New here- sleeved March 18th



Recommended Posts

It feels weird even to tpe that I am already sleeved and almost a week post-op. Doing well on Water and Protein and my post-op in this Friday where I will hopefully get to move to pureed foods.

How is everyone else doing? Any others sleeved within the last week or two?

I will be sleeved April 16th so I'm interested to follow you since you're 1 month ahead of me. How is your pain after a week?

I was sleeved on Friday but dr told me only clear stuff up to day7 then to start Protein Shakes and pureed Soups. Glad to hear you are doing well. How is the heartburn for you? That is what is killing me right now. Thank god for GasX and meds.

The pain is still there, but not too bad. I opted for a second night int he hospital and was really glad I did. I have been off pain meds for about 3 days. My program is Clear liquids and Protein shakes for 2 weeks, then pureed. I am so tired of the Protein Shakes.

No problems with heartburn. Some gas pain still in the shoulders and down the tummy, but not awful. I got 4 meds for nausea/spasms/cramping and have only taken one once.

I was also sleeved on the 18th of March. I am doing great. The first week I regretted it because of the pain and the difficulty in getting in fluids. But all is great now. I am able to chew certain solid foods into pureed food in my mouth and it works great. Shrimp, sunflower seeds, hummus with club mini crackers, original Greek yogurt with strawberries and blueberries pureed (tastes like a smoothie) and cottage cheese have been my best friend along with my original Myoplex Protein drinks. :) I love the strawberry and chocolate fudge. Everything is coming along wonderfully and as expected. I am glad to hear everyone is doing well here.

Whoop whoop! Made it one month. No complications. Just glad I'm past the first week lol. Started exercising. Stopped weighing today. Will now weigh every Sunday and my Dr said to start measuring so if a plateau hits you will still see progress just in a different way. Excited to see inches come off :)

      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! 😞
