Sleeved 8.3.16

[ChgnSuziM 0]

I was sleeved on 8/2/16.....I'm 46 (47 in Nov)....5'3".....live in SE/Coastal GA.....

HW: 235

SW: 202.4

CW: 179.8

GW: 130-135

5 wks post-op & been on a full diet since 8/31. Still struggling to get enough fluids and calories in every day.....I've only been able to get to 800cal twice so far....still at about 2 ozs per meal (tho' last night I had 3 ozs for dinner & was miserable)....yesterday I hit 32 ozs of Water but it was not easy.....really not hungry & food isn't appealing to me....WLS medical team said that every thing I'm experiencing is completely normal for this stage of recovery and that I'm doing great....wish I had more energy & WLS medical team says that once I'm eating & drinking more my energy will increase.

All & all very happy with my decision.

Nice to meet other VSGs with similar surgiversaries!!!

Hello everyone who just got sleeved or who answered...

Doingitmyway

Are u drinking Protein drinks ?

If so what kind ?

I'm drinking nectar ones mixed with Water I also dilute apple juice. And when I feel I can't get Water down or fluids I'll chew ice crunch ice from sonic is the best

I eat sugar free Jello and with full liquids I eat cream of wheat and I feel full I make it watery so that it's easy to go down. I do get hungry at times but I drink fluids to take that hunger away.

I was feeling pain in my larger incision but it has gone away now

I also eat vanilla Greek yogurt no fruit in it also if u feel u can't front Protein Drinks cuz they are to plain u have a nutrabullet and I put ice in it and. Frozen fruit like peaches mango bananas a scoop of Protein and water and make it like a smoothie then I spoon it like ice cream it's the best if j don't finish it I'll put it in the freezer till I'm ready for more and just let it thaw and blend it again

I do the same, mostly Protein drinks or smoothies from my nutribullet. Been trying some regular foods but when it is uncomfortable I stop immediately and wait awhile and go back to liquids and or soft foods.
