I was sleeved on 2/19. I guess I have been very lucky in my first week. I have managed to get in all of my Vitamins, all of my Protein and fluids. I am down 11 pounds since surgery as of this morning. I am definitely ready to move on to my next stage of eating. My pain was controlled with pain medication early on. Yesterday I only took a pain pill before bed. I can now sleep on my sides. The worst for me is my skin on my stomach. Due to the dry heat in my house, I am itching terribly. Have called the Dr to see if I can use any lotion.
For everyone having issues, hang in there! Get your protein and fluids in if at all possible. I am using Pure Protein powder (with Water only) and Premier shakes.
