I'm 13 days post op and have major bubble gut! I only drank Crystal light prior to surgery and that's what I'm drinking now. My tummy sounds like Chewbacca is fighting his way out! It's pretty amusing, actually....

The first two weeks are the toughest. I was sleeved on 3/30/12 the first week is sugar free clears. So you have minimal calories once I started drinking the Protein drinks I had a big increase in energy. The headache is from dehydration most likely. If you had a lot of caffeine before surgery could be withdrawal. Please don't question your decision. I was going through my phone last night and found a picture from January showed it to some one did not realize it was me. I have lost 40 lb since prepping I am past my 3 week stall and down from a 2 xl to xl and they are big. I feel great. Just keep up the fluids. You are doing great.

Hello,
This is my first time posting here, or any other forum, but I just wanted to share my story and have some support during this journey.
I have been overweight my entire life, but in the last 5 years I gained over 80 lbs., develoved high blood pressure and sleep apnea. It has been difficult doing any physical activity as my knees and back will always hurt.
I tried 3 years ago to see if my insurance will me for gastric bypass but they denied it. I tried again in April and they immediately approved it, and I was sleeved on the 24th.
This is day 4 post-op and I'm still sore but feeling great.
I'm mostly struggling with what to drink. I started drinking Protein Shakes, broth, italian icees, and crystal light, but do not want to try any puree food until 1 week post-op.
On my last weight in on Monday April 23rd, I weight 268 lbs., this morning I weight in at 249 lbs. Am I lossing too fast? Any suggestions?

Juliette, I was also sleeved on April 24th. I am feeling pretty good now still struggling to get in the liquids but learned quickly the more I take in the better I feel. I started this journey at 336, day of surgery I was 310 and as of yesterday I was at 300. I am ready for the new life that is full of blessings, I know that everyone who has struggled with weight has had too many restrictions.
Good luck on your new journey.
