scaredoftheunknown 95 Posted September 15, 2012 Hello! I had my surgery on the 13 and I'm still in the hospital. I will be here until Sunday. if all goes well. My bladder has been asleep, they are hoping with the walking I've been doing will awaken it up. Hope everyone is doing good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peace36love 22 Posted September 16, 2012 Well, had my sleeve done on Sept 11th, with a hiatal hernia repair which I was not expecting. I could not get anything down for the first 2 days, lots of nausea and vomiting. then yesterday I started swallowing and getting the liquids down but then I have constant heartburn and frequent hiccups. but I feel much better. I hope to be going home tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeepermom 14 Posted September 16, 2012 Is anyone else dying for real food? I got some different kinds of Soups to strain just to get a different flavor. I haven't pushed my sleeve too much, so I'm not sure how much I can hold right now. So far, I've had some strained Soup and some greek yogurt. Anyone that's post-op, what did your first week of food after sleeve look like? 1 scaredoftheunknown reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suepeeps 230 Posted September 16, 2012 I found some squash Soup at Trader Joes that is SO yummy!! Also Tomato Soup is another fav. Throw in a little basil...mmmmm Greek yogurt is another fav right now. I tried adding some chicken Protein Powder to my creamy chicken soup but just couldn't do it after surg. I loved it before surg! Go figure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
