Hey Sleevers, My surgery was 6-27 and everything went well. My post op bowel movement was my biggest concern. Then I went to stage II, and I think I went overboard. I was showing a steady loss up until the puree part, and i ate pureed chicken salad with lite mayo and I felt like I was going to bust. This was on 7-8, now I haven't had a bowel movement and I am staying the same weight for 2 days. HELP!!!! Stomach still doesn't feel right, today I wouldn't eat anything slightly solid at all. I am going to wait 1 more day before I call the NUT and ask her advice. My question is, has this happened to anybody here and if so how many days until I feel normal again? Thanx in advance for your help, you guys are a God send, I wouldn't know what to do without you. AnEMal

Hello sleevers, HW-293 SW-281 CW-275 I just have a quick question, how long after surgery does it generally take for your first bowel movement? I was sleeved on Friday 6/27. I started my post op diet including 4oz Protein shakes on my 1st full day home from the hospital. I feel great very sore (had a severe hiatal hernia repair also), so I'm experiencing painful burps. All in all I'm happy with my decision. Thanks AnEMal

Thank you all for the support, Had my 1st BM today, YAY!!!!

My surgery date is on June 27, 2014. What can I expect to fell for my first few days after surgery? I am excited and nervous at the same time.
