????A shout to the February sleevers ????



Recommended Posts

My doc Vitamin list has Flintstones chewable on there. I don't start my Vitamins until tomorrow. I am going to try the adult kind first but I bet I end up doing the Flintstones

How are the feb Sleevers doing? Have you guys gotten use to the 'new stomach'?

I was suppose to have my sleeve done in feb and it seems quite unlikely for it to happen in feb. Most likely a March sleeve now ????

I sooooooo wanted to be a feb sleever ???? 'life is so unfair'(dramatic voice) lol

Well I hope this just gives me more time to mentally prepare myself for D-day.

How are you guys?

I'm surprised how much better I have felt the last couple days. It's been 12 days since surgery. I am able the walk and get around without pain and starting to feel back to normal (and down 14 lbs wooohooo) every single day you make so much progress. Soups are down good, I've blended them so I don't have to spit out cream of mushroom. Life is good!

What are the multivitamins that everyone is taking? Any exclusive care post gastric sleeve?

I am taking a chewable Multivitamin that my doc recommended: Bariatric Advantage Innovations Advanced Multi EA, it's got extra Iron in it and really easy to get down post surgery for me at least. In addition to that I'm taking some additional Calcium chewys that are a yummy caramel flavor and then a lil Biotin.< /p>

I'm taking bariatric advantage as well and they go down very easy ( at least for me). They aren't terribly expensive either, maybe $50 a month, which is a small portion of what I am saving on food!

I'm really tired of the liquid diet, head hunger is driving me crazy.

Heard that! I am now 15 days out and am on puréeds now. At the end of full liquids I was spending all my free time looking at recipes on Pinterest and drooling. I wouldn't recommend doing that--it's torture.

I do have a whole new appreciation for the taste of food. I so enjoy my 1/4 cup of mushy food at every meal.

Hang in there! You'll be there soon.

I'm down 22 lbs from my 1 day pre-op and the 15 days since. Feeling great--walking 1+ miles a day or biking 5+ miles. Still a bit on the tired side, but it's getting better!

Hope the rest of you fellow febbies are healing quickly as well!

I'm sorry to hear that things didn't come together in time for you to get surgery in February, but March is only a few days away! I know how hard it is to wait once you make the decision to have surgery. You are a feb sleever in spirit, so please keep us updated on your progress!

Tomorrow I m going to India for my sleeve ????, once I m there will go meet the doctor and he's gonna take up things from there....

Waiting for the surgery just feels like I m far off ????, can't wait to be on the other side.... Pre surgery nervousness and excitement is kinda nerve wrecking, wouldn't you guys agree to it?

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
