I can't wait to not have to worry if I will be able to fit on certain roller coasters. Sent from my iPhone using VST

I will be able to see if at my one month if they remember, or if the surgeon is there. I wish I wouldn't have been too out of it at the hospital to ask lol Sent from my iPhone using VST

I took two but they wanted me to wait a month so we compromised with three. I go back Monday. Sent from my iPhone using VST

I'm waiting for six months because I have never stuck with anything and I need to do this... Also alcohol is going to be SO strong at that point of having nothing. It's gonna be a great party lol Sent from my iPhone using VST

I wish I would have got this done when my high weight was 200 something. I waited until I was 312 lbs... My regret is not doing it earlier Sent from my iPhone using VST

I go to my appointment in a few hours. I only requested off work for two weeks. I feel like I'm fine to go back tomorrow but from what I'm hearing everyone is taking three weeks to a month off. Wonder if my doctor will let me go back tomorrow. Sent from my iPhone using VST

I am one week post op and I just wanted to see what I could tolerate... I made spaghetti for my family's dinner tonight and I was able to eat 3/4 cup of meat sauce with maybe five or six noodles. It went down with absolutely no problem. I know I know I shouldn't be doing this.... But my question is why could I? Sent from my iPhone using VST

Everything you said is true. We will see how it goes tomorrow. Sent from my iPhone using VST

I was sleeved November 12 and lost 25 lbs since preop and 14 lbs since surgery. I have my 2 week check up Monday and should probably be going to work Tuesday. Sent from my iPhone using VST

I have my two week check up on Monday. I haven't done everything perfectly but I feel great. What do they do at this visit? Do they do another leak test? That would be amazing. I started mushies and soft foods before I should have, and while I don't think there's a problem, it would be great to have it confirmed. What went on at your two week visit?

So I'm assuming if they will be able to tell by the vitals if there may be a possible leak Sent from my iPhone using VST

I'm 12 day out and I had to buy a tongue scraper. I do that an mouth wash every few hours. Not sure what I'm going to do when I go back to work Tuesday. Sent from my iPhone using VST

I think that may be what I had yesterday! I bought individual packets so it doesn't have a brand on it Sent from my iPhone using VST

I'm the opposite. I could probably still enjoy the heck out of some food... I don't like drinking. Water used to be AMAZING to me and I would drink it all day long... Now it's hard for me to drink two glasses a day... Not because I'm full... Because its not delicious anymore Sent from my iPhone using VST

How many of you guys have Instagram? What's your username? I'm spieldose. Add me! Sent from my iPhone using VST

I did Atkins for two weeks and lost 12 lbs. I also went to a buffet two days before surgery, knowing it would be my last. I freaked OUT before surgery though... Thinking that binge fest made my liver huge. I'm SO glad I ate that Buffett. Sent from my iPhone using VST

I have been looking at Instagram pictures of pizza for the past hour!! Lol Sent from my iPhone using VST

pizza on the other hand!... That's not bread! Thats amazing ness! I need to stay away from that as long as I humanly can lol Sent from my iPhone using VST

I tried mashed potatoes six days out and i was fine. Maybe if you're gonna get a leak you're just gonna get a leak. I haven't had bread... But I just don't like bread very much. Sent from my iPhone using VST

I got sleeved the same day as you. I tried to eat a spoonful of chicken salad after day 5 because liquids were hurting my stomach and i couldn't stomach them. So I figured if I could just get a spoonful of chicken salad down then that would maybe make up for all the nutrients I wasn't getting. Its day 8 out now and I feel great. My stomach hurts a tiny bit after the first thing I swallow, but after that initial one, I'm fine. I've dabbled in softfoods already, with no problem. I'm doing liquids as my main sustenance because I don't want to overdue it or cause a leak, but I really think I could go to the next stage full on right now. Long story short - it gets better. I guess I was just one of the lucky ones that don't get much pain.

What did your doctor have to check to clear you? I have my two week visit in a week. I'm only eight days out, but I have tried a few mushy foods already and they were fine. Did he ask you if you'd tried anything, and how it went? Did they do another xray to make sure there were no leaks?

I'm 5'4.5" lol not really "short", but not really tall either. I'm on Instagram as spieldose. Onewriterssoul and I are if friends! I'm going to add you! I was sleeved exactly a week ago at 300 lbs and I'm now 11.2 lbs lighter! Nice to meet you! Good luck on your journey! Sent from my iPhone using VST

Thanks. I will go back to my liquids. I just thought that maybe I'm a fast healer... Since I hear people talking about not being able to stomach liquids... And I can already stomach heavier. I chewed each bite a ridiculous amount and took incredibly small bites so I don't think I have done any damage so far. People say "listen to your sleeve", and I honestly expected to feel sick or to immediately throw up if my sleeve was rejecting something...I thought my sleeve would reject it. I'm in no pain at all anymore and I feel like I could even go back to the gym right now. Reading that some people started pureed food while IN the hospital just lead me to think that maybe it would be okay. I wish I had an X-ray at home so I could see what exactly is going on in there!
