  1. I'm 10 days out from gastric sleeve surgery and I've lost nine pounds. I was supposed to do full liquid diet until this Friday, but after seeing my doctor for the first follow appt they gave me clearance to start with food. I was very nervous to try food since I've been on liquids for a little more than three weeks now. Problem is when I tried eating I had absolutely NO PROBLEM. I then waited 45 minutes after eating and drank a 32oz bottle of Water with NO PROBLEM. I really have had none of the issues with liquids that others on this forum have had after surgery from broth to Protein shakes. I chewed my food a bunch of times just like you're supposed to and no problem. Should I be feeling weird about this? I actually was hoping that it would take some of the will power aspect out of this by getting the surgery. Problem is I feel I feel like I can eat whatever I want which isn't good. Mind you, I just had a half a can of chili (which was on the handout from the doc) but it went down easy like I've never had surgery in the first place. Has this happened to anyone else?
