Checking in to see how everyone is feeling!!!

I am actually feeling pretty good Thank God. No pain just a little soreness I'm my stomach when I move a certain way. I started Protein Drinks yesterday and was able to get down almost 2 of them. I get the rumbles in my stomach but that's normal for me before surgery.

How are you??

[shan0520 241]

Feeling good. My one incision site is sore. But other than that I am up and about. Right now I am on Clear Liquids. Monday I can start adding Protein back into my diet.

[Jhacque7 18]

I feel really good as well. I had no pain, nausea or vomiting two days out. Today some soreness but nothing I can't handle. Walking helps keep everything moving and flowing so I don't get stiff.

I was sleeve 3/21! How is everyone doing?

[shan0520 241]

I was the 20th and doing awesome. No ill effects. And I'm out and walking almost everyday!

[ThickGirl5683 318]

I was sleeved the 20th, I feel pretty good. No major pain just soreness at the biggest incision site.. I'm able to tolerate almost eveey thong i have tried.. eggs, grits, ricotta bake, and refried beans... I'm not doing all that great with my Protein so I'm trying to get it through my foods. I've lost a total of 20lbs (including 3 day pre op liver shrinking diet)... How much have you all lost??

[ellykann 3]

@ThickGirl5683 and @shan0520 that's great! I'm still on full liquids! Moving to pureed diet on the 6th. I'm down 20 including preop diet!

[ThickGirl5683 318]

@Ellykann I was moved to the puree stage on the 30th but I can't WAIT for the day when I can eat a salad.. I hope my weight continues to come off...

[shan0520 241]

We'll have to share what we are eating! pureed food sounds just so terrible to me haha.

[shan0520 241]

Ellykann it sounds terrible too, but I am ready for a new taste. In over broth and shakes lol.
I have been cookingfor my family and putting small containers in the freezer to use. So far I have chicken with a little taco seasoning, roast beef and gravy, and pork with gravy.
