Hi! I'm Paula, a 44 year old mom of 3 teenagers. I had surgery on Tuesday, May 20, 2014. I decided to have weight loss surgery after being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I also have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and sleep apnea. I found this board in hopes of getting feed back from others that have had the gastric sleeve. I'm on day 5 post surgery and I'm not drinking as much as I think I should. I drink as much as I can, but I feel full all of the time. For example, yesterday I had 10 ounces of liquid for the entire day. On Friday, I went to the ER in lots of pain and was dehydrated. I don't want to get dehydrated again.
