Wow!!! Your progress is awesome, congratulations!!! I go for my post op on Thursday, so I will find out where I am in terms of weight then. I had LOTS of pain after surgery, but I am still happy with the decision I made to be sleeved.

Pure protein is good , I found it at vitamine shoppe. The pre-mixed cans are really good.

IsB none of what your eating hurts going down? You can never go wrong with all the protien and your calorie intake is still very low. Im sure you will do well.

I just logged mine and im at. 68......not good

I need a scale, mine gives a different number from minute to minute. I was down 25 total when i took my drain out friday.

Mine finally went away, I think it was those strong pain meds

I had tuna fish from subway this evening and I fell like I'm about to hurl!!!! So I guess I have a food item in my list which makes me mad because I really enjoyed tuna prior to surgery........oh we'll........I better be in some cute shorts next summer..lol!!

I was sleeved on 10/24 and the gas gets better every other day....... It took me 2 days to pass gas and I will admit it felt good!!

How long have the 2 of you been sleeved? It's been since 10/24 for me.

Celery is on my never list, so it's safe to say that's accurate. Do the pork chops get stuck?

Different type of wrap, thanks for answering.

Exactly, I just got my sleeve last week so I'm still recuperating. I am so looking forward to the upcoming months of skinnyville.

Ok, do you have follow up with specifics amounts of Water for the next few days? If I'm asking too much, ignore me. I'm just comparing what I've heard from others.

What type of wrap did you get?

It's finally out!!!! Yippee!!!

So..... I had my surgery 10/24 (Wednesday), and today when I got out the shower I changed the bandage over my drainage. Well this evening, I noticed that there was some lite-yellow-orange-Red ,color seeping through the gauze. Should I be concerned? I'm not sure I understand the reasoning behind this thing anyways.....

I am exactly 1 week out from surgery, and my stomach and back aches so bad. If I breathe in hard, if I swallow to hard, and I still have my drain in so I can sleep on one side of my body (I.e.side that aches). Sleeping on back causes more pain cause there is too much space between my butt and back and that causes discomfort. I'm not sure what I can do to get relief, my husband thinks I should take the pain medicine, but I'm not so sure that it will help this type of pain. Someone please tell me that is will pass soon, I really thought at one week out that I would feel better than this.

Elevating my knees/legs I'm going to try that tonight. Thank you both.
