Has anyone’s surgeon mentioned that they don’t want them to drink Protein Shakes? Especially the premade shakes. Just wondering because I had someone mention to me that her surgeon does not want them to drink Protein.

FWIW- I asked my dr the reason behind not using straws. He said that the air you pull in before the liquid creates gas in the pouch. This causes unwanted pressure.

Thank you. Those are all things I need to hear, today and probably in 2, 4, 6, 8 weeks and more. I have spent my whole life focusing on the pounds and should have been doing all those things you just said. Great support system, thank you again, and of course I'll keep you updated.

Good Luck !!!! it's 10:15 and you probably in prep right now feeling nervous and excited too or maybe you already saw the anesthesiologist and not feeling nothing lol....anyway just wanted to say im sending up prayer for you if you accept....reach me later if you feel like it...

Hi :) I had my sleeve on the 25th of November. Everything is new. I’m having trouble with Water. I think I’m not drinking enough. I feel weird inside. Maybe it’s because I’ve never suffered from indigestion or heartburn so I don’t know... I started my medication so hopefully this gets better.

I had my surgery yesterday, and I can relate. I did have a little heartburn before, but this feels really different. Its almost like I can feel everything I drink through the middle of my back.

All set for tomorrow ! Super nervous I feel like I’m not going to be able to sleep tonight 😳

@Deseree5 I noticed that you only lost 7 lbs during your preop diet... That's what happened to me too. Also, now that I'm home from surgery 2 days ago I have gained 2 lbs of that 7 back. Just curious to know if your weight loss picked up or if you are still slow losing?

So happy that I'm not the only one! Well, I was several pounds heavier after surgery and today, 7 days post-op, I'm finally at my surgery weight - lol. But I'm not concerned either. If I've learned anything by reading these boards, it's that if I follow my plan, it will work. I'm also dreaming of the pureed stage. In my program, that happens December 5th.

@HappyHikerGal I'm two days post-op now and I'm still 3 lbs more than my surgery weight. Very depressing to go through the pre-op diet and only lose 7 lbs in two weeks, thank again 4 of those 7 lbs back post surgery. How are you doing now? Have you started lose yet?

I have, yay! Today I am 11 days post op and 10 pounds under my surgery weight. When the scale started moving, I was so happy to finally be in the weight loss honeymoon. I will try to be equally patient when I hit the week 3 stall . Anyway I feel like everything I worked so hard for in the pre- op and operation experience has arrived!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
