9 Days Post Surgery

I had the sleeve performed on Oct 30 and had to stay in the hospital for two days. I went In weighing 175 and according to my new scale I am at 163. I am still basically on fluids but I've been feeling hungry for a couple of days. I'm not on proteins yet my Dr starts that at 2 weeks is this normal?

Hi, I'm new here but am 6 days out and thought I'd reply. I am on full liquids with protein supplement and was told by my physician to start it on day 3. I know everyone is different though. Were you told why not start it? I think that the protein is helping me a lot.

i also had my sleeve done 10/30 and been on fluids and been feeling very hungry i went out and bought me the muscle light protein shake and has help with being hungry i start phase 2on Friday can't way..

The doctor has stages that you are suppose to follow, for the first two weeks you are only suppose to be on fluids. Then weeks 2-4 is when we start on small amounts of protein
