I had my sleeve done on july 9,12. I cant seem to eat alot at any one time, but can eat or drink several times aday. I eat alot of soups and soft Chinese noodles alot of flavor but easy on the stomach. I have a friend who had this done a couple years ago and lost 130 lbs who has helped me alot..She saids it just takes time you will be able to eat about anything just not as much, but you need to keep drinking the protein drinks you'll get enough vit/protein..I have a question for you I have lost 25 lbs in the first 5-6 weeks but since then nothing not an ounce did that happen to you ??????????????
