  1. Today was my 15th day post op. Saw my surgeon this morning and he said everything looked fine and to go ahead and start my "pureed diet." Well, this am, I tried a loosely scrambled egg and was able to eat about half with no issues. All day I had my liquid diet such as no sugar added juice, strained lentil Soup, Water, etc. For dinner, I had about 3 oz. of black bean soup from Trader Joe's with about 2 0z of cottage cheese, which didn't fill me up, so I had 4 oz. of tomato juice. I was still hungry so I had a full stick of string cheese and had no difficulty holding it down. I guess, i still feel hungry!! Now I am worried if my sleeve is going to work for me! I am not sure if this is normal. What do you guys say?

    Thanks for all the wonderful suggestions, guys! I guess, patience is the key to the game! Heather, just noticed that you and I got sleeved one day apart(mine was the 3rd). seems like you're doing well!
  4. Sleeved on 8/3 and had some issues with not being able to meet my recommended fluid intake the first 4 days (now resolved). Last 3 days I have been SUPER HUNGRY!!! Still on full liquids for one more week. I just had 3oz of canned tomato soup with 2 crackers in it and polished it off in 5 minutes and still hungry! Is this normal, guys???
  5. I've been taking Omeprazole since the morning after surgery.
  6. Not sure of the difference between physical and head hunger! I just know is that I didn't get the "soft burp" most people talk about or any other discomfort. I guess I'm glad I only had 3oz pre measured into my bowl or I'd have kept going!
  7. Hello all, I have been a lurker here since before my surgery. I had the VSG on Wednesday the 3rd. My first day post op(yesterday) I had a lot of difficulty even keeping down water. Today is my 2nd day post op and I was discharged from the hospital this morning. All day I have only been able to take in 4-5 of the 1-oz med cups of water and homemade clear chicken soup (strained). I do not feel like I have any energy at all. Is this normal?
  8. I am so worried because I feel I might get dehydrated this way. 15 oz of fluids are not really anything.... What have I done to myself? Does this get better?
  9. Thanks for all the replies! I have thus far managed to squeeze down approx. 15 oz of fluid today. Hopefully tomorrow will be better!
