Feb 9th & 10th sleevers...how you doing?



Recommended Posts

1. How do you feel? Any issues?

Not feeling too bad. The only real pain left is from a bulge under the incision on the right side of my tummy, where my stomach was removed from.

2. How is your water/protein intake?

Water intake is ok but I'm having a really difficult time getting in enough Protein.

3. Have you had your first follow-up appt? How did it go? If not, when is your appt?

My first follow up appointment is on the 25th. So this upcoming wednesday

4. What stage food are you on (full liquids, purees, etc.)?

Liquids but I have been adding in some pureeds as well because liquids dont sit too well in my stomach

5. Have you hit buyer's remorse yet or still glad you did it?

My buyers remorse hit as soon as I came out of anesthesia, but it is getting less and less each day

6. Lastly - how much have you lost since the surgery?

since surgery about 13 pounds :)

Hi. I'm no here. Longtime lurker, but just acrually signed up about ten minutes ago.

Sleeved on the 9th

1. How do you feel? Any issues? Nonissues. No pain. Feeling really good at this point.

2. How is your water/protein intake? I routinely hit the 80 for Protein grams. And Water on days I don't work is barely at 64 oz. But on days I work it's tons more.

3. Have you had your first follow-up appt? How did it go? If not, when is your appt? I did last week. It went really well and just felt routine-ish.

4. What stage food are you on (full liquids, purees, etc.)? pureed. I move to mushies in one week.

5. Have you hit buyer's remorse yet or still glad you did it? The first week I totally did. But I was over it by day 5.

6. Lastly - how much have you lost since the surgery? Since surgery I'm down 15lbs.

I was sleeved on the 10th. I had some issues during surgery but since I am good. The problem with me is I don't follow instructions well. Since I have been sleeved I was on liquids the first week, but this week went kind of crazy. I had a glass of wine and a piece of pizza yesterday. Why am I trying to defeat what I want to accomplish. Help.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
