What? A sandwich 5 days out? I can't even take a mouthful of Water and I was on 15 Feb. I don't think you are allowed to eat until 4-5 weeks

The advice my dr gave me was sip, sip, sip. Whenever I have a free moment sip, always have a bottle with me, sip on tea, coffee, diet cordial.

YOU CAN DO IT! We can do it together! I am only 1 week in and in terrible pain, but we can't turn back now! We can do this!! We can help each other lose the weight and sip sip sip.
I have a cup in the kitchen, bedroom and lounge rooms, so everywhere I go I can pick up a cup and sip.

It was onetime mistake and regret a lot since then I am on liquid diet

I am 7 days out and still in pain, but only where the stitch is! If I take anything bigger than a sip I have pain, and then will burp... lovely

Coughing is the worst pain for me

I was sleeved same day as you and I can't get in more than about 30 oz a at. I'm just taking it one day at a time. I can't force myself to drink and become sick, so I don't. We are all different, so it'll be what it is I guess

I am 5 days post op, and I am still having some pain in my abdomen, and pressure between my shoulder blades. When I do sip my fluids, I feel like it gets stuck, and hurts. Has anyone else had anything like this?

First and foremost thank you for taking the time to read this, and if you have any suggestion, please throw them my way.
I had my surgery on 1/18/17 no problems other then the blessed gas pains. My SW was 247, my CW is 224; so that's 23 lbs lost. I am at a 4 weeks post-op. I think that about covers the general things.
I saw my surgeon on the 24th of January for my first week post-op check up. He gave me the green light to do puréed/soft foods for 2 weeks to move on to regular food. Honestly I just looked a him like he was crazy because that would put me at 3 weeks post-op and eat regular food so quick??!?!!??!?!?
And I can say that I am struggling with the food/protein/liquids with everything. I haven't met any of the liquid/protein goals that is required since surgery. At first it was just a struggle getting the volume of liquids in. Now, it's just a freaking struggle eating in general by following the doctor's order and moving so fast. Surprisingly enough I don't have a problem with solids so far. As long as I don't overeat or eat too fast, learn that damn lesson quick. I generally stick to eating Protein first and if I have room for veggie alright, but I try to stay away from carbs and sugar.
I did all my pre-op requirements with another surgeon's office but because of somethings that came to light, I switched doctors. The surgeon that did my surgery doesn't have an in house NUT that I can call and talk with. I am looking for my own NUT, but I need help now. I don't know what to do or where to start. The NUT from the other office, well let's just say that the visits only lasted like 5 mins when I had to see her.
I know there isn't any real questions here, but I am bit lost as hell. I seriously need help.

My pain the first two days was about a 10. Now I'm about a 4... What about you?

I loved my vanilla yogurt, and egg salad...i went crazy for egg salad for about 2 weeks straight.
@Poppybelle12 if i am remembering right, with my plan soft foods was 2 weeks post op. Your plan may be a wee bit different though. Good luck!

I'm 6-days post op. The first 2 days were hell for me. I didn't expect the pain to be so bad. I felt my best yesterday, 5-days post op. I finally walked more than 30 minutes outside. It was refreshing. Had my first bowel movement 5-days post op, & released a lot of gas. So, today I feel good too. It gets better everyday. The only thing that painful is my big incision in the left side. There are times where it stings. It's not infected, it's just a big cut they took my stomach out of.

Yesterday I started to gulp Water which is not good. I regret it after I gulp. It's just a habit of mine to down water so much before surgery. It's still hard to get the exact amounts of Protein & liquids but it gets better everyday because I'm consuming a better amount everyday.

I lost the taste for the Unjury powder. I shouldn't have bought so much. Premier is still my choice pre & post op.

Surprising I'm in a good amount of pain. I didn't expect it to end as bad being that I had a c section & I healed quick & easy but this is taking a toll on me mentally. Very sluggish, nauseous, irritable & sore. Trying to drink but eat the broth & Jello but I get so full real quick & most of the time I don't feel hungry. This is a major adjustment [emoji21]
