Who else got sleeved on the 28th of march?

[cbuck1212 17]

I also had mine on the 28th. I am not really having any trouble with the liquids and since I like the Premier Protein drink I am not having a problem with Protein. I wake up achy- like I'm healing - but nothing severe. I have only taken liquid Tylenol a couple of times since I've been home.

I had mine the 28th.. I am feeling better, I just got off Clear Liquids today so I'm happy to give up broth and jello! however, now that I added Protein shakes, It's been more difficult to get in my Water. my big incision hurts more than the others.also, I've lost about 10 lbs which is very encouraging!

I was sleeved on the 28th and the first 4 days were very rough! Some spasms and nausea. Day 5 I felt like "me" again, it was great. Started pureed stage yesterday and some refried Beans are amazing with some pureed guacamole. It's amazing how full you feel after only a few bites and I do realize that's the point of the surgery, but I never thought I'd feel full prior to surgery. Seems like your morning Vitamins and supplements are a meal in and of themselves, There's a lot of time consumed and planning to get everything in at this stage, but so far so good. I was fairly active prior to surgery walking constantly at work so I think I may have benefitted me well

. I do feel bad for those who are still struggling. I wish you a speedy recovery and hope you're well on your way soon.

I hear ya! I have 14 days all liquid then ANOTHER 7 days of non clear liquid, which includes yogurt. I think my doc may be crazy 21 days liquid!!!

It will take the body a little to bounce back after a major surgery for sure. Moving builds up stamina and staying hydrated is a must. One day at a time will get us there!

Nope, sticking like glue. I'm getting tired of them! I just want to rip them all off. But I wont. Not til I see my md.

I had glue instead of strips and it is coming off. Completely off on a couple of incisions but they are healed so it is okay. Still don't see my surgeon until next Tues and I am supposed to stay on full liquids (not even yogurt) until then. I will be slow glad to be able to add a bit more texture. I really feel like I am already ready but I won't take chances and will wait for the doc's okay. Feeling good overall though and down 25lbs since my first consult so happy about that!

I was sleeved on the 28th and I'm also still on clear/full liquids - my doc said 2 weeks liquids (first clear, then moved to full), 2 weeks mushy food then I can start on real whole food. I have no problem with that because I cant even get my 64 oz down! I found that coconut Water, and V8 vegetable juice are a godsend. One of the only things I can drink without consequence - well those and chicken broth. My plan is to start mushy food next week, things like blended cottage cheese, and blended Soups. I'm excited but nervous because even when I drink too fast, it hurts. My large incision is also a bit irritated but hoping this goes away soon. I was back to work Monday, and almost starting to feel like myself again, just a bit lightheaded at times due to lack of energy/protein, but I will get there in due time. Down 22 pounds as well! Glad most of you are doing well and most importantly happy! I sure am =)

I was sleeved on 28th too! Doc started me on puree yesterday for 3 weeks. It's been easier than I thought other then trying to make sure I have enough Protein in my new pureed foods. My stitches are healing and the glue is coming off. It's getting so much easier to drink larger sips and I so glad. It does take me 20 min to eat my 4oz. What a nice change. Good luck everyone

Actually I forgot to ask- did anyone poop yet? I haven't gone to the bathroom properly since pre op. I think I'm going to need to take a laxative soon so I don't get all backed up. Anyone else having this problem?
