2 weeks out -- intro

Hello. This is my first post, but I've been reading for a while and what I read helped me pick a surgeon, talk to my family, and is helping me get through recovery.

So far so good -- in fact, so far so great. I was walking after surgery, never felt nausea or much pain, and just generally feel fine. Clear liquids were tough, but thick liquids are fine, especially since I'm thinning refried beans with chicken broth and calling them a thick liquid!

My husband and I were sleeved 11 July with Dr. Aceves and are 2 weeks out today. We don't live in the United States, but we do spend a month here every summer and will be leaving on 27 July.

I've read so many old posts about people freaking out about this and that -- stretching their sleeves, stalling, what to eat -- and almost every time their current ticker shows they're losing weight and doing great. I'm trying to be chilled out about it based on how well it seems almost everyone does.

My only problem right now is that I'm so tired by the end of the day that I can sleep for 12 hours easily. I'm not really worried about it since i just had surgery, but it is driving my mother-in-law crazy. Since we're leaving in 2 days, I'm trying not to worry about it!

I want to thank those of you who post since everything I have read has been so helpful.
