I am one week postop from my sleeve. I’m doing great and have no real issues. Went for my postop check today and have lost 14 lbs in a week. Very excited

So very pleased for you, well done! This is a fantastic surgery result, exactly how you wish it to be for everyone. I'm going in expecting a not-too-uncomfortable experience, but well informed and prepared to manage anything that isn't. I hope you'll post further updates here, and that you continue with good health and great results!

I had the shakes for the most part the first 2 weeks, sugar free popsicles, sugar free Jello, sugar free pudding, and plain greek yogurt. The second stage I hate part-skim ricotta cheese. I tried cottage cheese but my stomach rejected it with one small bite. Greek yogurt (lite&fit by Dannon) 80cal., pudding, outshine fruit bars, applesauce, blended vegetable soup/minestrone (took out the pasta), pureed pinto Beans. I still had to have 2 shakes a day in week 3 and 4.
I just started on soft foods on Thursday. Tried plain scrambled eggs. I felt like I ate cement. I talked to 2 people who work at the clinic and had the sleeve and they suggested scrambling the eggs with ricotta cheese and using mashed up avocado and salsa. So I'm going to try that tomorrow. They said the stomach wants the texture of smooth foods. She thinks adding the avocado with trick my stomach with the texture and the cheese will add moisture. I get filled up really quickly. But I'm not having many problems.

That's a nice variety of foods. I'm so happy you're doing so well and not having any problems I hope to be the same way. 😁

I'm doing great. 25 lbs lost my clothes are loose and I actually feel that I am actually going to loose my excess weight. I'm on soft foods and I am tolerating almost everything. This coming Thursday is my 6 week post-op. I am excited. I am glad your not nervous. You are going to do great. Just remember everything you experience will pass eventually. I will be thinking of you on Monday. Start walking a soon as your able to do.

Congratulations that's wonderful. I can wait to join you in dropping pounds. I've lost 10 lbs in the last 10 days from this preop stuff. I heard about the walking. The nurse in the surgeon office said they will have me up and about in the hospital. Thank you for the well wishes😁

Hi everyone I’m a September sleever Uk 28/09/19

i was sick and had to do an extra night in hospital (esg sleeve) but doing well now just over two weeks out, no more pain wahooooo.

im down 18lb total which I’m happy with, having a stall at the moment but have had a word with myself, put my scales always in the cupboard and will stop weighing daily as it’s not helping my mental state!

I just seem to set unrealistic targets for myself constantly with weighing and my post op follow ups they keep telling me to fortnightly weigh and stop making myself miserable as it can alter my mood daily! So that’s what I’ll try to do.

hope everyone feeling good I’m just about feeling ready to exercise again and have my energy back now

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
