Ok, I just got my sleeve one week ago. I have been feeling anxious about the hole food restriction thing and feeling like I will never be able to enjoy a good meal again because I can only eat two bites of my food for life. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE HELPPPPP!

1. What are your typical days meals and how much of it can you eat? (PICTURES WOULD BE FABULOUS IF POSSIBLE)

2. Do you every wish you could eat more than what you are eatting and get depressed over it?

3. Do you regret the surgery or are you happy you did it?

4. How many months/years post sleeve are you?

Only one week- your stomach tube is still swollen small as a straw. I had surgery on Monday and will be on liquids three weeks. I can't imagine what you are eating.

1. What are your typical days meals and how much of it can you eat? (PICTURES WOULD BE FABULOUS IF POSSIBLE)

Today I had two ounces of Water with my Vitamin, prevacid, and b12. That took me an hour. I spent the next two hours sipping an11 ounce Protein shake with 20 g Protein. From then until noon I sipped on an 8 ounce glass of caffeine free iced tea. At noon I had ham broth that my hubby made me from the thanksgiving ham, 8 ounces, 2 g protein and almost 2 hours. I got distracted and only had 2 sips over the next hour. I drank 4 ounces of special k pink lemonade protein water, 1-2g protein over the next 2 hours, and had a 2 ounce frozen juice bar. For dinner I am having 4 ounces pinto bean juice with 2 ounces broth, 1 g protein. I am almost finished an hour later. Later tonight I will have another protein shake with milk to get the rest of my protein.

I know the next few weeks will be me sipping constantly and getting protein to maintain my energy and fluids.

2. Do you every wish you could eat more than what you are eatting and get depressed over it?

I do wish I could eat more, but I also researched thoroughly and knew my doctors expectations going in. I know I will want to eat, but I can survive this for the final result.

3. Do you regret the surgery or are you happy you did it?

I am happy. The pain is less than I expected. The hunger is gone (not the craving to chew and eat especially when I smelled the Thanksgiving pies cooking.) I am so looking forward to Christmas dinner.

4. How many months/years post sleeve are you?

Only 3 days.
