12 days out, I took a week off. Day 3 went to the mall and walked around (little shopping) by day 5 I was board out of mind and wanted to go back to work. It all depends on how you feel. Walking gave me tons of energy... I was self pay, I would say after the blood work (pre-opp) two weeks. I didn't have a pre-opp diet at all. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Can this stuff go bad or does it just Taste really bad, like nasty bad? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I didn't even own a scale. My mom was in town- she bought one. Right there sitting in my bathroom. But honestly, I think Christy is right- I feel gross because I just need to poop. I am not hungry or complaining I am suffering trying to lose weight- just shocked I don't feel thinner because I am bloated. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you. I just needed to hear it. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I know everyone is going to tell me I am crazy. I introduced soft foods on Friday and I have to say I don't feel as thought I am losing weight. Like come on, you have to be kidding me. I am bloated and actually gained a pound on Saturday and haven't lost it yet. Someone please tell me 11 days out they had this experience. Have to be kidding me, I don't want to be the ONE person this doesn't work for. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

This morning I had my Protein shake and then had some Soup at Panera (they have this chicken and rice soup) and I got 2/3 through and was done. But I don't feel like I should have been able to have that much. Thank you for allowing me to ask btw, I appreciate the help. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am worried. I can drink Protein shakes no problem, Water no problem - soft foods no problem. Can someone please tell me this is okay 8 days out! What is this isn't going to work on me? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you guys! Just want to make sure. Seems like I was suppose to suffer more. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am not doing something wrong? How can I consume so much? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Sleeve last Friday 9.2.16- ummm I can drink Water and Protein no problem. I just tried Soup and no problem. I can take in more then 4 ounces. Is something wrong??? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hey, I am 6 days out. I haven't been "hungry" but wouldn't mind some crackers. I did switch to primer Protein and it made a world of difference for the taste. I was actually angry I drank the other shakes, what a difference. I am worried I can drink so much- I am waiting and waiting. I get all my Fluid in, I found the Soup made me bloated. So I eat Popsicles and Water. Tomorrow I get a cracker and deli meat. I sound crazy! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I just tried pure Protein. Thank goodness thank goodness - I am pissed I even consumed the other ones. Woo woot that's over with. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I had my sleeve on Friday, on Saturday I watched that show. My mom kept telling me I was a sicko, but I think it was good to see. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Can you try a different kind? My center gave me juice ones then today (5days out) I switch to the one you add milk to. But I heard pure Protein taste the best. I also heard put the Protein powder in your yogurt or something. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am not going to do anything either but I have been thinking about maybe some things I wouldn't mind having, again some goldfish crackers. LOL I hope when I finally eat one I hate them. I am day 5 and went shopping at the mall yesterday- I totally understand what you are talking about. Like I have a little secret. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
