  1. When I go to the Chinese buffet I usually eat peel and eat shrimp. Lol that's it!
  2. I sleep on my side at 6 days post op, even found myself on my belly last night. Lol all was okay.
  3. I get it too and I was sleeved the same day. It's more like a pulling of my incisions.
  4. No hiccups or burping yet, but I get what feels like a cramp in my chest and then stop. I ate my hot cereal super slow on a baby spoon so I would know when I'm done. I'm so glad to feel that restriction!
  5. Sounds like outback! I love their wedge salad and 6 oz steak. Oh god, now I'M dreaming about it. Yum!
  6. I'm only 6 days out, but LOVE going out to eat. What suggestions do you guys make for different restaurants? I typically love Chinese but worry since everything seems to be cooked in oil.
  7. I just started full liquids and was given the okay for cream of wheat. I took 2 oz of that and added 1 oz of milk ( made w 1% milk too). I was almost done and got a squeezing in my belly right under my boobs. Is that my new sleeve telling me to stop?
  8. What does it feel like when something gets stuck?
  9. I am a nursing student and am going back to school Monday which is 1 wk post op. I have a clinical with school aged kids. Hopefully there is no problem.
  10. How is the potato and chicken soup? I have a whole container that I haven't opened yet. I'm kinda afraid. So I guess I am going to have to do Breakfast, lunch, dinner and drink in between. Do you guys use mashed potatoes from a box?
  11. 3 oz of cooked cereal, right? Then add the milk to thin it. I just made a thinned serving. It was a PITA to make and I wasted so much. I feel like an idiot. Probably just lack of nutrition.lol
  12. Oh and seriously, the cream of wheat had no substance to it whatsoever, lol. So having read what you said I'm sure it just slid through.
  13. Okay I'll give a call. When you do your 3 tbsp. of say, soup. Do you just measure it out?
  14. I'm 5 days post op. I think my biggest question is how much should I eat of a full liquid? 1/4 c. -1/2c.? I don't want to overheat w/ o realizing it.
  15. Okay so I just ate 1/3 c. Soupy cream of wheat. I waited like 20 min and drank a few oz of water. I don't feel anything going on. No fullness feeling, nothing. It seems like everyone on here feels full. Why don't i?
  16. I made soupy cream of wheat but have no idea when enough is enough. I used 1 c milk and 2 tbsp. farina with a touch of Splenda. What would be considered a serving? I ate probably 1/3 of it and feel like I could eat more, but don't want to risk anything. Help!
  17. Thanks,! I called my dr and she told me to start full liquids. Just made some super soupy cream of wheat. It's the most delicious thing in the entire world.
  18. I Keep pooping. It's 10:30 and I've had diarrhea 3 x today. It's not smelly or anything. Should I be concerned?
  19. Woohoo! I'm four days post op and while I regretted it for a few minutes...I am down 20 lbs! No more regrets here!
  20. I'm curious too. We love love love Pinkberry!
  21. Btw, my calves are so sore from all the walking...guess I really didn't do much before. ( don't worry, no clots)
  22. I needed to get out of there. I was actually my dr.s first patient to leave after 1 night. She is ultra conservative! Oh god, I can't wait to have some cream of wheat or yogurt. Clear liquid till Sunday.
