Thanks! I'm feeling fine-just mad at him and myself.

I was sleeved on July 10th and I am down 10 or 11 pounds. I feel like it should be more as I essentially am not eating-I probably average 300-500 calories as I am having a hard time getting protein shakes down due to fullness. I have been walking everyday sometimes 3-4 miles. Am I doing something wrong?

Anyone have side aches? I'm postop day 9 and seem to get one on my right side frequently. I also drank quite a bit of water today since it was hot and we went hiking, so dehydration is think is out...in fact I've been overly "full" today and haven't been able to get more than 1.5 shakes in cause I've just wanted water-normal?

I am post op one week today! I weighed myself and I'm down 6 pounds-is this a good amount? I'm feeling pretty good, still trying to figure out if I'm hungry or full. I am doing about 2 protein shakes and trying to fit in all my water in between. Yesterday I was able to get a few spoonfuls of broth down and a SF jello. I've been walking everyday however I over did it on Wednesday and went 3 miles and hurt after so no walk yesterday...

So I am postop day 5 and still trying to figure things out! Overall I feel amazing. Today is the first day I feel hungry, but is it hunger? I had a 8 oz protein shake over 1 hour for breakfast then another 8 oz protein shake between 2 and 5. My stomach feels like maybe I am hungry, but I also know I have not drank enough water today. I am very nervous to over "eat" with shakes and according to my NUT I should be having 5 shakes a day eventually. I also have noticed that I can take bigger sips today-is this normal? Can I really screw things up for losing weight on a liquid diet? Thanks in advance for your words of wisdom!

So I am postop day 4, I do not feel hungry at all. I had a SF carnation instant breakfast with 1/2 scoop protein powder and 8 oz of milk for breakfast which took me 1.5 hours to drink, then I had about 24 oz of water throughout the day and some SF jello then another carnation drink over 1.5 hours for dinner. I don't know if I am ever feeling full I'm just drinking sips cause I hiccup or burp every sip which is still slightly uncomfortable as I'm sure I'm still swollen. I went for 2 walks today and took a nap. Does this sound about right for how many days out I am?? I am so worried to screw things up!

Hi everyone I feel like I have so many questions all the time:(. I had my sleeve done two days ago and started a protein shake yesterday. I've had one so far today and the 8 oz drink took me 2 hours. I know the dr says to wait the 30 mins before or after but how am I not going to get dehydrated if I am only doing sips? I worry that if I drink to much my sleeve will stretch and I'll gain wait. However I've only consumed about 200 calories today cause of fatigue and worry. Any one have some words of wisdom??

I'm postop day one and the kitchen brought me a Glucerna for a meal. It came in an 8oz can and it took me 3 hours to drink it-is this about right? I'm not really sure how much to drink with the protein shakes...

So I'm post-op day one and I just dropped my phone and bent over to pick it up which was quite painful-do you think this could have hurt anything inside?

So I'm scheduled for surgery tomorrow and we went out for lunch and my favorite place didn't have my French onion soup that I usually get just the broth. They had a creamy rice and I tried hard to not get any chunks. With that said my family got pizza and not even thinking I took a big bite and then my husband said what are you doing as I swallowed...will I be ok tomorrow if I didn't do my full liquid diet today?!? Help!

Thanks everyone. I'm super nervous as the time ticks closer:(
