You are lucky to be on puréed foods already. I had my sleeve done Tuesday and was put on liquids for 21 days post op. I want some texture so bad! -

I was wondering if anyone uses my fitness pal? I had the gastric sleeve on Tuesday so I'm 4 days post op. I would like to have some people to follow so I can have good examples of what others are doing. I'm still on liquids now, but would like some support for the future.

The first time was a band to sleeve revision and I had so much scar tissue that I don't think the dr was able to remove as much as my stomach. I am using the same doctor and he is going back in to resleeve and do the fundus.

How has it been for you? I get re-sleeved on Monday.

Has anyone had the gastric sleeve a 2nd time? I go on April 25th to be re-sleeved and have what is called a fundectomy. I am just wondering if anyone else has done this so I know what to expect. From what I hear from the doctor it should be just like the first time I had the sleeve surgery. For those curious, I had the surgery almost three years ago and was self-pay. The process went extremely fast and before I knew it, I was having the surgery. (The whole process took like 4 weeks since I was self pay.) Turns out I wasn't prepared for the surgery and didn't do very well long term. I didn't utilize the nutritionist or therapy and I am back to where I was pre-surgery. This time around I have done all the necessary steps to prepare myself for this life change and fell that I am ready to do this again and be successful! Just wondering if anyone else has has had this done? Please no negative comments!
