I will be 3 weeks post-op tomorrow and I am LOVING my sleeve. True, there are some horror stories, but the surgery is very safe. Congratulations on your decision to take charge of your life and your health. This time tomorrow you may be thinking, OMG, WTH? BUT, it fades quickly. Good luck!

Im 17 days post op.. and it is well worth it. Its a bit hard in the beginning.. but then you adjust and it gets better.. I would do it again. I dont have that hunger I used to.. and my stomach is very small now and I cant eat much at all.. but thats ok.. Im good with that.. I am making good choices..and Im following everything that my doc and my nut. says.. also remember after surgery.. walk walk walk.. sip sip sip.. you will be fine.. best thing you will ever have done. best of luck.. let us know how you are doing.

I'm only 17 days post-op and I already know this may be the best decision I've ever made (that and my husband). I have not had one moment of regret. ZIP ZERO.... It gets kind of boring and tedious during these few weeks post-op because you are limited in choices but I know it's only temporary. I was totally relaxed the morning of my surgery. I can't explain it but I was just at peace. You will do great! Think happy thoughts.....

I'm just 2 wks post op...but I know this was the right choice! I have had no problems, I actually wanted to call my dr & make sure he actually did the surgery! I had a little nausea the first day, no pain...didn't even open my pain med! Other then the fact that I wasn't hungry....I felt fine! Now, the hunger is returning...I think it's in my head, cause I am full?

If I read this question the first week post op...I would not have replied for fear of making you more anxious. I won't lie...I was pretty weak and miserable the first week or two. Now, at week six post op, I feel completely normal. Eating mostly everything...in very small amts. I am down thirty pounds and I feel great. You will do just fine. Just realize that it is indeed major surgery and all that this entails. You will be happy in the end.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
