Well I had to go see the dr. today my back is just killing me. She gave me.muscle relaxors and.will take them tonight. I got weighed in and I've lost 10 lbs. I was sleeved one week today.

I think I might be eating to much. Funny and weird but can't tell when I'm full.

Has anyone experience this?

My surgery was also 1 week ago today. Today I have been wanting food so bad, I took one bite of chicken earlier and now drinking a kool aid pouch. I dont know what to do.

Yes I want food too. I smell the dinner my.husband is cooking for.him and my son and wish I could just take a bite. I've been eating/sucking on ad popsicles.

What does your food intake consist of?

I was sleeved on 9-14 so I'm 6 days post op and down 17 lbs since surgery LOL I have no idea how that is even possible and checked both scales 3 times LOL I'm doing full liquids and tolerating it fine, no nausea or anything.

Been off pain meds since the night of surgery and the only thing bothering me is all the burping and the itchy incisions LOL that's a small price to pay for my health! I go back to work Tuesday so I'm resting up and getting in my walking!

I chewed the chicken a lot and didn't have a problem with it. All week I've had protien shakes, yogurt and Popsicles, I don't like anything else. I've lost 7 pounds but I'm hungry and don't think I'm eating enough.

Glad to hear you are home and doing better. I've had a slow recovery too. It depresses me sometimes when I hear how good everyone else is doing. I think it might have to do with how big I am, more weight pulling on the incisions and my body in shock from the small amount of food.

When people talk about trader joes for post op stuff . What is it you get . If you could tell me . 5 days til my surgery (:

Hello everyone. I am post op 3 days now....the big surprise for me was all the burping I have been doing. Drinking my Water seems to make it worse....but my doc insists on 64oz daily. It has been hard to do as it feels so tight to swallow....takes me hour or more for one bottle of water. Have managed some Protein Soup yesterday....the center sells it. I am glad I found this board. A girl in support class mentioned it was fabulous for information and support.

It's crazy to me to hear people talk abut eating all these foods so early out. I'm not here to judge, I mean I'd be lying by saying I haven't been tempted, but you guys, we're all. In the stages where leaks are still possible. By eating things your doctor has not okayed you too, it is extremely dangerous. Not to mention you're probably not losing the weight you could be. I am down 25 pounds since the 7th! 2 weeks!! A total of 45 pounds, I'm not trying to brag or call anyone out, but I'm truth if u follow everything correctly, you'll get better results. Good luck everyone, be safe and hold off on trying things you aren't supposed to be. Focus on your Vitamins, Protein and water!!!
