Anyone have the sleeve surgery around may 7 2014?

<p>Don't be worried. Follow the doctor's orders and you will be fine. Everyone looses at their own pace. Get out there and walk. I downloaded the app Map My Steps to my phone and carry it with me. Every day I try to walk further and a little faster. Some days I don't achieve my goal but I keep trying. And so should you! Have confidence in yourself. The weight WILL come off!!! Always remember this sleeve is a tool not a miracle cure. You are going to do this!!!!</p>

Thank you! I walk daily though. But the my step app sounds cool! I will definitely be checking that out!!

I also use the app MOVE....tracks every step during the day. I use Map My Walk when I take my walks.

I was sleeved on May 12th and going to surgeon this afternoon for 1st appt. they had to put drain in me so hopefully today it will be removed & hope the scale shows good results... Doing fantastic!!! I was walking around the track on day 5... I'm hoping after today I can start mushy foods or Soups.,,,

I'm worried that I won't loose big like a lot of people do...

Are you exercising?

[Divadee35 47]

Ok, we have to strategize together,I just got on my scale and I gained 1 pound! I guess I need to stick to my schedule for eating, because something has to give! No regrets..let's all push forward! If anyone needs a copy of my diet schedule,, let me know! It's on

Hi, I was sleeved May 6th. I'm on the puréed stage and been doing fine down 14lbs since surgery. Has been really difficult getting all my Protein in.

Hello, I've also had vsg May 7. I have lost 17 pounds since surgery. I am also having trouble getting Protein in. Anybody else feel tired and weak.

Gee, I am a tad jealous. 1 week after surgery, my doctor graduated me from Clear Liquids to full liquids for a month. I won't get pureed foods until June 9th!!!!

Yes, I'm so weak and tired! I'm baking me some fish and I'm going to mush it, I have been exercising everyday, but I'm burning calories I haven't ate!

I walk for half hour a day but Jesus! If I wanted to exercise every day to loose weight AND eat 800 calories I would not have had surgery!

Hello Divadee, my surgeons diet plan has me on clear liquid diet the first 2 weeks I'm just starting full liquids for the next 2 weeks. How am I ever gonna get enough energy. I should add that 10 yrs ago I also had a kidney transplant but kidneys are fine through this surgery. Just hoping to get more energy to exercise. I love walking, was doing 4 miles pre opt. Can't wait to start again.

Good luck to you Ms. Melody!

I was sleeved May 6. I have only lost 1lb in the last 4 or 5 days. Must be the time when bodies take a break from the initial loss. I'm hoping when the scale moves again it will show a big loss or move quickly, Seems hard to believe with eating so little and exercising all these days that there isn't some lost weight waiting to happen! I start pureed tomorrow- looking forward to that. What kind of pureed things have people been trying? How much are you able to eat at one time?

Hi all! I was sleeved last week, May 14th. On all liquids, not able to get all my Protein in, but trying. Liquids at all are slow going! Feel drained, weak, and just generally yucky! Trying to get more fluids in so that I don't get dehydrated. Ugh! I know this will get better, but I am sick of feeling so blah! I have a house and 5 kids to take care of! This better pass quick! They're getting tired of having a sick mom!
