Post Op meeting protein/fluid requirements
I had my sleeve on Wednesday and I was just wondering how others get there fluid/protein requirements in? I feel like I am constantly shoving something down my throat and I am always feeling full. I am supposed to get 60-80 grams of protein in a day and even drinking the supplements it is hard. I want more water than anything else I am thirsty!!!! Am I expecting to much to soon?

Day 5 and feeling alive
I can't believe the difference from yesterday. I woke up feeling refreshed and less sore. I have had some yogurt and am getting ready to go out for a short walk. I feel like I am going to be ok and I am going to get thru this experience. Thankful for all the love and support I have received. I feel excited today and ready to tackle a new challenge!

What did you tell people?!?!?
I guess I am very blessed to work in an environment that is supportive. I was honest from the beginning with co workers and friends and I haven't had any problems. I even decided to put it on Facebook and share with them. I didn't want people gossiping or making up there own versions so I just put it out there. I have had tons of well wishes and support. When you start losing weight they are going to put it together and then you will just be a liar.

Post Op and I feel awful! please help
I am 3 days out and came home yesterday. I am sore but besides that just being home helps so much. I got my drain out b4 I left the hospital and they told me I can shower today! I can't wait it is going to feel so good to blow the stink off. My main concern is getting my liquid requirements in. I saw in my book it says to aim for 4oz every hour. So I am going to try and follow this today. Good luck with your journey!
