My Dr was very strict no Bars or Pudding first 2 Weeks .I did a few Years of research 90 % of the Surgeons keep diet liquids first 2 Weeks some permit jello , Puddings .I read recently that someone was allowed heavier food right after Surgery good luck with that !!! All I can say good way to rupture your sutures. -
I had my Surgery 8 Months ago just recently I’ve gotten flavor back .Had 0 flavor after Surgery same with smell weird I know .

They most likely don’t want you to lose because your BMI is in the correct range if it where to fall to low the insurance company will deny the surgery.I was only allowed to lose 5 lbs had my Surgery in May .All insurance companies are different. -
Sometimes matters if I didn’t chew well enough.Im 8 Months out have never thrown up cuss I don’t push that gotta eat that last piece button .Try never to lie down to fast , I have had food try and come back up .

Getting nervous and starting to freak out

With the sleeve the Dr cuts out the receptor that makes you Hungry you will not be Hungry.This comes back in a Year so they tell me .Im 8 Months out ,I don’t care what you take you will lose your Hair .I started at 5 Months only lasted a Month .My Dr said it’s better to lose your Hair a few Months in vereses right away. -
I’m 8 Months out 70 lbs lost feeling awesome.Can say that every day is a struggle to eat ,you will all understand this state as your Journey continues.

I know everyone is different but I had only 1 Day of discomfort and that was the ride Home after Surgery.I had 0 shoulder pain or gas pain if that’s what you wanna call it .My Gallbladder Surgery the Year before I was 100% more uncomfortable compared to the sleeve

I like the Preimier Chocolate over Ice yum
-
Okay I’m 8 Months out I like the Premier Protein seems to have the best flavor.My Dr doesn’t allow anything gummy until 6 Months out because of sticking and digestion.I use the flint stones chewables after I eat something.The bigger swallow ones I can’t digest ,early on I did use the Patches but they get a tad expensive good luck
-
I received Tylenol /codeine only needed 1 for the ride Home . Had gallbladder Surgery the Year before ,gallbladder was 100 x worse than my sleeve .I never even had Shouygas pain lots with the Gallbladder though .

My Dr had me do mushy foods 1 Week prior .My advice is get up and walk ASAP will make you feel much better 👍 -

Lots of luck stay positive walk chew and Drink 👍 -
Crazy how much life revolves around food it’s kinda funny but when your eating you never think twice about it 😂I recommend going for walks , reading , cleaning stuff getting rid of the old you and welcoming the new Healthier you 👍

I liked my Broths warmed was soothing in a weird way keep up the good work stay hydrated

You need to concentrate on you Period ! We as women forget about our selfs ! Drink , go for a Walk , go through a room , read , do a Puzzle .What I found interesting was how much life revolves around food crazy .Find other things to do but make you the #1 .

I did eggs I think 3 weeks out agreed every Dr is different.I don’t believe it’s safe to push that suture line with foods to early even myself I’m 7 Months out and the Dr says your stomach is still healing so chew well
-
Can’t believe there allowing you to Eat not good .99% of all Surgery there is only liquids for the first 2 Weeks then go to purée and mashed .Be very careful you don’t end up with a leak or blockage .

Stayed over 1 night also got up right away .Only had 1 Percocet the next Day on my way Home .Had my Surgery in May down 70 lbs feeling awesome.

No regrets 👍 I never had Shoulder pain ,Had my Gallbladder out last Year did have the shoulder pain then not with the VSG

Darci kendall replied to AchieveGoals's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
