I had my sleeve August 18th 2014. I have not drank any alcohol since August the 9th over 4 months. I am wanting to drink but I am afraid for a few reasons. I am afraid I will gain weight, afraid I will get sick or dehydrated, but the weight gain is my biggest worry I have come to far to fail now. Any sleevers that drink ???

I have 58 pounds gone

I never told mine but guess what they all knew... Small town gossip

Had my surgery 3 weeks ago today have lost 13 pounds. That's approximately 4 pounds a week . What is wrong with me why do others lose more ? I'm on full fluids 6-800 calories per day so discouraged

Thanks for the support thank god for this group !!

That's their rules for healing I guess . Strange cause lots of people seem to eat a lot earlier

How long do most people have to be on full fluids post op before going to purée. I have to do 4 weeks full fluids and it sucks

Post op 2 weeks and four days. I had 11 pounds gone but some how Gained 2 pounds today. What the hell I am still in full fluids and have April 600 calories a day what is wrong with me ??? So discouraged

21 pounds in two weeks ??? Holy smokes I'm almost at three and only got like 12 gone.

Well today is two weeks post I have lost 11 pounds since surgery. Have to say it's been hard, first week was hell second was better but I'm still really weak and having bowel problems alternating between constipation and the other. Still can't get much down 600-700 calories per day most of that from protein shakes. Just tried runny oatmeal keeps coming up in my throat. Oh my. This is not the easy way out !!!!

As my sleeve August 18 th. Wow never dreamt it would be this hard post op day 8 still can't get more then 3-400 calories in per day feeling weak and irritable. Everything taste like crap. I regret this right now I hope this changes. Yes I have lost 9 pounds since surgery but who wouldn't starving themselves. Not the easy way out by no means!!! This is a daily mental and physical struggle. Not for the weak of heart. I am a strong women and fought and won many battles but this is kicking my ass big time !!

Feeling a bit better today. Been having loose bowel movements though. I'm not losing weight either and am taking in 400-600 calories per day. Oh my still having a hard time finding the positives in this but maybe one day it will all come together. I have found though I feel best after going for a walk. Sitting around does not help at all

Thanks so much guys !!!

Post op day 9 still sucks still having regrets, hungry but can only eat liquid, dying for a glass of wine . Why the hell did I do this ??????

Thanks everyone for the support!! I had a long nap and took a walk I feel a bit better managed to get in some cream if mushroom soup and yogurt. I'm sure it will get better and it has gotten better since day one. I'm so glad I have great people to vent to when I feel down
