16 days out and doing great



Recommended Posts

Hi all. 16 days ago I was sleeved. Getting my Water in and eating normally... meaning chewing vs puree and tolerating all foods. Cant eat any raw veggies; cook them up soft, Soups are wonderful, tuna, chicken, fish, of course I tried pizza and that was too much. Too doughy and heavy in stomach. I am eating small portions, slower pace at the table, exercising every day and happy. Down 16 lbs since surgery. This, I can do. No nausea, have not vomited at all, no bathroom problems either.

I'm 16 days out as well!!! Down 22 lbs since preop diet, and the difference is noticeable! Anything with red sauce is not my friend right now;(. Kinda stinks because I love chili which is such a great source of Protein. Baby steps, right?

I hope I can say this at 16 days. Day 5 and it's not so great.

It's more emotional than physical for me at the moment. Not interested in eating or drinking but know I have to. I'm trying day by day. Some days I have really good consumption other days I don't. I know it will get better just have to take it day by day

@@De6270 oooh, if you like pizza, try cauliflower pizza. I'm so addicted to that recipe. I'm on my phone, otherwise I'd link you to recipe but there are lots of them.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
