  1. I've never really asked his reasoning but he stressed the need to take in Protein to help speed healing and the need to be active to decrease the risk of other post surgical complications. I find that at 7 days post op and am able to take in 64 oz of Water and 60g of pureed protein with no difficulty. I am able to walk for 30 minutes at a time without feeling tired or light headed. I do have some pain in my large incision site but thats all. I actually feel pretty normal at a week post op.
  2. I was sleeved on Monday (9/12) and went home from the hospital on Wednesday afternoon (9/14). I wanted to go home earlier but my surgeon felt it was important to make sure my pain was well controlled and I was well hydrated before I went home. I am feeling more normal today (post op day 6) eating pureed foods and drinking a lot of Water. My surgeon was pretty aggressive with staring pureed, I actually had my first meal for dinner the day after surgery. Energy is coming back and fewer pain meds needed throughout the day!
