Don't worry, I'm about three weeks out. It does get better, but even now I still second guess myself and experience regret. I think it's normal, and even though it sucks, you'll get through it.

I have been taking liquid version I got from Amazon since 4 days from my surgery

I'm 12 days out from my surgery, still in full liquid phase, and understand what you are going through. I've definitely had moments of despair and regret, but we'll get through it. I had my surgery done through Kaiser, had to take a three month class, then follow it up with 2 months dealing with the doctor. One of the things I've found most helpful, even with all the information I was given, was going to a bariatric support group. Kaiser has one free to the public, and hopefully someone has something similar in your area. It's been a great source of information, advice, and encouragement. You get to talk to a lot of people who have been in your situation, and can offer different advice on getting through certain things. Don't give up yet. 3 days out I really was wondering what on earth I had gotten myself into. I'm 2 days away from my next phase and know that will make it so much easier. Stick with it, you didn't go through all this for nothing.

Any June 2018 Sleevers in Here?!

My wife ordered on of those, I tried it before my surgery and really liked it. Have you had any issues with it after surgery? They told me to avoid straws, and I didn't know if the sports bottle top was close enough to a straw to cause issues, so I've been avoiding it. -

Just found this site, I had my sleeve on the 13th. Was fine in the hospital, but the first 2 days home afterwards were rough. As soon as I got on the full liquid diet, it's been smooth sailing. Mostly just miss eating, but can start next Wednesday. Down 9.4 pounds since surgery.
