Anyone sleeved on 2/8/16 want to stay connected?

Just wanted to see if anyone who had their surgery this week would want to help motivate and encourage one another.

Hi Jeanette, I had my surgery on the 9th and it has been an interesting ride thus far. Today is the first day that I am able to get liquids down with comfort. How are things on your end?

[Jeanette1246 34]

I am so sorry for not responding! I didn't even realize I had a message. How are you doing? Are you feeling ok? Are you doing well with your new diet? Hope all is well and looking forward to hearing how you are doing!!

Everything is great. The only problems I have had is battling occasional Constipation and gas. How are you doing?

I am still having a hard time with eating. It's getting much better, but often feels like things are getting stuck. Constipation sometimes, no real gas usually. Down 40 pounds so far. The last two weeks the number on the scale have stayed the same, but my clothes are really starting to fit differently!

The "stuck" feeling probably means you are full. It is a different feeling from before for me.

Probably. What are you doing for exercise? I'm getting at least 10,000 steps in. Trying to be on the elliptical at least 15 minutes daily. I have three little boys, so just trying stay active and focus on my Water and food intake. I just started keeping a food/water/ Vitamin diary.

I go to the gym about 3 times per week and try to burn 300-500 calories. On average I am on the bike or elliptical for 30-40 minutes.
