It's happening!
I was sleeved on 12/28. I won't sugar coat this because I went through it . I wish I would have known what to expect . It's very very very hard. I can't tell you how hard . But you have to do it , think of the big picture. Yes I did cheat during my two week pre op, but that's the chance I took , not k owing if they were gonna cancel my surgery cause my liver was still too big. Don't do it , it isn't worth it .I'm down 13 lbs in 5 days !!! Hope this helps good luck !!!! Sent from my 5056N using the BariatricPal App

Does anyone else have pain in their chest when they burp and stabbing stomach pain when they swallow liquids?
Yes I get the same thing. Once it goes down its ok. I think we may be drinking too fast. Take a sip wait 20 secs till the next one same with eating Sent from my 5056N using the BariatricPal App

3 days post op , I'm doing great besides the soreness. She had to fix a hernia so had a double whammy . But other than that doing great , 8 lbs gone since surgery . I'm not hungry at all , I guess it's a good thing ! I take a couple sips of Water and I'm good for hours . Then I'll do Jello , only two small bites and it holds me up for hours. I only eat cause I have too, cause I don't get hungry at all , is this normal and should I be taking in more ? Sent from my 5056N using the BariatricPal App
