Day 2 and I may have already over done it
I was told to sip all the time. No straws and to get at least 48oz of fluid could use sugar free Popsicles which helped so much

July 2013 Sleevers
My NUT said tomato soup was fine. I had a V8 and it was so good. It help with bowel movements and help me with my sodium levels because it was low.

Regrets
I'm 3 mos out and I'm loving it. I don't think I've had a day that I regret it (so far fingers crossed ). I have lost 74lbs and for the first time in my life since about 12years old no diet. When I go our to eat I usually order off the appetizer menu and still end up bringing it home. I would talk to your doctor and/or your NUT and make sure everything is okay Good luck and I will pray for you

What foods do you no longer like?
I crave the taste of salt now. Before sleeve didn't use salt but now the saltier the better. My NUT said my sodium was low so I'm okay using it. I use sea salt.

Do I count the calorie's & such if I can't keep it down?
I was told not to count calories by my NUT she said use this first year to tune into our body and listen to our stomachs. Eat when hungry but make sure it is physical hunger and not head hunger. Just healthy eating for life.

What to eat
I still want to lose another 50llbs but I'm less than 3mos out. I have had a carb here and there but really don't care about eating anymore. Kind of weird but I have so much more time in my day now. LOL.
