    Looks like lots of stalls at 3 weeks post op. I am in the same boat. Surgery was June 11. Down 21 since pure op liquids. Currently on a soft food diet. Doing okay with food, especially after medication for reflux was prescribed. Thanks to EVERYONE for all the information and encouraging words. This is a phenomenal group!!

    2 weeks post op and doing great! Walked almost a mile today with no complications. On a soft-food diet and trying to figure out exactly when to stop eating before I hit that too full feeling. (Eating very little - eyes are much bigger than stomach!) Trying really hard to change my ways. Any suggestions??

    Good luck to all! Post-op soft food diet isn't too bad. It is nice to have some different flavors. Added GNC's Isopure Zero Carb 40 Protein flavored drinks to my daily sipping. Flavors aren't too bad and it is better than all the shakes. It helps get all the Proteins in! Looking forward to adding a variety of foods in about 3 weeks. Hope everyone has an easy road!!

    I was thinking the same thing about my stomach. Guess I worry too much. Glad we and others are doing so well. Wish everyone could feel like I feel.

    I am on the full liquid diet right now. Hoping to start soft/smooth foods tomorrow after my post-op appointment. I feel I am ready to try real foods. What is your next food step?

    Hi there I am on day 11 sleeved on the 6th and also had a hiatal hernia fixed. I am the same. Thankfully. I have had no problems getting things down. In fact it has made me feel like maybe they left my stomach too big. No major pain issues either. I think we must be very lucky.

    Down 10 since sleeved on the 11th! I think I am one of the lucky ones. I am not having any major problems getting the liquids down. I do have some upper chest/shoulder pain, but I also had a haital hernia. Not sure if the pain is from that or the sleeve. I am looking forward to some 'real' food soon. I have also gained most of my energy. Wishing everyone a speedy and easy recovery. Good luck to those being sleeved this week.

    Congrats to all the recent sleevers. Our journey begins now. My surgery went well and recovery is going great. I do admit that it is difficult to get all the fluids in when you are NOT hungry.
