Not too bad here. I'm at four weeks so lots of cottage cheese, refried beans and laughing cow cheese for me. Tried a pureed fruit smoothie tonight and that was absolutely a no go for my stomach. Lesson learned! I can't wait for solid food!!!!

Thank you for this. This was very helpful for me. ❤️

I got the recipe from Skinnytaste, sorry I don't have it handy I just google it anytime I need the recipe lol Haha I do the same thing! Thank you!!

I'm the same way. I am 6 days post op. I was weighed the morning of surgery at 290.8, then three days post-op I was 298. Today I'm down to 293 so I've lost five pounds in a few days but overall I'm at a gain. Strange.. hopefully it ramps up soon.

Hi all, I am five days post-op and I have slight pain in my lower left chest/in my side. I have been doing the breathing exercises no problem and am just kind of sore otherwise but I'm wondering if anyone else has had that? I'm thinking it might be gas pain or maybe pain from surgery radiating. Let me know!! Thanks! Sent from my SM-N960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Did anyone experience sight chest/left side pain after surgery? I'm 5 days post op and have slight lower left chest pain or pain on my left side. I can do the breathing exercises no problem. I'm not sure if it's just pain from my stomach or normal? It's nothing super bad, just slightly concerned. Sent from my SM-N960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear you're having a rough go! Hopefully in the coming days you'll start to feel better and better. It is definitely a process! Healing hugs to you!!

Thank you! 🙂 The most I have seen is to give the gas pains a few days and it usually starts to pass. When I felt no gas pain (still swollen and kind of "full") I was SO excited. Haha

Awesome! Glad it's going well. That gas pain is horrendous at first but does definitely get better! I am 5 days post op and doing pretty well, mostly just sore and my tummy grumbles and gurgles a LOT. I am only on clear liquids until Monday but so far I haven't really felt hungry or thirsty. I can't tell if I am getting full or not but I'm slowly sipping all day. I get random pains after I drink sometimes but I think maybe I drink too fast or too much at once. Definitely a learning process!!

Omg that looks amazing! Do you have the recipe handy?? Sent from my SM-N960U using BariatricPal mobile app

I have one week of clear liquids, then one week of full liquids, then soft/pureed for one week, etc. I cannot even begin to describe how excited I am to eat cottage cheese. LOL Sent from my SM-N960U using BariatricPal mobile app

How did it go? How are you feeling? I'm 4 days post-op. Such a huge change!! Sent from my SM-N960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Sleeve buddies! I haven't been hungry at all but that could be fear of drinking too much at one time or something. Haha. But I am so work you there, feel like I got hit by a truck!! And I can't wait for this IV to come out.

Sleeved today. Pretty rough recovery for me. Had terrible gas pain for hours, got up and walked a bit. Didn't help much for me. As time has gone past i feel a little better but the pain is still pretty intense in my lungs. I'm almost constantly sleeping which I am fine with! Can't wait to drink something!

Thank you so much!!! Heading to the hospital in about two hours!! A little nervous but mostly just want to get it over with! Haha
