    Help!

    First off What kind of surgery did you have? Dumping doesn't usually happen to people who had the Gastric sleeve. I to had a bite of a hot dog 8 days out, not the bun only the hot dog, I chewed it over 40 times before i swallowed it, I also had a little bit of spaghetti the next day and a bite of ice cream. I had no side effects AT ALL!!! I swallowed really slow and took small bites. I felt and feel fine. Im still doing my shakes. This morning 11 days out I had some scrambled eggs. Sometimes I think it depends on the individual. the day after surgery i was out Gambling and shopping for I did my procedure in Las Vegas. I feel great. not to mention I lost 28 pounds. dont stress over it you know youre body better than anyone else. Hang in there. Soon you will eat again but you will get full and satisfied really quick.

    4 day post op pain

    Yes i felt that to, its like I knew exactly where the Fluid that i was drinking was when it passed that certain part of my chest, I always braced my self for that passing point. It went away after about a week. Im 2 weeks out tomorrow Hang in there. it gets better.
  3. I don't swallow any vitamins at all, I bought a bunch of vitamin patches from my Drs office. You just stick it on for 24 hrs then remove it and it last for 3-5 days (depending on the vitamin) the omega and calcium +D3 is every 4 days and the B12 power patch and B12 high dose+12 essential vitamins is every 5days. Its wonderful and I love it. I still have to take my Ultima Electrolyte drink for my minerals but the patches are great.

    Post surgery gas pain!

    Yes I to laid on my side, got up and walked for a bit, I burped a lot after sipping mostly, but actual passing gas seemed better if I was sitting on the toilet. It's been 8 days and I don't feel gassy anymore.
  5. Yes, the day after surgery my throat and upper chest (like the top of my cleavage) was sore. I think it was from the breathing tube. I forced myself to drink and eat ice. It did not go away completely I am now 7 days post op but it is getting better.

    April 6 sleeve!

    I had surgery done on 4/14/15 it has been 6 days I want to eat everything, i feel like I'm starving. Day 1 I had only water and ice chips day 2,3&4 I had water and protein shakes, day 5 I had a little bit of Greek yogurt with some chocolate protein powder mixed in it (approx. 2oz) and some chicken broth, not at the same time, but during the day, day 6 I had 1 apple sauce no sugar added organic. 3.5 oz. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to have these things in my first week but I feel great. Keeping all fluid down and incisions are healing good. My information pack I got to refer to after surgery says I can have things that can slip through a funnel. I'm hoping what I'm doing is ok. I've tried calling my Drs office to ask but the time difference between where I had the procedure and where I live is a problem. ( I went to another state to do my sleeve). Someone please let me know if what I'm doing is DANGEROUS.
