I was sleeved on Feb 25... I weighed 367 before surgery and now i weigh 346 ... I feel like I'm not doing enough like it should be dropping faster. I still feel and look the same to me as well.. I just got cleared for the gym Wednesday and Ive gone everyday since. Im not so much worried about weight.. I just wanna look different. I thought that losing over 20 pounds i would at least notice some differences.. Im getting bummed out and I know its only like week 3 but im pushing myself cuz I cant wait til my pants dont fit anymore lol

I hate waiting 30 minutes to drink something after I eat... it always feels like it just sits there at the bottom of my throat. bleh

LOL Ejami! You cheated for a hot dog? You're really going all out!

I was sleeved the 25th... I'm Having such a hard time getting all my Protein in.. i have shakes and unflavored Unjury powder that ive tried putting in stuff... it is NOT unflavored and it makes me gag everytime.. so ive been skimping on that... but i do try to get a shake down a day.. but thats only what 25 grams or protein.. frustrated

I too had no pain with the incisions. The nurses remarked about it. My pain comes from the gas. So I only asked for it when the gas was unbearable and walking did not help. I was more nauseated than anything and the only other time I asked for pain meds was due to a headache.
I thought the same the only way to really know that I've had the surgery is my intake. I would say, just take it slow, we have had major surgery and healing needs to be completed. The outside may not look like it but our organ was disected.
I think we will both do well. Congrats to you.

hey so Im 6 days post op and very confused. while i was in the hospital after my surgery i had no problems getting out of bed or coughing or doing anything really. I never had to ask for pain meds or anything. I had gas pains but that was about it... day 3 I left the hospital and ended up having uh sex that night, again no problem/pain what so ever and its like now the only way i know i had surgery is that it Takes me FOREVER to eat (drink) anything like tryig to drink a Protein Shake is a 2 hour event, and sometimes i have a really bad pain in my stomach which ive come to realize means that im hungry. I dont get it.. i mean Im very greatful ive had way less pain than most.. but im also afraid all of it is gonna catch up to me somehow.. Is any of this normal? I havent taken any pain meds since i was released.. im just waiting for the other shoe to drop.. i guess
