6 days post op? You can definitely SIP and come back and SIP Liquids are not filling so you can help keep yourself hydrated this way!! .now when you start foods, you will need to make a set time to eat

I hope we get them soon!!

Awesome!!!!

It's so crazy the difference in drs and nutritionist. I was told by my nursing staff and my surgeons office including nutritionist that it definitely counts towards are 64oz of fluid intake. Best bet is do the best you can!!

Hmmmmmm that is odd...I would definitely give my surgeon a call. Hopefully its nothing serious. I'll keep you in my prayers!!

No fever? Rapid heartbeat? Pains? When I get full my nose runs lol Maybe its your full sign? Hopefully that's it

Is it under your incision?

Hehehe!!! That's a great NSV!!!

Oh my I am so sorry how much pain this must be... I wish you all the best and speedy healing!!! Praying for you!

Woohooo you look awesome!!!

Hi Kristy, Welcome to VST!!

How far out are you and how much weight have you lost? Sometimes we are doing better than we think we are... Can u give us your stats?

Oh wow that sounds hard!!! Thanks for the link I don't think my sleeve would survive the lemon or cayenne pepper lol

Glad you had some broth So sorry your day wasn't good. I hope tomorrow is better for you. You are healing, it takes work and time but it will pass. It's temporary so do the best you can to help your body heal. It gets better!!! Have you tried yogurt or applesauce?

Question: what's the master cleanse?

Hehe have to have some milk for those things!!

You look awesome!!! Great job!!!

That's fantastic!!!!

I had severe pain in my left shoulder from the surgical gas on day 5 post op...it moves around and gets stuck...try moving a lot...also gas x is good if its gas in your sleeve. Milk of magnesia is great the first months out...it works faster for us sleevers so stay close to home/bathroom but there is no cramping or pain with it like laxatives cause... Hope you feel better soon!!

I can't find them at my Walmart

Cheddar cheese slice with a jalapeno on top!! Favorite snack yummy

It's likely we'll lose our sanity before the weight if we keep weighing lol but I did it too. I felt the same exact feelings...I just look forward to seeing all your successes in the future!!! It's going to happen

Put away the scale and log your measurements. You know from being here on the boards that the scale is the enemy to our happiness Be happy!!!! 6 months from now you will be me telling another new sleever

Ummmmm you guys are not losing slow. You are both doing great with the weight loss!!! Enjoy your loss!!!!!!! Be excited!!! Celebrate Don't let yourself deny you this time of happy happy happy!!!

The beginning is a struggle. Keep water by your side and sip sip sip....some sips I just wet my lips. It's lots of work in the beginning...to heal our poor stomaches from being surgically cut and stapled. The good news is this is temporary...its not what your life will entail...this is just the time we have to spend healing our bodies. Do the very best you can for your body to heal and you will be on the road to feeling good. Congrats everyone!!!
