Anyone sleeve the week of 6/25?



Recommended Posts

Anyone sleeve the week of 6/25? I had my surgery on 6/27. How are you all doing? I'm at the phase of eating mushy foods and tolerating Protein Shakes. Definately a learning process. Down 7ish lbs. Curious about everyone else. Btw Dr wizman was the surgeon at coral springs mc.

Well it feels good to know I'm not alone. I felt depressed for the 1st 2 days, pretty bad, felt like I made a mistake. My outlook has changed since then. This forum has helped a lot by reading and seeing I'm not alone.

Cold liquids cause me to have stomach pains, not sure if pain is a good word, it feels like preop when your super hungry, like a strong grumble.

I can eat but I have to eat slowly, like really slowly. A yogurt can take me 15min.

Had surgery on the 28th I was the last one that day so didn't get up into a room until 9pm. Still at the hospital battling high blood pressure and low potassium. First 2 days were extremely difficult. I am feeling much better like I just got over the surgery hump. I taking liquids fine today I start full liquids. Hoping I will be discharged to day however just woke up to half of my face swollen. Need to figure. Our what that's about. Wishing everyone here a speedy recovery.

Pillows pillows pillows. That's how I did it. My incision is on my right side and that's the side I sleep on. Wasn't able to sleep on that side till day 7 but used a pillow to relive the pressure. I'm nine days out now. Getting better. Sleeved on 6/22/17

I had Gastric Bypass on June 27. I don't have any problems getting fluids down.

My Dr has me drink one oz of Water every fifteen minutes. I look forward to the 1oz of cream of wheat and pudding. I don't think I get hungry it's probably head hunger. I am adding more 1 oz Protein Shake shots today.

My pain is mostly from gas. I hope my surgery worked. It's weird that I am not experiencing what everyone else is.

Is anyone else getting their fluids down no problem?

I had sleeve on 6/27. So far, no issues. Liquids go down easily and I even have some "mind hungry". I was up on the first day and I am taking 3 15-minutes slow walk a day. Still concerned that I will be hungry all the time, as I did not expect it on day 5. But optimist that it will work well.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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... :(
