kiwi63 22 Posted May 31, 2013 I was sleeved on the 28th in Tijuana. My 1 1/2 hour op turned into close to 4 hours. I had adhesions from a previous surgery and it took them hours to release them all. Felt pretty crappy Tuesday night but since then I've felt great!!! No issues with drinking anything. That first cup of tea yesterday was like the nectar of the gods. I had to be careful not to chug it. Lol. Drinking lots of Gatorade, sipping every few minutes. Walked 45 minutes to Walmart, uphill. I've had it easy I think. Poor hubby at home in Canada, on the other hand, says he aged 20 years while I was having my op. can't wait to get home tomorrow. ???? 1 Brenda0928 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Healthiernewme 81 Posted June 1, 2013 ...oh, and today is my first day on soft foods (although I did have some mashed potatoes the other night)...I know that everyone told me that I would definitely feel the restriction, but I just couldn't believe it (kind of like I didn't believe I wouldn't be hungry), but I just tried my first scrambled egg and what do ya know...full after very little. Yahoo!!!! Potatoes are a slider. Yes, I found this out too. No more potatoes for me for a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tinahall 27 Posted June 1, 2013 Guys.. I was sleeved on Wednesday and still bloated and with my tummy really big like a balloon... how long am I going to be like this? Also.. it's very difficult to know when I'm full and when I'm hungry... it seems that I'm always full and my stomach still aches =/ I'm trying milk today.. My stomach was swollen like that till day 6. Then went down. It's from the air and trauma from surgery. I know you feel full but make sure you get Water and Protein first of all.
