Sleeved on 9th November

[Sleeved11/13/15 9]

I was sleeved on the 13th. I have a follow-up appointment with my surgeon Monday. It has been a very rough five days but today I am already feeling so much better! I am having a lot of trouble getting the Protein Shakes down and keeping them down. I don't do well with chalky type drinks. My gag reflex is awful with this type of texture. I switched over to ibuprofen yesterday and got off of the pain pills. I really think this is a big part of me feeling better. Pain pills upset my stomach even without major surgery on it. My doctor allows a list of about 8 foods this early - I tried cottage cheese and very wet shredded chicken yesterday and it went down well and didn't hurt. I had 1/2 cup of cottage cheese and about 4 bites of shredded chicken. I know it has only been six days but I haven't lost any weight yet. Anyone know possible reasons why? Just trying to connect with others who have recently been sleeved. If I can answer any questions about my experience let me know.

I was sleeved the 9th. I'm feeling pretty good so happy I'm getting to eat a little. I'm down 16 lbs so far. I'm not really doing the puréed food. So if I have chicken I cut it very tiny and chew it real good. Everything seems to be going down.

Sleeved 11/9. Feeling so much better. I felt like I turned a corner this Tuesday. Pretty jealous of eating chicken. I get to puree food next week and then REAL food the next. Excited to be on this journey and glad there are others with me!

I am starting to hate Protein Shakes soooo much! I mean a lot of people have to drink only that ( a few other things like broth, ect) for a month. Uhhhh, the Protein shakes make me nauseous. 4 more days!!!!

Yes my doctor does clear for 1 week, full liquids for 1 week, puréed food for 1 week, then solids. I am feeling better every day!!

I'm on full liquids for 17 days then 10 days puréed. I was told to start my Vitamins after 1 month maybe that's why I feel so tired and weak.
