Glad you are recovering so well. I had an easy recovery too, but a bit of a word of warning - easy does it! I was feeling awesome about a week out until I overdid it one day with shopping, decorating, baking, etc. and woke up with stomach pain at 3:00 in the a.m....thought I had a leak and was freaking out. I realized that I just did too much that day and needed to give myself a break, so the next day was bedrest and I was feeling better. Just don't want you do too much too soon. :)

How about eating. I tried some real Soup (not broth) and I am miserable. I was sleeved in the 10th.

I had a couple of bites and stopped. I go to mushy stuff on Saturday and I am a bit skeptical about doing so. What are you eating. Still full liquids?

Well during the clear liquid stage I was having really bad heartburn and as soon as I went to full liquids I made a nice soup very well blended and I haven't had heartburn since....just make sure there are no really solid parts of that soup.....I guess u can say the soup actually helped me...

It feels great to hear that. i could imagine your cloud 9 status. However you got to stick to low calorie diet now and follow a healthy living through nice work out each day.

Good luck

Your absolutely right....today I joined the gym and began light working out....I'm still in the full liquid stage so nothing too solid as of yet but I'm looking forward to embracing my new low calorie life style.. Thanks for your encouragement:)

Be very careful. I was sleeved 12-10 and I felt soooo good that I finished up my shopping. Baking and all the Christmas things that have to be done this time of year AND bam!!! It came up to bite me in the butt. One of my incisions is extremely painful. I have to lay low and wear this waist band around my midsection. Feels like someone is stabbing me in the gut. So this girls is laying down and taking it easy for a few more days.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
