Regret

I hate my sleeve, I'm 6 weeks out this coming Tuesday...drinking Water hurts the only thing I can drink is concentrate orange juice, iceblocks & sorbet none of these are sugar free. I can only eat two teaspoons of food... I'm over Soup blah blah. Just needed to rant. Oh and I want a beer so badly!!!

In my first week of surgery, it hurt when I drank Water. So I learned to mix my water with some low calorie G2 Gatorade and it was so much easier to get fluids down. Your tummy is so swollen right now and really needs a lot of fluids in. This is such a chore but well worth the effort.

I'm sorry you are having such a hard time. have you spoken with your doctor? Perhaps you have a stricture? In time it does get better. Oh and I wanted a beer so bad too and you know what? When I finally got that beer I drank a quarter of it and put it away. The carbonation made it intolerable. Now I have Lifewater that has taken the place of those beer cravings and they are so much better.

best of luck to you and I hope it gets better for you real fast.

I was the exact same way. I had a really hard time after surgery adjusting physically and mentally. I had many conversations with myself where I question my own sanity. I am almost 15 weeks out and I feel 110% better. As time goes on you'll continue to feel better. It may not feel like it now but it will. Just hang in there.

It does get better! I didn't feel good until 3 months out and now I have never felt better!!!!

I agree with the others, the first few months are agonizing but you'll get through it and feel like a million bucks soon! I will be a year out in just a couple months and feel amazing.
