Hello and congratulations on your decision to have the sleeve! I too had some regrets immediately post op...I had no idea what to expect regarding the pain along with the nausea that I experienced. I was on a liquid diet for 2 weeks post op and lived on shakes, cream soups from Medifast (15 g of protein) which I ordered online rather than joining and paying all of their membership fees. I am a type 2 diabetic and was diagnosed just one month pre-op. This made it even harder to choose foods that were appropriate for my diet, especially during the "soft" or "mushy" phase. My strangest craving during the first 2 weeks was pickle juice! I proudly drank it out of a shot glass and followed it with iced tea with splenda. Good luck to you and hang in there. I finally felt like I could eat enough to enjoy a variety of foods at around 5 weeks post op. It does get better!
