I was 308 on sept 10 (day of surgery) now 282, and going back to work tommmorow almost 3 weeks later. What other info do you need?

i was sleeved 9/10/13 and i didn't have a preop diet

Pre op i was 308LB Today day 17 i am about 283LB's. I am supposed to be in my mushy food phase but i can barely eat anything, maximum half and egg or 2 oz of a mushy food like mashed potatoes. Water is not my friend either can barely get down 4 ounces. However i can drink the water if its flavored and i can drink an 8oz protein shake. If i force myself to eat the 4 oz of mushy i most likely will vomit... is this normal? is is supposed to get better? am i worrying for nothing?

i have no problems with shakes i can get down 8oz easy

8 weeks wow, good to know thanks , when are you planning on starting solid foods, or are you already?

Cause i thought i was supposed to eat 4 ounces, it only happened once, didnt do that again

Im 17 days post op.. thanks for the responses guys but i just don't feel right i quit smoking also so maybee its just the nicotine withdrawal messing with my head.

Status Update: had surgery on 9/10

just wanted to say hello, thinking of getting started on this journey, gathering info now i guess. checking out the pros and cons between lapband and Gastric sleeve. If anyone has some words of wisdom that would be great... thanks

So I got approved going in 8/25 it just got real

I'm pre op getting it done on the 28th nice to see locals I'm in Passaic county

defiantly does help thanks

Thats actually a good idea thanks.

@JoiaRox, thank you for the information, it seems like what i keep hearing everywhere i read is the lapband is not all its cracked up to be, and most people end up getting it removed.. does that sound right?
