Recommended Posts

Time sure does fly !! I had my sleeve 4 weeks ago today. I was lucky that my recovery was quick and painless. The hardest part so far, is getting all my fluids & Protein in. I am getting there though. I just don't feel like eating so I do two Protein Shakes per day and a few small 3oz drinkable yogurts. I manage a few bites at lunch anda few bites at dinner (all protein, of course) I have a food and Fluid journal. I also track my BP daily since mam on meds for High BP. I am happy with the amount of weight I have lost and so happy I made this life changing decision. Wishing everyone well !!

Hi Shelly. I was sleeved 8/18 so tomorrow is my one month. Our diets sound very similar! I'm never hungry.

Just wondering if you experience nausea? Around week 3 I started getting random nausea, but two days it was SO BAD that I only had one Protein shake those days.

I'm hoping this doesn't happen while I'm at work! Returning to work on Wednesday.

Hello to all the 8/17 sleevers (and 8/18 :)

I can't believe a month has gone by either! Last year at this time I was unhappy with my weight and wondering what I would be able to do to get to a weight I would be happy with. I was wearing a size 22W, and just miserable. I could never have imagined that in March I would call the bariatric center and start this process and be ONE MONTH out at this time! I'm halfway to my goal...and I'm so thankful.

Everyone seems be doing so well! Keep it up!

      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! 😞
