I feel good I'm still on clear liquids with the exception of my protein shake and the few spoons of buttermilk squash soup I had that actually gave me life. I asked to move on to the next phase but was told no and that I must stay on clear liquids until day 10???? besides that I'm doing great. -

Hi everyone, My first post op appointment is today, even though I had my surgery on Tuesday my surgeon meets with patients on Mondays and preform surgeries on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday (he's very busy). I weighted myself yesterday and was down 5 so far????. I needed something savory yesterday and I had a few spoons of butternut squash Soup and it tasted like fall. It was what I needed.???? Have any of you tried unjury Protein powder? If so what flavor? My incisions are itchy too. ????My surgeon use some kind of tape that will fall off on its own but the belly button incision is bothering me because my stomach folds over a tad in that area and creates moisture ????so I'll get him to take a look today. I currently have a cotton ball there hoping that helps eliminate some moisture. -

How are my fellow October 14th sleevers doing?
lovelytrl replied to Angie413's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi all, I am doing great so far today is my first day in which I feel like myself. I was able to get down 52 ounces of liquid it was like my body was craving water, lol. I also feel like I can go on to purée foods, at least my mind thinks I can. We're in this for the long haul. Congrats to everyone. -

I decided to listen to my sleeve and not do the 15 minute rule. By doing that I managed to get down 52 ounces of water. Today is the first day that I actually felt like myself. I'm full of energy and I'm not dizzy or faint. I call my sleeve Amanda because she can be demanding at times! I have my first post op appointment tomorrow and I'm hoping I can advance to purée food only if Amanda can handle it. Has anyone else named their sleeve? -

I know what your are feeling. It's like my body need to be readjusted and it just want to be still. Head hunger is killing me softly I really could use some oatmeal right now or at least my mind says I could. How are you liking the clear liquids? Jello has become my best friend. -

Hey yall!!! I was sleeved today around 9:30 but I don't remember anything after I received my feel good meds. Not in any pain as of now. Got up and walked once so far but I'm about to get up again. I can't believe it's done, I'm still in shock! Will catch up a little later after I read the post above. Congrats to all current and future sleevers ???? -

Did you use sick time or short term disability?
lovelytrl replied to Kathy812's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm going under FMLA it takes from my sick but the time I take will not be used against me. I decided to take a month off from work. I can't wait! -
