  1. My NUT said I can have wine or a shot but not for at least the first month or two. It should not replace a meal.
  2. Me!! I can't tell if I'm hungry or feeling something diff. So I just eat something. Happens every few hours. Although I can also go hours without eating
  3. They don't have to say they had surgery cause its none of our business; however, I don't think it's right to be charging folks and using their weight loss to do it. I would send a personal message and let them know you know and how you feel. Then just let it be.
  4. I coughed up blood that night after having surgery. They said it was just from the staple line and that it was fine. But def double check to be sure.
  5. My doc said to start doing whatever I wanted but it seems everyone thinks I should take it slow. At what week did you all decide to do weights for toning? I'll def start my squats...
  6. What week can we eat cucumber? I love cucumbers!
  7. Thanks everyone! So no toning on everything other than stomach?
  8. Anyone walking yet? Any other exercises good for toning? My body is starting to feel super soft. I've been walking 1.5 miles 4 days per week.
  9. It's damn near impossible the first few days. Like the person above me says, closer to two weeks. I'm 11 days post op and I'm still struggling with water although I can get my protein shakes in no problem. 64oz is a goal to work up to. Don't force it, you'll only make yourself miserable. Remember all liquids count towards the goal. Warm liquids go down better also...
  10. Hi! I was sleeved July 18 and I'm from CT!
  11. What do you mean by regular food? Like anything you want? How did it feel the first time eating after 6 days?
  12. I'm 7 days out and I am having a hard time sipping water also. Broth is a bit better and I can do an oz or two if yogurt before it gets painful. All I can muster in a day smh
  13. How can you tell when you're full? I'm not even hungry so I surely can't tell when I'm full. I am getting this intense gas type pain after a few sips or spoonful of yogurt... How much are you able to eat at 7 days?
  14. I can only get in a 16oz bottle in an entire day and that's it! Is this normal?
  15. A revision? Ugh! Sorry to hear that but at least they caught it while you were still in the hospital ya know? I can barely drink anything. It's horrible for me right now. I'm having so many mixed emotions but I know in a week or two I'll feel so much better. You hang in there too! When did you get sleeved?
  16. The first 24 hours was the worst I ever felt in my life!! The gas felt like a constant heart attack and they couldn't sustain the nausea. I was throwing up blood etc. after I fought through it I started to feel better. Not to mention I still had to walk. Sore, weak and tired now but on pain meds. So I feel good once I have that. Just got home a few hours ago.
  17. I have so many emotions as I get up to get ready for the hospital. Nervous and excited!! Eeeekkkkk!!!!!!
  18. How did you feel when you woke up?
