I had my VSG on Friday 8/17...currently on 7-10 day liquid diet. I can tolerate all that I am intaking I.e slim fast, Water, crystal lights, pudding, Jello. Has anyone else experienced this? I haven't thrown up..no nausea I feel great. Lord I hope my tool is working. I don't want to have to get anything readjusted (if that's even possible with the sleeve) talk to me. Yes I know we are all different. I need this weight to drop. Oh & I am not complaining at all!! I'm glad I'm not sick, but just would like to hear if this is common.

At 7 to 10 days out I was on mostly Protein Shakes. At least four of my meals were Protein shakes, one would be Soup (pureed) and one would be yogurt or pudding.< /p>

Hola,

I was sleeved on the 6th of August and I can drink has fast has I like hot or cold no problems. I have no problems at all getting my shakes down. If I didn't awake with gas after mu surgery I would have never of thought that I was even sleeved. I even take tablets and this is not a problem either.

I was just like you.... and even on Full liquids day 4 no problem with any liquid intake - Protein, pudding or any liquid quantity although I did feel like I had enough pudding yogurt type stuff after about 2 oz.... we are just some of the ones who have it easy. Checked with 2 doctors and both said it was not a problem liquid goes \ through sleeve quickly so you are fine. When I started pureed... tuna, cottage cheese.... yep I had been sleeved. Totally limited intake.

I was almost a month post-op before I puked the first time (it was way too greasy). Some have an easier time of it, it doesn't mean your sleeve isnt' working.

Yup, there are some that have it fairly easy. I had no gas and woke up thinking it had not been done. Went home very next day from the hospital. Never had issues taking in liquids. Guess Just lucky. I am a slow loser so maybe that balances things out. Enjoy it.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
