Sleeve on 7/29 (or close), how are we doing?



Recommended Posts

Surgery on 7/29. Am on liquid diet, plus Protein Drinks. Suppose to do this until 21 days. I would like something more before then, some yogurt or watered down outmeal. Wanted to see where others that were sleeved around the same time is with their diet.

I was sleeved on 7/31 and I am feeling fantastic! I was feeling great the day after surgery and have had zero complications so far. I walk a lot, am getting 60-70g of Protein a day. I'm just working on upping my calories since I'm on the low end still and trying to drink as much Water as possible.

I'm on Protein shakes and broths mixed with unflavored Protein. Not sick of them yet, I'm stocked up and ready for my puree stage. Looking forward to a little more sustenance.

I start stage two after 2 weeks. So this coming weekend I'll start easing into them. I'm taking it slow to avoid any complications and to get the maximum weight loss. I don't want to ruin this lol

Let me know how stage 2 goes, my dr does not move to stage 2 until 21 days. Let me know what goes down easy and what did not go so well.

Just had my 2 week check up. Everything looks good, but i have been told to stay on the liquid diet 8 more days. Also i jane not lost any weight in the last 3 days. How can i only consume 500 calories a day and not lose? Just frustrated. Anyone else having this problem?

Are you doing any sort of physical activity? If you are staying mostly sedentary that could affect it, or you may be shrinking and just not having the lbs come off. Up your activity and see what happens

That's great! Maybe try to break it up into a few walks throughout the day. Every bit helps.

You and I were sleeved on the same day. I still have 6 more days of liquid diet left before moving to the soft foods stage. I cannot wait.

      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.

      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... :(
