Thanks for that. I'm at week 3 1/2 and frustrated, getting sick more often, etc. I'm really glad to hear I should see the light soon. Thanks Kinnymom!

I totally agree! I'll be four weeks out this coming tuesday (sugery 8/21) and today I finally feel like its all coming together. I feel good and am able to eat a variety of foods. puddings are hopefully just a blissful memory!

For all the new sleevers hang on and have hope. The first three weeks for me were the worst . It hurt to drink and to eat . I was depressed hit a stall last week that I still haven't came off of but it's ok. This weekend has been the best I've felt since surgery . I was able to have a selection of foods although in small amounts I had watermelon and seafood salad with crackers' date=' I even ate a salad On a down note I am completly lactose intolerant but it's ok. O yeah I had one egg with provolone cheese and salsa and it was yummy . I hope this encourages someone who having a difficult time transitioning By the way I've lost 39 pounds in a month down 3 dress sizes ))[/quote']
