I have anxiety as well. It's my own worst enemy. Im constantly thinking something is wrong! Hahaa glad to know I'm not the only one whose having those noises. I'm deff going slow and deff need to increase water intake. Only getting in about 20 medicine cups/20 oz a day and that's pushing it.

Hey everyone I had my sleeve done 6th as well. I came home last night and have been doing fair. I am so sore still on the left side of my abdomen and find it hard to stand up straight or deep breath. Anyone else with this? Also trying to take in fluids as best as i can but Its difficult! Did they tell u how many ounces a day of water we should be having? I was quite groggy while I saw the nutritionist and now I'm having a tough time remembering. I love this app and so happy to have everyone to talk to. Anyone else have a drain? Mine comes out next Thursday I can't wait ! I do notice I'm very bubbly gassy and crampy everytime I take sips of anything I can feel it actually go through my stomach. Very strange I hope it passes.

Wow that's great. I'm having a tough time getting even my little medicine cups full of water and yogurt in. I'm not nauseas just very crampy. I can hear my stomach noises from a mile away.

Thanks so much! I was worried because they Didnt say they were made with that milk then I couldn't eat them. I agree clear liquids made me very gassy and crampy. I do better with yogurt and pudding. Good luck and keep in touch if you would like! Im three days post op currently and just got home from hospital.

hi everyone, im 3days postop, started stage one liquids...pudding, protein shake, milk extc.... Having a tough time with wanting to eat also Once I do I get very gassy/crampy and can actually feel the liquids as they go down. Im taking 30mls in 30 mins they want me to do it in 15....No leak was found everything is normal. Just feeling extremely gassy. I have had a few bowel movements and was able to pas gas. Anyone else experience this?

Yeah I think the dairy pudding and shake are causing me gas as well. I have to say the pain is way more then I expected! I find it very hard to take deep breaths and stand up straight...I keep using the breathing thing they give u and walking that seems to help too. Anyone else have bowel movements? I have had about 4 liquid

Thanks so much! They had me at clears for only one day now I'm full liquids for next two weeks. I am glad this feeling is normal because I was getting nervous something was wrong. Couldn't figure out why I feel so crampy!

Aug 6th for me. Very exited and nervous!
