Hi everyone i just gotten my sleeve on july 6th and so far today i have been ate 3 small bowls of chicken broth (not all at once) 3 sugar free popsicles, a mashed banana it was almost like baby food and now i just had me some fat free yogurt.. not too mention 2 protien shakes and alot of water.. i think im eating too much i just feel soo hungry idk if its just because im so use to eating or what but i really do miss regular foods i feel like eating a big chicken strip or something but i just gotta remember how bad i wanted this and i have been struggling with my weight for as long as i can remember...it all started with me having a problem with my thyroid but yeah so am i eating to much in 1 day? i wish this was easier for me.

Sounds like WAY too much to me. You are only 3 days out! At this point I was on liquids only, so no banana or yogurt. I was lucky to get in one protein shake, sipped on throughout the day, sips of water, and maybe 1/2 cup of broth total split into about 3 servings. Your stomach has just undergone a MAJOR trauma, and you have a very fresh staple and suture line; please do not overdue it and risk tearing it!

I say this out of pure concern and not to be rude, but how can you be already mourning over food and wanting a chicken strip? You are only 3 days out, you have a very long road ahead of you. I can honestly say that I did not mind being on the liquid and mushy phases, I knew it was all temporary and part of the process. I think it is a little concerning that you are already, at this early stage, thinking about what you can't have. Enjoy the process, it does work. I hope you do not take offense to this, I truly do mean it out of support. I think a positive attitude has everything to do with our success. Good luck to you, and remember we are all here to help when we can

thanks for being honest i also have a habit of eating when im bored but have been trying to walk to avoid that im going to do better and try not too eat too much thanks for your support

I agree with KristinaRN sounds like a lot of food for 1 day and 3 days post op. we tend to eat when bored. What can you do to take your mind off eating? Concentrate on liquids say no to those bananas.

Hang in there and try to plan out tomorrow

I took my pain pills and slept when I was 3days out.

Seriously though...you are moving too fast on your food progression. How does your surgeon want you to progress on your food? You should be following that advice. What I was told was the object was to put the least amount of pressure on suture line in stomache, cause otherwise could cause leaks or other complications.

I've attached my food progression list I had to follow.

I am 11 days post op and I am having a hard time getting in 11oz of a protein shake much less the water, broth, etc, etc. I get nauseous and my tummy gets bloated and hurts like crazy if I eat more than 2 oz at a time. I had to buy some protein "bullets" today to try and get in my protein quota =( I'm not sure how your tummy is handling this much, maybe you should call the doc and ask?

Wolfgirl1978 Thank You so much for that! that helps alot

Nice :-)

I was lucky to get in a couple cups of gatoraid- take it easy on your new little tummy- its the twisting and turning of the digestion of the food you put in that harms the staple line- take it easy girl

I had surgery July 5th and if I see food it comes to mind I wish I could have it but I know I can't. Plus honestly I'm not even hungry. Chicken broth is so soothing to eat and goes down so nice and warm I am shocked you have the want to eat/hunger. We need to pay attention to our stomach not our brains we can get thru this
