September Sleevers How are we doing?

Just reaching out to my fellow September sleevers. I had surgery on the 25th. I've got no NUT and no support from my surgeon so this is where I get all my info.

SW 214 CW 205

Would love to hear from some other Sept people!

  • Sleeved 09.08.2015 - An easy way to get your protein in is to use Genepro protein powder. 30gm per tbsp! Tasteless and mixes with hot or cold. I buy mine on Amazon.

Sleeved on Sept 3rd. Started my journey on May 1st. Since my consultation i have lost 97 lbs. I took the warning that my doctor gave me to lose weight before surgery very seriously. He said that it would make the surgery and healing easier. Im at 6 weeks post of and feel great physically. Metally, eh, could be better. We were all fat for the most part because we liked to eat. Now i do not like eating at all. It has become a job and it makes me sad. Everyone says it will get better so I keep that in mind(all the time). Dont get me wrong, the weight loss and the ability to move again is Tremendous and i would never want to go back to where is was. I do miss enjoying food though.

where from in NY?

Surgery: 9/14

I'm doing ok but wish I was doing better.

The weightloss is fine, I'm down 25 lbs in total (before and after surgery) I think 15 lbs since surgery.

I can't seem to go number 2 unless I take milk of magnesia. They gave me colase but it doesn't do anything.

I can't get in enough Water and I really try but unless all I do is sip water when I'm not eating I don't know how to do it.

I can't get in enough Protein because I really really don't want to have shakes.

I had to stop taking the Multivitamin i ordered for after surgery because it made me nearly vomit.

Other than that I'm doing ok with food and on and off with energy.

I was against shakes, because mine were horrible in the past. I found chocolate AMP at GNC and it is pretty good. My dad said it tasted like chocolate milk. It's the only way I feel like I'm getting enough protein.

I just found this Protein powder which is tasteless and you can add it to almost everything and the best part of it all is that it is 30 grams of protein per 1 tablespoon. maybe this is something that could be good for you to get your protein in. it's called Musclegen Research GENEPRO Protein Powder and i picked it up at amazon.com

@@RobinGee I've been using the mdpatch vitamins. They are just little patches you put on your skin everyday.

@@RobinGee I am using the MDPatch vitamins! Have you tried them? They are very comfortable and I hear they are working great with getting the levels up as shown in blood tests.
