Got sleeved 5 days ago. Is it normal to feel bloated and still have gas pains?? And no weight loss on clear liquid diet?? I'm in panic!! Please help!!

Sounds GREAT! Dragonfly#

Congrats on your next step to soft foods!!! That's awesome!!! So I too just saw my first 5 lbs gone on my 5th day post-op. Yes!! Finally! I woke up this morning with a whole different vision because of of all the info I have read and advice I have received. Went straight from bed to walk , of course after brushing my teeth, lol. Came in and drank 8 oz Water . Step on on scale and am smiling from ear to ear. Next step is increase Protein .. So how does that clear Protein Drink taste?? And how much walking is sufficient?? Thanks for your ideas , support and advice!!! We can do this!!! Thanks Dragonfly#

Thanks Denise and Nancy .. Wish u both all the best in Your success!!! Dragonfly#

Sorry it's 2:00am and I'm really excited after reading thought this site excuse my misspelling ... I really appreciate all the advice.. Dragonfly#

So s I'm reading through all the posts and replays .. It is finally hitting me that in order to lose weight more effectively meals will need to be replaced by protein shakes and exercise for faster results?? Am I correct??? So when can I start protein shakes during post op?? I was instructed on the clear liquid diet for the first week..crystal light , jello, water , and of course all sugar free.. .. Just not feeling satisfied .. Any suggestions?

Thanks Nancy!! You are right water has been the least of my intake.. Been drinking Homemade broth and sugar free jello.. I'll definitely step up the water and walking.. thanks!!!
