wow you are doing really well! I was sleeved on the 18th and am still working on the protein. I hope to be at 60 tomorrow. I am ok on fluids. I am on a liquid diet which includes yougurt and cream soup no problems as of yet. I also get a weird spasm but not under my sternum it is right under my rib cage on the left where the drain was. I haven't had any problems with feeling full yet. I am also napping a lot even without pain meds. My only complaint is that the staples are itchy. They are drying up and starting to pull. I go and have them out on the 27th so not much longer. I think the best day I've had is when I got to take a hot shower! It is cold here and it hit the spot! Hope everything stays great!

HI! Congrats! I had my sleeve done on Tuesay and I am down to 231 from 238 so not as much as you but not bad. My highest weight was 257 and my sugery weight was 238 thanks to the liquid diet. I am so tired of liquids and like you can't wait for mashed food. Sounds silly but it is true. I was also walking soon after surgery and felt like a loner. Not many people walked a lot. Maybe that is why they stayed an extra day in the hospital! I am fighting headaches maybe not drinking enough but I am trying to get in four ounces an hour. Almost there. Hope all goes well for you!

I have surgery tomorrow morning too! Good Luck to you and check in when you can. I am also worried but we started this journey to get to a healthy place and we will get there!

I am right there with you! I am scheduled for tomorrow morning and I am so scared! Everyone on this site is very supportive and I hope to report back soon on my progress! I am just as emotional and everything happening in the world is really getting to me! I did break down and cry several times in the past two days. Maybe its the lack of food that is making me so emotional?

My suggestion is that you go see you doctor! Mine has told me over and over that any pain that is consistant or over a three is not ok to just deal with. Better safe than sorry right?

WOOOHOOO I am set fo the 18th! You are going to be great! Good luck and have a great "restart"

My parents tried too and I am a 40 year old widow with two kids and have been out of thier house for a very long time. I had to stand strong because I have to do this for me and my health. You know what is best for you! If you really want this and you are ready do what you know is best! Never doubt yourself.

Thanks! I just joined this site about half an hour ago so I appreciate your answers. I am hoping that everything goes as well for me as it has for you. Keep up the good work!

Thank I'm just scared I think. And liquid diet is kinda hard but I will get through it

When did you have surgery? I am scheduled for the 18th How was it, I am having second thoughts
