. They checked my blood sugar several times before and after the surgery and now I'm off all diabetes meds. The first week was hard - pains in the strangest places. Today is day 7 post-op and I'm quite happy with the results. Just keep your focus on why you chose this path to walk. And then take each step with that end in your mind.

Angie, you can't do that! I understand though, my grandma is downstairs cooking, rice neck bones and cornbread! I have been in my bedroom all day trying to avoid the smells! I understand totally,

I got sleeved May 14. More difficult recovery than I thought, as far as staying hydrated and getting Protein in. I am really just not feeling very good. Kind of blah and no energy. Also so hard with my family eating regular food and not being able to eat any of it! BUT, I have lost a total of 20 pounds so far since the pre-op diet, so that's encouraging! I know it's going to get better every day! Just need the next 2-4 weeks to go by quickly!

I was sleeved on the 16 and love my results so for down 18 lbs since is started. Fluids are going down more easily but today I was jittery because my meds I take for ADHD now go right into my stomcach and dissipate had to call my shrink and she lowed them. Gonna see me Friday to see how I do. I didn't think it could happen this fast.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
