@@natalievsg and @madmax68- I was sleeved 3/2 and left the hospital 11 pounds heavier. Yesterday I went for my 2 week post op appt. I have lost 5 pounds from the weight I was day of surgery. I said to the Dr I thought I would have lost more and he said I'm right where I should be. I guess we just have to be patient after all we didn't gain all that weight overnight.

Livingstone sorry to hear it been a rough few weeks. Each day does get better. Walking helped me with the pain. I've been making my own broth and found a protein powder that's really good. It's from bariatric eating..inspire whey isolate powder. They have caramel latte, dutch chocolate cake, peanut butter cookie, peanut butter cup are just a few. They mix really smooth. Good luck

Hi everyone. I was sleeved 3/2 and doing pretty good. Still a little sore where the incisions are but getting in water and protein. When I left the hospital I had gained 11 pounds. I know it was probably all the fluid they pumped into me. Now 11 days post op I'm only down 3 pounds from my weight the day of the surgery. How are the rest of you doing ?

Good luck kaninag. Hope they figure out what's going in and that you are feeling better soon.

Thanks giggleblue

Hi. Glad you are both doing better. I was also sleeved monday. Surgery was about 10:30am. I got to my room about 4pm and went for my 1st walk at 6. I only had ice chips until Tuesday until they did the leak test. Then I was able to have clear liquids. I had lots of gas pain but walked 3-5 times a day, but then had to take pain med. I was able to take a shower Tuesday. Wednesday no more pain just sore. Tylenol took care of that. I got all my fluids in and got out of the hospital about 1pm Wednesday. I haven't had any trouble getting in my water and protein shakes. I do still burp a lot while drinking and have had a headache the last two day. Have either of you had a headache?

Had surgery Monday just got home now feeling pretty good. Just had my first protein shake, went down pretty good

Had my surgery this morning. Some pain but walking and eating ice chips. Good luck to the rest of the March sleevers.
