I was sleeved on 11/8 and I'm having a real hard time with pain and with getting Fluid and Protein in, I'm not coming even close to my goals for protein. Those of you that were sleeved in early November, how has your progress been?

Ohhh, be patient. My first 2 days was Water only, day 3 maybe protien hit 25. By day 5 I was at 50. Day 11 today. I am now getting 5 to 6 meals in, 58 to 60 protien and at least 48oz of water in daily. You will get there, hang in.

I just had my surgery on November 6th, going great so far! My 1 week post op appointment is tomorrow, hope to add creamed Soups and yogurt to my diet.

I had my surgery in the 8th as well. Make sure you are taking your nausea medicine as well. I was neglecting it and could barely get 30oz of Fluid. Got home and had a miserable day. My wife asked me if I was taking the medicine I said no I didn’t feel nauseous. She told me being unable to drink is exactly what the nausea is. So I started taking it and instead of taking 5 hours to get a 16oz Protein Water down on Saturday night, it took me 2.5 hours this morning and it felt much more natural. It’s a huge difference and I’d give that a try. It may take a day or so to get the dehydration under control but once you have that and nausea taken care of, it’s a lot easier.

I’ve got my post surgery appointment this Friday, and I too am looking forward to adding creamed Soups to my diet, as well as get approval for a spoonful or two of mashed potatoes on Thanksgiving.

      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.

      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! 😞
