I had my surgery on the 11th. I feel pretty good. I was actually surprised at how minimal over all the pain really was. Don't get me wrong the first 2 days are not one you write home to mom about! It was all gas pains....But over all it has not been excruciating! I did not have any nausea, my incision pain is very minimal. Itching. My battle is craving food in the last 3 days. I advance to full liquids tomorrow for a week and then purée for 4 weeks. It amazes me the difference in diet for each Dr.

Over all I'm very happy and ready for the next chapter in our lives!!!

I haven't weighed yet I got to post-op appt in morning!

July 11 was my date. Until today I felt fine. No nausea and very little pain. Doing well with the Protein bullets. I started Protein Shakes today and they just taste weird so I went back to the bullets. I feel like I need to eat some real food, not hungry, just weak. Not until day 15 can I have "half a egg"a day and not until day 21 can I start yogurt, Soup, etc! I'm going to call the doctor tomorrow and ask about moving up the timeline. There is no way I can go back to work feeling so weak.

I was the 11th. Down 25 incl pre op. gas is getting better. Have occasional cramps feeling. I was given ok for full liquids a few days ago because I was so weak. Then added yogurt yesterday. Today I ate 1.5!greek yogurts. About 8'oz all day. Haha. I'm sooooo looking forward to next stage.

I was sleeved on the 11th. I just got upgraded to soft foods. I had a meatball. I smashed it and chewed it for 30 minutes. It was all good.

I was sleeved on the 11th having cramping. I am on soft foods now but not ready for that level. Think i am sticking w the puree stage for another week

7/11 also and I am moving to Full liquids today...no pain luckily. My saving grace have been the liquid Vitamins I am taking' date=' they are stronger than Centrum and gummies, they are keeping me nourished while on liquids. I am so thankful for this new chapter of my life! Down 18.5 lbs in 2 weeks![/quote']

A few questions for you. 1) Where did you purchase your liquid vitamins? 2) How much did they cost and lastly which ones did your purchase? Meaning did you get Calcium, Multivitamin etc in liquid form. Thanks for your feed back. I am preparing for Aug 17th-

I had my surgery on July 12th and was wondering if anyone else is getting their excercise in?? I am just trying to recover but I notice some people saying they walked miles??? I just don't have the energy for that!!

[KikiCC 83]

Well i was sleeved July 9th. I was immediately cleared for yogurt and lentils. I saw the doc late last week and he pretty much cleared me for "anything" as long is well chewed. Despite the "freedom", somehow, I am not interested in more food choices other than yogurt, lentil/bean Soup, Protein Shakes, cottage cheese, hummus, and eggs. I'm mainly listening to my body. When its ready, I am sure I'll expand my menu.

Same here. Haven't walked much. I got dizzy the first couple of times . I feel tired too. Again, I am just listening to my body. There is time to heal, time for exercising.

I'm feeling much better than when I posted on the 18th. Today was the first day that I was allowed to add half an egg. But I didn't have any eggs (poor planning). So I ate a small piece of cheddar that I had in my fridge. Nibbled at it and chewed very well. It went down well and stayed down. At dinner time, I had another piece, again with no problems. Tomorrow I will get eggs and not repeat the cheese experiment.
