  1. Hi all, I was just sleeve Monday 11/26. I am 4 days post op and am looking for any advice you can give me. I get so full so easily. I was looking forward to soft queso fresco for lunch that I cut off an oz and left the cheese on the counter CONVINCED I would need to cut off more. I got a little under half way through and even that was pushing it. I am ridiculously full still and I ate this over an hour ago. : ( I love cheese but : ) restriction. Any advice on how to survive the first few weeks? I am on soft foods and am drinking optimum nutrition 100% soy Protein. My dad is concerned that I am not eating much, he is the one who bought the cheese specifically to encourage me to eat more. Any advice for Water intake? I can get in about 20 oz and 6 oz protein in a day. And any advice for walking? I am perhaps lazy but I just do laps in my house and get tired so fast. And I break a sweat so fast as well. Thanks for the help!!!!
  2. I have told around... 25-30 people. My own family thinks I cheated. That I took the easy way out. I read a blog somewhere that said if weight loss surgery is considered easy, then using a washing machine instead of beating your clothes with a rock by the river, driving a car instead of walking or horse and wagon, and cooking stove top instead of lighting a fire and cooking off the ground sure is the easy way out too. It's a TOOL. But of course, people will Always judge regardless
  3. How many days post op are you? Try to walk, when I was 1 day post op, I swear I was having a heart attack. And the nurses totally blew me off as well for saying that. I suppose everyone assumes its gas. If its not going away, you're not burping or farting, and it's increasing, go to the hospital. Better one false alarm than not doing anything when it really is something.
