Hi everyone - I had a successful Gastric Sleeve surgery yesterday. I got discharged today before noon. You definitely have the pain of gas from your intestines and pain from the gas from the operation. Lots of walking helps get it moving. I feel hunger pains as if Im still hungry. Doc says its mental... however I feel it and to me that is physical. Warm and hot liquids feel much better to drink than cold fluids right now. The cold fluids tend to cause cramping or spasms. Those hurt and are unbearable. Other than that... Im taking it slow and been hitting my 64 Fluid oz. I love chicken broth. Ill keep posting as I get stronger.

Congratulations. Everything you're saying sounds normal. I'm glad you're feeling well. Keep us all posted.

You may change your mind on chicken broth after a while

@Rose1up! i didn't get hungry in the beginning and i was, like you, actually happy to be on liquids for the beginning cuz i couldn't see anything solid going anywhere and i wasn't hungry at all. but everyone is different. and i agree with you when the doctor says it's mental and you're like, dude, i can FEEL it. maybe you can. i'm hungry all the time now tho i have no appetite i do feel the hunger.

just trust your body. get your Protein and fluids and be patient and calm.
