I myself am 10 days out and my drinking liquids has gotten faster as well. But I have to force myself. I get full fast!! And stay that way. Good luck on the journey.
-
I was having that same thing early on. I took antacids and it went away. Likely gas. Hope ya feel better.
-
Likewise. I had my surgery on the 10th also and I feel I’m doing well. Have lost 17lbs, and I get all my liquids in. I stopped pain med on Wed evening and haven’t had any issues. Have little pains here and there but I’ve been going out and about since Thu. And like you I’m thinking, what’s going to go wrong. Good luck with it all!!

I hear you!! I’m on day 6th. Got home the same day you had your surgery, I still have crazy gurgling and gas. I’ve been moving around a lot and that helps. I came of the meds on the 13th as all i wanted to do was sleep. I walked a mile today and gas levels are certainly better with walking. Good luck and speedy recovery.

Yay!! I move on to it tomorrow. The clear got rough during last days. Enjoy those protein drinks. I’ll have one first thing tomorrow morning!!

Going into a store without a big and tall section and finding something that will fit!! -
My doc says thinned mashed potatoes are fine for full liquid. But says it need to pretty much slide off the spoon. Thin with Broth.

I’ve been making sure I do at least 8oz an hour. I’m 5 days post op and have been doing that for about the last 3 days. Helps get things moving. I’ll sip the whole hour.

When do you start losing weight?
Chuck Clasik replied to Sarahulu's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I had my surgery on the 10th. Came home yesterday and immediately stepped on the scale. Was 16lbs heavier then when I went in. Since leaving hospital I’ve been hitting the bathroom about twice an hour. I guess the iv fluids coming out. Weighed this morning and was down below when I went in for surgery. I also make it a point to walk for 5-10 min an hour to heal with soreness. Makes a huge difference. Good luck. -
Passing gas never felt so good!! 2 days post op and I was partially miserable and bloated this morning. Once the gas started rolling and released, feels like a new me. Still sore, but much more tolerable.
-
Hoping you’re feeling better. I had mine on the 10th as well. I suspect I’ll be going home some time today. I’m now walking every 30min. It helps. Make sure you’re walking to anyone that follows.
-
I was too. But it’s bearable. I live down I’m Charlottesville, VA. The staff truly makes a difference.
-
@Denise, I’m feeling pretty good. A tiny bit sore. But not too bad. Was my first surgery ever, so it was more scared of the surgery than anything. But it went well.
-
Seems cooler liquids causes spasms. Warmer calms it down. Recovery not as bad as I thought. Staff has really made this a breeze.

Dec 10th! First thing in the morning.

47, I’m having it done in the morning. Looking forward to it and not looking forward to recovery. But! I’m ready.
