Hi all

I am just over five weeks since being sleeved and am still on purée but not getting much down- usually no more than 6 teaspoons. Just wondering if this is normal at this stage. I am having a bit of anxiety about going out for meals socially as I haven't told anyone apart from family about the op and worried it will become obvious when I literally don't eat anything so wondering when people started to be able to get a bit more down

It's funny how different people's experiences are. I'm sure it will get better for us both

I was like that till this week! How far post op are you?

About 1litre Water plus other fluids altogether around 1.8litres

Has anyone else suffered from being constantly thirsty? I am three weeks post op and every day I am finding I need to drink more and more. It's torture at night and sometimes whilst I am half asleep I gulp down Water to quench the thirst and then get a severe gas pains. Has anyone else suffered from this? it's driving me mad especially when I can't drink until 30mins after food (currently on purée)

Thanks guys the weird thing was I was feeling fine for days and then it literally hit me like a tonne of bricks. It was my first week back at work so I am probably just exhausted. I keep thinking I am having severe chest pains also but I think it's just wind.

Looking forward to moving to purée on Sunday!

I was sleeved on 1/24 starting weight 212 current weight 183 so have lost a total of 25lbs which I am very happy with although today something strange happened. I woke up so weak I could hardly move I felt so lightheaded. I am still on liquid phase but it's literally lasted all day I feel like a zombie. Also even with a 25lbs drop my stomach seems so big part of me thinks even bigger than before,I am so swollen. So my questions

1. Is it normal on liquid phase to have weak days

2. When did the Stomach swelling go down

Thanks
