Getting sleeved tomorrow



Recommended Posts

I can't believe the day is finally here! I get sleeved tomorrow, September 18th, and I couldn't be more excited! I've lost a total of 25 pounds in the last 2 weeks during my pre-op diet for a grand total of 45 pounds. Anyone else getting sleeved tomorrow?

Thank you so much! My pre-op diet was 2 weeks. The first week I could have 3 Protein Shakes and a meal for dinner consisting of a Protein and vegetable. Week 2 has been 5 protein shakes a day. I had to purchase Bariatric Advantage from my doctor's office, but it tasted like baby formula. Slim fast has 20g of protein shakes that are tolerable. Premier Protein is pretty great and their shakes are 30g. There's a website called Unjury, they have a chicken Soup flavored powder that is really good and 21g of protein. Their unflavored powder can go in any drink also with 21g of protein. If you mix them in your shaker bottle, they totally dissolve and it isn't a thick consistency. You almost can't taste the unflavored powder. I hope this helps! Good luck!

Hi kristin....i just you d this app and I think I am glad I did, I too will have surgery tomorrow and I am concerned. All the things I am reading everyone did a 2 week pre-op diet, my doctor only had me do a 7 day one. Guess it's too late now since my surgery is scheduled for 8:45am..

My sleeve date is Tuesday the 19th. I am super excited. I think I have nervous energy tonight. Laundry is done . I have my hospital bag packed. All my clear Proteins lined up ready to go. It's like "nesting" at the end of pregnancy. Its taken about 9 months of preparation, testing etc to get to this point! Let's do this!

Thanks everyone!! Surgery was yesterday and it went really well. I'm not in much pain. I just got my first meal tray with broth and a New Whey Protein shot. If I tolerate it well then I'll get to go home in a few hours!!

      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! 😞
