General Questions
I also kept taking my prescription the next day for high blood pressure. I didnt have any issues with swallowing pills. As JamieLogical said, make sure to discuss your concerns with your surgeon.

Cheated every day of 7 day pre op diet
Wow this thread is pretty crazy. I totally get the point of those giving some tough love to the OP. It is true that if you are having a tough time with the pre-op diet it will be even tougher post-op. Peole arent being mean, just realistic. However I dont agree with those putting others down to make the OP feel better. There are other ways to go about it.

Happy Feb. 14!
Happy Valentine's Day! Im only 2 weeks out. Me and my boyfriend always go out to our favorite Italian restaurant for way to big a dinner. He was saying he wanted Lasagna really bad. I told him order it in for dinner. He did and I had my little bit of homemade soup. It was pretty great and I didnt feel any kind of temptation at all. Ive even made dinner a couple times for him earlier this week amd while it smelled great I had no desire to eat any of it.

Any Fluid Suggestions?
Walking and Gas x strips helped me. Until I got it all out the same was happening to me. Sip and 10 minutes of burping. It does go away though.

Happy birthday? No, not Happy! Rant
Sorry to hear about everything but Im sure things will get better. This whole experience is a pretty crazy roller coaster. its going to be hard not associating special ocasions with food. the payoff will be so worth it though. Im glad theres a place like this for everyone to support each other. Hope you have a Happy Birthday!

Day 2 post op awful pain! What have I done
As others have said it does get better. I was right there this time last week. I was thinking what did I do to myself. Horrible horrible gas pains and acid. Definitely have to walk a lot and it will help. You will get through it though and it will be worth it.

Hungry post op?
I just could not believe how much I enjoyed it. Everything in it just made sense to me. His whole philosophy with what and how to eat seems so realistic and helped put me in a much better mind frame. I was recently sleeved 01/30/15 and am still on full liquids until Friday. This is making me look forward to the future and the healthy choices that I will be able to make. I have a much better perspective on this whole process.

Exercise
There are some walking DVDs where you can get your walks in right in your living room if the weather is bad right now for outside walking. I think the name od the womam that makes them is Leslie Sansone.
