I am eating whatever I want. By that I mean healthy. I was on clears for one week and then moved to regular food. I had tune for lunch and chilli for dinner. My doctor feels you will know what you can handle. His feeling is "God gave you teeth for a reason." Today for Breakfast I had a slice of ham, for lunch I will finish the tune from yesterday and for dinner I will be having taco flavored chicken.

Today I am one week post op!!!! I feel great. I went back to work yesterday and that has been fine. My doctor released me to a full diet. Of course healthy diet but I don't have to do stages. Thank God!!! I really thought the recovery was gonna be so much harder. I know we all recover differently. I love being able to notice the changes already. When I would do a fad diet I never saw a change. I am so excited for this new life!!!

Well today is day 4 post op. It seems that so far every other day is a good day. Yesterday I felt great but today I am nauseous and have some pain. I am dealing with it pretty good. I don't take my pain meds till its time for bed. I do think I may need some Tylenol today. I lost 15.2 lbs pre op and so far 5.1 since surgery. I have not been getting in the 64 oz of Fluid but getting better every day. So far so good!!!

I was told not to worry about my Protein. They pumped me with 2 huge bags of Vitamins and protein while in the hospital. Someone mentioned in one post about a protein shot that has 42g in it. She would mix it with her crystal light. Maybe try that. Good luck and keep me posted on your journey!

I'm sleeved!!! I was sleeved at 7:30 this morning and all went well. I was in pain right after but it wasn't as bad as I expected. I slept on & off till 3 pm. They gave me some Tylenol in my IV which was good enough. I started my clears at 6:15 which went well but now the vomiting has begun. Let me tell you that SUCKS!!!!!!! I am using muscles that I would rather not use at this moment lol. I can honestly say that so far it's not as bad as I was expecting.

This happened to me. Our insurance changes March 1st and the new insurance doesn't cover weight loss surgery. My current insurance required 6 months of nutrition so once that was complete my surgeon rushed things long. I am being sleeved in the morning.

I'm in Vienna, VA. My surgery is at Virginia Hospital Center in Arlington. I wish I had your preop diet. I'm so glad I've only got one more day of liquids.
Where are you located?

Try doing something afterwards. Me and my husband do movie and bowling or pool the same night. Bowling also gets you moving a bit

You look amazing! ! Congratulations

I just walked out of doctors office with my date. JANUARY 22ND!!!! I am so excited and nervous at the same time. I start my pre op diet tomorrow. Thank god it's not 2 week of liquids like I was prepared for. Only 2 days prior do I have to do that. I have waited so long for this and for it to finally be here is CRAZY! I know 2014 is gonna be a GREAT year! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
