I was also sleeved on 7/28. My dr just moved me to pureed. They advance us slower but I have to say not vomiting. They also said eggs may take a while to sit ok. Also I am rule follower are u eating w baby size spoon? & taking 20-30m for meals. Remember slow & steady wins the race! Good luck -
I agree walk walk walk. I was sleeved 7/28 & first cpl days the only pain was GAS. Walking the halls u also meet others doing same thing & get to chatting.

Im waiting on 1st shipment. This would save me $100 a month! So worth the paperwork & email tag to get it done. I prefer premier chocolate and when needed I thin it down w milk so not as sweet. Good luck

Hello are you getting in your water and protein? If not that makes you much weaker. I would concentrate on those 2 thing's first and then calories. When I'm hydrated & full of protein I have a much better day. Good luck. 12days post op down 8lbs plus the 10.5lbs I gained in hospital. Good luck -
I agree im only 2wks out but from others I know they didnt drop sizes each week. I have several dresses and skirts that I have been wearing and that by adding a sweater and tights or leggings with should carry me into fall before I need to hit up goodwill.

I was sleeved 7/28 down 16 if u count the 10lbs I gained in hospital. On liquids for second week but losing my mind so I pureed and strained pea soup. Its very thin but feel like I'm not eating enough still. Got my cycle 2wks early and feeling depressed. Should I just go back to ALL protein shakes. Even w meals & 2 shakes a day I'm at 620cal a day! Help. -
I too was sleeved on 7/28 & have had a dull headache. I'm chalking it up to ALL the changes my body is going thru. If it keeps up after 2nd post op visit I will ask about it.
