Amazing! It’s great to hear this side as well thanks for sharing. I think it provides a good balance. It hasn’t been all bad for me Infact I think it’s been mostly good. The pain was intense and still comes from time to time (I’m nearly 2 weeks post op) but that’s probably because I’m doing a bit more with 4 young children. I don’t know how you’re managing to hit your protein goals. I still struggle with mine but I’m not yet at the purée stage so watch this space. Water is especially difficult to hit 700ml never mind the 1.2litres I’ve been told I need daily. I’m definitely hitting my 90 minute walking target so that’s a plus. And I am starting to feel my jeans fall so an additional yay!!

Oh dear sounds like you had a rough few days. Glad to hear it’s all mostly resolved. I only had gas Infact I still have gas and constantly fart like a trouper. Had surgery on the 11th and still struggling to hit water and general intake goals. I also had a hernia repair so maybe that’s part of it. All in all, I’m loving the new found control over food. Fingers crossed it lasts forever! All the best to you too x

Slowly feeling better thanks. Yes it hurts to drink and I’m still on the liquid phase so really struggling to get fluids up. My dietician has been nagging ?. Looking forward to purée stage. Are you doing better with the soups?

Hi, I’m new to this site but thought I must reply when I saw your entry. I had the sleeve on the 02/11/23 and they found a hiatal hernia too and repaired it! Recovery has also been slow but it’s happening. I’m forcing myself to keep moving even though all I want to do is hug the duvet. How are you doing?
