Uhhh so lucky on full liquids so soon! I'm still working on clear liquids and tomorrow is one week post op. going to doctors for a check up tomorrow and prayyyyyinggg she let's me on full liquids or puréed. ahhhh fingers crossed!yeah I'd love that. many friends and family know but TONS of people on facebook I don't really want knowing. let's try to figure out how to do it privately and I'm all in!I'm just a few days in front of you and I was sleeved on Friday. I can relate with everything you're saying and it will get easier each day. it's still hard but I haven't had the benefit of watching the scale go down yet but as soon as it does I know I'll be verrrrryyyy happyartsy- wish I was 2 weeks! lol my surgery was Friday the 11th... I believe the same day as you? I'm doing okay.. pretty sore and trying to figure out how to get all the liquids in. message me and we can talk more!hey everyone! just 4 days post op and wondering if I am getting in enough liquids. before leaving the hospital I was to drink 2 ounces every half hour, 4 ounces an hour. I'm trying to do that now tht I'm home but I'm getting full so quickly and it seems to take an hour to get 2 ounces in. I'm affraid of dehydration because I've been peeing and using the restroom a lot and don't know if I'm able to catch up with the liquids. If someone could tell me how much they are drinking or drank post op and didn't get dehydrated that would be very appreciated thanks!wow amazing job!!!haven't had a pain pump since Saturday afternoon. if it weren't for the extreme soreness in my abdominal area, I'd be 100%!
