August post op sleevers: Check in



Recommended Posts

Sleeved August 22 and doing really well! 17lbs since surgery.Had a little pain and nausea post op but as soon as I was hooked up to the pain pump that all went away ;) Unfortunately, I got a TERRIBLE headache that lasted all 2 days in the hospital! Liquids for 2 weeks and now I'm on soft. I will honestly say the head hunger has been the hardest thing so far, which actually surprised me. Now at almost 3 weeks out, it has gotten MUCH better. Trying different pureed food, but honestly I have pretty good restriction, so I can really only eat 3 Oz at a time. Doing pretty good getting my fluids in though. Walking, eating as much Protein as I can and excited to see the weight coming off! I feel great!

I am able to eat regular food I tried still can't do it no appetite when I do I feel like I have something stuck in my throat. So I will stay with Fluid and real soft food right now for awhile. Hope everyone else who is able to eat regular food is doing better than me

Can't concentrate on how much weight in losing because first I had a problem having a BM now I have urinary retention.. They say it's common but damn... any oddities that can happen I seem to be the victim of... Sorry not tryna be a Debbie downer it's just frustrating...

Had my 3 week check up yesterday. I've lost 22 pounds since my pre op appointment and I'm very close to onederland!

I'm cleared to eat a bigger variety with nothing crunchy, nothing spicy, and nothing that has to be cut with a knife. Went to costco yesterday and found some frozen tilapia in pesto sauce, very yummy!

I'm supposed to continue with one Protein Drink per day but I just can't get them down anymore so I'm trying to get all of my Protein without them. Got some Protein Bars, maybe that will help.

I got sleeved 8/8/14 ... I'm grateful to have lost 25 lbs. I have 25 more to go. I'm still not able to eat constantly especially the Protein intake that's recommended. I had the worst heartburn last night! I didn't sleep and I'm still lacking energy to function.

I was sleeved on 8/15 and just like you the scale is stuck I'm hopeful like everyone keep saying that it will move I'm working out as well and finally consuming what I believe is enough calories 1,000-1,100 per day and still no movement but the scale has no other choice but to move in the right direction ..... Frustrated

I know this is personal but are you regular when it come to BM because I was stuck but then I started taking extra Fiber to make me go regular and what do you know the scale started moving. Good luck I was sleeved August 18th I'm 25 down

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
