  1. Deff gets better each day! I was nervous the first day to as anyone should be but my pain pretty much subsided itself and I feel great. U deff need to try those strips tho I can't even believe how much better they made me feel!
  2. And u did this for yourself it's guna be so worth it and to ur family for being aroun longer living a healthy life!
  3. Don't be nervous just be taking small sips at first of something and if it goes well try a little more. Their is nothing to be scared of. I had squash soup bisque today sounds funny but it was kinda tasting butternut squash it was so yummy. I can't Stand broth. I even made minestrone soup and strained it so I had only the broth. It's mostly in ur head mind over matter. If u try something and say I think ill like this and not be worried about the pain it will probably work for u. I have strong will power lol and only being 5 days out feel pretty much normal
  4. I was sleeved on the 23rd of this week and am in no pain and sometimes even feeling hunger pains tho. Idk if that's normal or what. I'm having no issues getting my fluids down and am eating cream soups etc. I sometimes think did I really even have surgery or did he just make marks on my belly lol
  5. I was sleeved on Wednesday oct 23 .. Had that annoying upper gas. I highly recommend gas x strips they dissolve on ur tongue and have worked wonders for me. I can pretty much get down any liquid all kinds of soups and once in a while a hunger pain even.. Might be a thirsty pain I don't even know still confused lol. I haven't been on the scale since surgery but already noticing a difference in just my face alone.
