2 weeks post op...pretty bad sharp cramp like pain on side where drain was, the stomach side. Started a few days ago & no relief yet...i walk & take gasx strips. Hurts when I take deep breath or yawn so I dont or try not to. Ugh.

Hey everyone! I am now 15 days post op. Everything is going great with me! Im still not getting in all the Protein but that's my new goal for this week! Im doing "Ok" getting in Water. Not quite as much as I need but close. Starting working out yesterday (brisk uphill walk, was sweating bad and couldn't breathe after quarter of a mile, so I stopped but I know each day will get easier and I will be able to go further in a shorter time). I've lost 16 pounds as of yesterday, that's more than a pound a day :) I hope since im losing kind of slowly I wont hit that 3 week stall this week, esp since im going to up my protein and my workouts.

A note to sleeves who haven't found out yet...when they say eat slow they mean eat SLOOOOW. I had some chicken for lunch, half a grilled finger. It went down fine w no probs. I decided to eat some more for supper but evidently I ate too fast. Had TERRIBLE pains in my chest and about 15 mins later threw up some white froth. Known as "frothing" or "sliming". It was gross and painful. So please, eat slower than slow and it can be avoided.

You are able to eat food food already at 15 days po? Wow...i still have until Sunday on full liquids then start pureed for a few weeks then soft. I know all of our post op instructions are different but wow. Becareful! I'm so afraid of popping a staple/stitch & ending up in the hospital that when its finally time to eat normal again I may not. Congrats on ur great loss so far!
