Yes, I've heard that this is common with post bariatric surgeries.

I don't feel so bad then. I'm a week out as well and let me tell you, it's been though. I made chicken tetrazzinni for the family. I took a taste from the tip of a spoon and was in heaven. I've been eating potato Soup and mashing the chunks. I was worried if it was considered too thick or not. I am hungry but when I drink my Protein Shake I'm good. I think I just miss chewing

Start writing down you questions so that when they contact you you won't forget. You can ask about where he wants you regarding your activity level, if you prefer bath over showers, when you are allowed to submerge in a tub or swimming pool, what to take for Constipation, when can you advance your diet, is gum chewing allowed, taking Vitamins while versus crushing. I hope that helps

My dietitian said that even at 3 MONTHS post op I should be taking it easy. Walking yes, when energy is good (which was not till 2 months post op) and then the gym once a week. Weights not till 8-12 weeks I believe. Maybe you should do some research?? Just a thought. As someone else said, maybe just play some cards, listen, watch tv with her...keep her company. Oh and by the way, I also googled recipes while I was sitting on my butt resting as I was told to do!
I'm hoping you're not saying that a dietician suggested no regular walking until 2 months when you feel up to it. You have to ambulate, I'm not saying vigorous exercise like Zumba or whatever, but a Walk to the end of your street....something!! If not, you will be at risk for pneumonia and/or blood clots post operatively. Rest within reason

I was sleeved 4/7 and totally get it. I'm trying to figure out how often I should eat and how many oz per sitting. They had me drinking every 15 minutes, surely that can't still be the case. I have my follow up appointment on Monday so making my list of questions now

It's day 6 for me and still NOTHING! I've been on pain killers but none today and drank miralax yesterday...still nothing. Getting ready to pull out the big guns like milk of magnesia...i don't want to start getting sick from not going

I'm day 6 post gastric sleeve! I'm so tired of Tomato Soup, which I think may be too acidic and don't want to see more broth. I want cream of potato which I think would taste alot better....any other Soup suggestions week 1?
-
Just sleeved 4/7, so tomorrow will be officially one week. I'm so excited to have had it done! Now that the production is over, I already feel behind. I was behind prior to leaving the hospital....received so much Fluid I couldn't possibly get it all down. Now that I can have Soups, I'm wondering how many oz of Soup per sitting? I'm trying to get use or distinguish between the "full" versus "gas" feeling.

Sounds like you had a really bad day!! This process can not only take its toll physically but also emotionally. It's a lifestyle change. I hope you have better days
