Just been sleeved



Recommended Posts

Thanks, I know i sound crazy. I am worried about stretching my sleeve because I can eat and drink.....is that possible at all sipping fluids and eating 1/4 cup portions.

It doesn't sound crazy mamab...I would not worry so much as to be cautious since your only a week or so out you want to be sure your staple line is thoroughly healed before eating too much or too soon. I guess there are some exceptions, since I could hardly get in 2 oz. of anything that early out. I was on full liquids after about a week to 10 days out and then on "mushie" foods for another 7-10 days before I graduated to solid foods. What is most important is that you stay hydrated and try to keep the Protein count as high as you can. It sounds like your very aware and doing just fine though so keep it up!
