Hi guys! It's almost been a week! I'm doing great, keeping all my liquids down, and meeting my liquid and Protein goals. However, it feels like it takes me all day to do it! Ugh. I'm so over drinking, I can't wait to finally chew some food, lol. How's everyone doing? Any issues? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

At least 70 grams. I aim for 80-90 a day. Sent from my LGLS990 using the BariatricPal App I'm at 90 grams a day. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Actually fish & tuna is part of the pureed stage for me. Sent from my LGMS631 using the BariatricPal App For me also. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Oh ok. Well we have a week. Thats pretty close lol Sent from my LGMS631 using the BariatricPal App The thought of puréed fish cracks me up, lol! I can't wait for some baked salmon! :-) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Wow!!! There is no way I could have gone home the same day! I've never heard of same day gastric sleeve surgery. Good for you! Wishing you the very best! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I've been thinking of seafood, as well! Time is flying! We're already a week post-op! Puréed/soft food, seafood time will be here before we know it! :-) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yes. I hate the chewables, yuck! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I actually gained 7 lbs because of swelling and IV fluids. I was so annoyed, but it's been coming off daily. Don't get discouraged, we're gonna rock this!!! Going into this surgery, we all knew it would be very difficult, but I have no doubts that we can accomplish our weight loss goals! Good luck with everything! Reach out if you need to! :-) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you! I'm wishing you the very best! :-) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I can't wait to try scrambled eggs! You really need to push yourself to meet your water and protein goals. For the simple fact that you don't want to run into any dehydration issues, I've heard horror stories about that. That's what keeps me sipping all day, I'm totally scared of dehydration. Good luck :-) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

When does your pureed/soft food phase begin?In another week! :-( Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I got sleeved on 4/18, I was released on 4/19. I took 2 1/2 weeks off work. I'm feeling great so far. Listen to your body as far as returning to work. My surgeon suggested 2 weeks off work, (I have a desk job.) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How soon did you guys remove your bandages? I removed mine today, (2 days post sleeve surgery) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm definitely leaving the sterile strips alone. I just removed the bandages that were covering them. I showered and the bandages got wet. I didn't want to breed bacteria on my incisions. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I was told 2 days. I just wanted to see if other folks had similar time frame. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Ok. I have sterile strips under my bandages. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I got sleeved yesterday as well, four incisions. How are you feeling? I had horrible indigestion in which I had to burp up, it was bad. Other than that I would've been in a very minimal amount of pain. Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App I'm feeling a little sore. Very little burping. Getting in and out of bed is a little hard, other than that, I'm ok. I'm wishing you a speedy recovery, and much success on this incredible journey! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I got sleeved yesterday and I have about 6 incisions. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How much time did everyone take off from work post op? I'm hoping to return to work within 2 weeks of my surgery, I hope that gives me enough time to heal. I drive approximately 40 minutes to and from work each day. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you much!!!! I'm doing well now!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi everyone! Surgery went very well! Yesterday, was a rough day, but that's expected immediately after surgery. I'm up walking and I'm able to keep my liquids down. I feel so much better today! Thank you all for your well wishes! For anyone who thinks bariatric surgery is taking the easy way out, they're sadly mistaken! They've never walked in our shoes! Wishing everyone on this journey the very best! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm so nervous, but exited to begin this new journey!!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you for your responses! Wishing you all the success in the world! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you!!! Just a few more hours to go! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
