Dreamingofhealth 223 Posted December 11, 2014 (edited) Please don't feel guilty after eating, you are doing the best you can at the moment. Just stay focused on staying hydrated and the rest will come. Are you still on full liquids? What kind of plan does your surgeon have you on?

surreal2014 1 Posted December 11, 2014 For me it has gotten easier and I'm mostly focused liquids first. Please don't feel guilty after eating, you are doing the best you can at the moment. Are you still on full liquids? yes am supposed to be on soft foods so I drink Soups and Protein Shakes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dreamingofhealth 223 Posted December 11, 2014 That's how I was last week. And honestly you just have to keep plugging away at it. The Soups I could eat almost a whole cup, but wouldn't go farther than that-even though I felt I could. Since starting puree today I get full crazy fast! It's a huge change. Just stay hydrated and eat as much Protein as your tummy will allow. It will get easier. Don't beat yourself up because you are doing great! My surgeon said hitting the Water targets was most important followed by protein and Vitamins. I'm sorry if that wasn't much help... Sheena :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ToccoraVSG 76 Posted December 15, 2014 I've spoken with medical staff which includes nurses. No one will answer my question regarding intercourse. When is it safe to resume?My paperwork says when you comfortable/ready you may resume. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

taniaceli 20 Posted December 15, 2014 Have you guys started exercising? I have spoken to a few other sleeve peers and one of the girls said she did 5 days post op. I waited about two weeks. As long as ur body feels like is fine. It should be fine. I did felt exhausted the next day but that was to be expected. Just don't do much of the effort. ????
