Any March 2018 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

For those that have already been sleeved, how are you doing with Protein intake since surgery? I've developed a little bit of an intolerance to straight skimmed milk, but I am tolerating low fat natural yoghurt and Greek yoghurt ok. Are you using protein powders to up your protein or have you some other "go to" fluids.

Hi, I've been using Protein Powder isocool since day 4 after surgery 2 scoops with 8 oz of Water after day six 4oz of water + 4oz of skimmed milk or almond milk (i dont really like skimmed milk so i decided to make my own home made almond milk) you cant believe how good the protein taste but be careful i drank around of 5oz or 6oz really fast and felt so bloated like i had eaten a whole cow [emoji14] had to lay down for a couple of hours

I'm doing great with Protein. I start off each day with a Premier Protein brand premade shake which has 30 grams! I have greek yogurt which has about 12 grams. I have 1- 16oz bottle of Protein2 0 which is a protein infused Water that has 15 grams or the Premier Protein Clear which has 20 grams (I was told that the protein water counts toward both fluids and protein so double whammy 😁) The rest of my fluids are plain water. Then I finish the day with another Premier Protein Shake (30 grams) or a pudding, Soup, etc with unflavored protein powder added (10-20 grams) So, protein intake can range from 67-92 grams. I am a 4' 11" female.

I’m still a little sore. Struggling to get fluids in as most things I’m drinking just make me nauseous.. but it seems to have settled a little tonight. Only day 4 so things are only going to get better right?

Doing well nutritionally but my right-side incisions are still twanging when I use my muscles - I'm a stomach sleeper and haven't been able to lie on my stomach without it hurting for a week now. Driving me a little insane.

Who knows. I think they are usually cautious about coughs, fever, diarrhea, vomiting, etc. I'm not sure about a stuffy nose though. I would just see how you're feeling in the morning tomorrow, and then go and try. The worst they can do it move you to a later spot.

I am also tomorrow, but 2 pm. Good luck to you!

      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?
