ooooh, my stomach cramps everytime I drink. I just had the vertical sleeve procedure yesterday, Feb. 5th, so this is my 2nd day post-op. I am following the sleeve diet regimen: 1 ounce of liquid diet every 15 minutes x 12 hours/day. My starting weight was 212.4 lbs and I my goal is 150 lbs. After surgery, I had gas pain which went away soon after my nurse administereda dose of mylicon and pepcid. Other then this, I'm doing fine. As for the cramping, my new stomach has to heal.

P.S., yes it's more interesting to post before and after pictures so I will this weekend.

But of course! I was taking in the liquids too fast. Thanks Kelly, slow sips did the trick and the cramps lessen much. I was told to do this, but I guess I forgot. Thank God for these forums for support. God luck to all who responded to my cramps. We are off to a new chapter in our lives guys! Lets keep the support going.
