    on the fence 2 got a reaction from HanSolo1977 in Does it get better?   
    yes every day get easier. i would say the 1st week after surgery is the toughest. hang in there,the hard part is over. your stomach is still healing. drinking Water was one of my big worries, i have a physical job and hydration was a big concern. its been a year since my sleeve and i would say i was able to chug a whole glass of water at around 4 months. just follow the advice of your surgeon and you will be thrilled with the results. the best is yet to come.

    on the fence 2 got a reaction from darima77 in I had my 2-week Post Op check up today!   
    keep trying different Protein Shakes, its very tough in the early stages to find things you like and can tolerate. for me it was vanilla premiere shakes it had to be ice cold. now i cant stand vanilla and prefer the chocolate. again the colder the better. i also like cottage cheese and its packed with Protein. i am 4 months out and can tolerate pretty much anything. i couldnt say that at 1 month out. its trial and error in the beginning. good luck

    I worked a 17 hour work day yesterday and came home and took my wife out for what I hoped would be a date afternoon.
    I still got my gym time in.
    Going to my job now for a four hour meeting on my day off.
    After this I have an appointment scheduled with my pain management Doctor for more spine injections.
    I will still get my gym time in.
    You can find the energy if you really want to.

    on the fence 2 got a reaction from arenea in Left shoulder pain while eating?   
    i have experienced left shoulder pain after eating food that was a little heavier like a meatball or tuna when beganstage three of my diet. i also posted the same question because it was a little worried. others have had the same experience. i am 2 months out and it seemed to go away. i was told by one of my drs that it is very possible it has something to do with the vagus nerve that runs through the stomach and it should go away and sure enough it did. not saying that this is what your pain is but it very well could be.
