I was sleeved same day as you.. great loss..I am about the same..few pounds more but I have a lot to lose.. I think its funny how all Dr. are so different.. I have been on pureed foods since last Wednesday.. not doing to good though..I try every few days its hard..good luck as you move forward

I am experiencing the same thing..everyone says I am eating too fast or too much..I really don't think I am..I have a timer that goes off every 2 min for each bite..I am only getting in about 500 calories a day..and 400 of it are Protein shakes... and then when I do "eat" I feel like I am gonna gain weight which is crazy because who gains from eating 100 calories worth of food??? I think I over think...lol

You are fine..should be about 1 oz every 15 min

Wow..u must love your Dr..lol.I am almost 3 weeks out and not eating that yet..and I kinda wish I could.. can't stand how sweet the shakes are..

I can't wait for that..lol..how far out are you?

My surgery was March 6th..lost 17 pounds on pre-op and 23 pounds since surgery..down 40 pounds so far!

I am allergic to that.. gonna try some aspercream we will see how it goes..

You will do fine..sending prayers your way..keep us posted

I am 2 weeks post op and while I have never had pain from surgery, a couple days after surgery I developed this severe pain in my neck..OK..maybe I slept on it wrong..about a week later it went away and moved into my arm..hurts so bad can't even move it.. went to Dr. I have multiple pinched nerves from surgical positioning..??? what??? Now yes this is not as extreme as leaks or blood clots..I get it..but I also can not take anything because my tummy is too new for NSAIDS right now and Tylenol doesn't do jack s#*t for me..so sorry..I just had to vent.. I am more stressed about going back to work..I am a hairstylist and my hands and arms are my money makers...anyone else have anything like this happen to them??? ***sigh***

Not sure about juicing.. I think you must really cook the heck out of the veggies before pureeing them..so not sure how that would work..

This is my food diary now.. 7 am-12 pm drink isopure (sip sip sip)... 1 pm 1/4 cup soup... 3-4 pm 1/4 cup soup... 6-7 pm 1/4 cup ff yogurt with protein powder... calories for the day about 350...protein about 50 g.. is this about what everyone is doing at this stage..???

I am having a tough time recognizing when I get full til its too late ..I am 8 days out and I "eat" about every 4 hours about 3 oz of soup..I take about 15-20 min to eat and by the time the last spoon goes in..PAIN!!!! Why cant I "feel" the full feeling before this???? So frustrating.. and yes I have cut back..lol..still happens..I am lucky to get 300 cal in a day

I am just a few days ahead of you and still cant even get half the protein in..I have been told not to rush it..I was weak as ever until today..hang in there..your body will adjust

My recovery is going good no issues except this trapped gas in my right shoulder..other than that..nothing..thank goodness cause I was scared..but glad its a distant memory.. lol

Dont get too excited about eating again..lol.. its probably gonna be a long time for that but it will be worth it.. I am a week out but excited to report that creamed soup is my new bff..

Hello..I am from Lockport.. I was sleeved 3-6 by Dr Caruana..how about you???

I will try that pill..I just got rx filled today..hope that works..I hope I am not getting stuffed off 1-2 oz of liquid..lol..it takes me 30 min to get that in..lol

Squeezing feeling at the center of my chest...anytime of day..more after I eat (soup) than drink..damn it hurts!!! Anyone else have this????
