Any February Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

I have my 1 week post op appointment later today. Thankfully! I'm hungry and don't really feel all the restriction other ppl have talked about. Doing well with my diet though. Happy to be on full liquids, which includes cream Soups so hopefully the doctor will tell me the rest of this is normal.



Isopure makes an unflavored one as well as genepro

Hi All! I was sleeved on Valentines Day. I’m home and doing well but the clear liquid diet is so hard. I just want a cracker lol! I have my follow up on Wednesday so hopefully I can move to the puréed diet and get the rest of my staples out. I have a really red rash on my abdomen. I’ve been taking Benadryl and Benadryl cream. Anyone know why this might be? Meds maybe? It itches so bad...

Embrace the suck and know that this is a time when you're burning the most and eating the least!

Do you want a theory or in my case a testimony? I am allergic to Hibiclens, the red liquid in the aqua bottle they give you to scrub with before surgery. Found that out before my last knee surgery,when my whole left leg looked like it was sunburned. When I have my Rny I don't know how they'll prep me, Maybe paint me with Betadine or something else. Oh Dr Miller's a smart dude, I'm sure he'll figure it all out.

Are you sure you're not allergic to Betadine? Many are. Do you have an iodine sensitivity?

Let me know if you find one I would love to have an unflavored Protein.< br />

I'm using Life Balance Pure Egg White Protein. Here is a link with some reviews, but I buy it at Trader Joe's for about $8 I think https://www.amazon.com/Life-Balance-Pure-Eggwhite-Protein/dp/B01J4ET1B6

I read that a lot of the other unflavored Proteins like Isopure, has a taste many don't like. And GENEPRO is controversial, and makes some dubious claims. The Life Balance isn't flavorless, it tastes like egg whites, so pretty neutral. It also doesn't mix well unless it's blended. But it's not a big deal to me to stick it in the Ninja with whatever I want to add it to

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
