Not so much freaky as frightening since my health tanked so rapidly...but we are all on the way back together and that is the important thing!

Good for you! I love it when people can "let go and let God" and not agonize over every stall and every poop! Congratulations on your realistic expectations.... I think that is as much a part of this whole thing as the loss of lbs....

If your full without discomfort then it perfect for you.....listen to your body.....congratulations!

Can't since I'm 1 week post op and on full liquids ????

Well done! You will be back to normal before you know it! I'm one week out and sometimes I forget I had it done!

I was so proud of myself...for the first time since surgery a week ago I got in all my water....then I realized I haven't had any protein shakes! Lol! I'll get the hang of a balanced diet soon I'm sure

It looks so scary...even worse after going through the pill cutter. I haven't had my hypertension or cholesterol pill in a week!!

Boom! That's it! I am afraid it's gonna hurt or worse damage my fragile incisions...it's hard for me to take a pill or pills with a "sip"...

I was sleeved a week ago...my daughter and I were running around today and I thought to myself "we should go get some ice cream!" Then I realized what I was saying.....????

@@OKCPirate Hey my husband is from Oklahoma! I'm a Oklahoman too....Lawton/Duncan. But been in Georgia for 10 yrs and love it here. My husband however is a born and bred Sooner and swears we will return..if he does he will be alone????

I'm in rural Georgia and am literally walking circles in my house...feel like a dork! Where do you go to walk?

I've had diarrhea since my surgery on the 29th...my post op symptoms are the opposite of everybody's...I knew I was a freak????

Mall is waaaaaay to far away for a daily walk....I'm in the sticks! I do have room in front of the smart tv to get on YouTube though...I'll give that a try!!

I would think they would be healthier if you put them through the blender.....thoughts?

And desperately trying to get my meals organized and having a bad time...

Yep...5 days postop...

Good for you! proud of you! When was your surgery?

And feel lousy! Just a general malaise and yucky.....my incisions don't hurt at all and I have just minor twinging when I drink, but my back and neck etc feel like I had a car wreck...I am spending most my time in bed because I'm scared of falling over dog, kid toys etc cause I'm woozy....also thought I'd be constipated but have the opposite..... Anyone else feel like this? I really thought I'd feel better....

I have never been a fan of creamed soups...can anyone recommend some of the tastier ones?

Never thought about that....we have a Publix and a Whole Foods close..my husband even offered to go to some restaurants and get some soup....

No pain at all...just feel kinda yucky and woozy....have only taken 2 Tylenol for a sore neck....was sleeved 5 days ago...

I had my surgery date in my head since I started....then I got thrown off by the nutritionist when she cancelled on me and pushed me out two weeks. Due to a shutdown at work June 29th for 10 days I really need to get on the surgery schedule. I'm not getting any cooperation from my doctors office. I'm trying to push my last nutritionist visit back to June 24th which will be exactly 3 months from when I started. The office said my insurance company usually returns an approval within 48 hrs and it doesn't take "anytime at all" to get on the schedule after approval...their words not mine. I'm just soooo frustrated. I can start my liquid diet tomorrow if I have to....

Thanks miss Mac...plus I was just reading the post about hiatal hernias...i have one to be fixed during the sleeve...I also am going to suggest they go ahead and schedule me for a hernia until they have sleeve approval..may be worth a try
