Ohhh...this is sorta me!! I'm only 4 days post op. Keeping down four ounces of broth at a time easily! Can drink water all day, eating my jello and sf pops. Spreading it out but was starting to think I was taking in too much fluid too fast. guess not? I feel like I could drink more but won't for fear of stretching. I am hungry cuz no protein shakes(drs orders). What is a swallow test? I see dr Monday for follow up and am really hoping for mashed potatos!!!

Well, I was sleeved Monday the 23rd of July, and this being Friday after, there is no way I would want to be camping with friends. I know everyone is different. I thought I would be going to the beach 2 days after but my dr told me travel was not an option due to blood clot risk. I was in a lot of pain and went back to the ER after my outpatient surgery. I am way better, holding down fluids, walking the neighborhood, but needing lots of rest. I would take care of yourself first! It was not an easy 1st 2 days post-op for me. I do feel that I recovered quickly though and I wish you the best (:

Nobody said "you're going to go home heavier" it was just a little shocking. Glad to hear I'm not the only one Best of luck to you!

Sleeved on monday! Came home from surgery and weighed an additional 10pounds. I'm assuming that was fluids/gas? I've since lost that plus some but was wondering if anyone else had that experience? Thanks.
