I'm glad I'm not the only person with staples! I was seriously beginning to think they just wanted me to look like Frankenstein. Every Single one of my incisions is stapled....

I was sleeved on 11/13! The first two days were pretty sucky. I was nauseous and I woke up in a lot of pain in recovery. After I got home- I was ready to go! I went to my daughters last soccer game and it felt amazing to get out of the house. I've been doing great at getting my liquids in however my protein is a whole other issue.... I'm getting better!!

I tried my best to. I probably did 1 oz in ~ 10-12? I'm impatient by nature

My first out to lunch was broth of tortilla soup.... It was like the magic food fairies brought me the best batch ever made . This was Saturday.

I'm one week out also and having the same worries. My best friend is a bikini model... I wish I was kidding.... She eats like a horse. It drives me mad! This thanksgiving is going to be horrible. I don't know about you- but my family celebrates EVERYTHING with food. Oh- you had a baby lets go have dinner... Oh- you lost your first tooth lets have a feast. It's going to be hard. I know most people on maintenance are maintaining on 1200-1500 calories- some lower though.

I'm 4'11 and I was 235 the morning of surgery last week. This morning I was 229.

Hi everyone! I hope it's ok I join in here. I had my surgery 11/13. I'm doing decent getting my fluids in and I'm starting to feel like a real human again. I had one of the not fun early recoveries and I was nauseous from immediately after surgery until day 3. I woke up in terrible pain in recovery. But that has subsided. I did start my TOM yesterday and I have had diarrhea for the last 2 days.
