I started out on the soft food stage, and am doing good. My meals can only be Protein (eggs, cheese, soft flaky fish, chicken, etc.), and I have to do one shake per day. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

I am five days out and feel really good. I went to the grocery store today, and went to grab a cup of decaf coffee and some talk time with fellow sleevers. We all heal differently, so keep walking and getting those fluids in, and you will begin to feel better with each day. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

Hi Gina....I am feeling great. We did have a good little catch up today. It felt great to get out for a little while and catch up with the team. We are hoping to catch up again after the holidays. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

Definitely stop taking the diuretic, and continue eating the foods high in potassium. Mine was low for the same reason, and the morning of my surgery they delayed me and gave me two potassium drips to get it up to surgery levels in order to continue. My discharge instructions they took me off the diuretic. Keep following their orders. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

I had my sleeve on the 12th also, and came home yesterday. I slept most of the night, but have been up and walking the house today. I did take a good nap this afternoon, and have been sipping hot tea as my liquid to help with the gas, and sucking on my gas x strips. I have minimal pain so I took Tylenol vs the oxycodone they prescribed. I am praying it gets better for you both. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

My day is finally here!! Best of luck to my surgery day twins, and remember me in my prayers! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

I am two days post op and doing okay so far. Incision pain is manageable with Tylenol, and not much gas as I have been sipping warm tea. My surgery was delayed because my potassium levels were low. I received two potassium drips, which hurt like hell, and then they retested and decided to move along. No rest in the hospital as they wake you every two hours to walk the floor. It was definitely beneficial in moving that gas and relieving some of the pain. Now onto my mushy/soft diet! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

Girl....this stomach of mine has always held up, I am praying it keeps it up to get me through this new phase. I was dreading testing out the eggs as a lot of people noted eggs didn't sit well for them, but it worked out. I need this stomach to hold up as I am on straight mushy/soft Protein for the next month. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

Wow...glad you are doing okay after that scare. Best of luck on the 28th. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

First morning home, and feeling good. I ate most of a scrambled egg with cheese, and had a cup of peppermint tea. Everything stayed down so first hurdle down. My team starts us off on stage 2 mushy and soft diet, so had to have some mushy Protein and at least 8oz of liquid and keep it down in order to be sent home.

I am on LI and got sleeved on the 12th. I am home and feeling good. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

Oh sunsetsue so sorry you are in pain. If you are still in the hospital, ask the nurse for pain medication. Ask for GasX also, as the pain may be gas related. Don't sit in pain. I came home yesterday, and they gave me oxycodone to take home. I did not much meds so I am just doing Tylenol. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

Thanks Teeman15....surgery went well, and recovery isn't too bad yet. Waiting to see what tomorrow brings when the drugs wear off! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

Thanks for the prayers and well wishes everyone. Surgery was a success after an initial delay caused by low potassium. Heading back to snooze, wishing everyone a speedy recovery!! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

That is way early, and I won't likely get any rest as my hospital has you walking every two hours once you head to your room....they will wake you up! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

Thank you....I guess I am first up as I have to be at the hospital at 5:45am. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App
