3 days post op....(Sleeved on Monday the 17th)

Yesterday (day 2) was actually harder than day 1 post op. My throat was so sore and my chest felt tight. Today I woke up feeling better and I have actually tried two foods: 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt with breakfast and 1/3 cup cream of tomato soup. My incisions are bothering me a little more, but overall, I feel so much better. Hoping the all the others sleeved on Monday are starting to feel a little better, too. I realize I have a long way to get to my protein goal, but at least I am on my way now.

I lost 20 lbs before surgery...7 of those pounds came off during the three day clear liquid diet. I am not getting on a scale until I see my doc at the 2-week post op check up. Just didn't 't want anyone to think I lost 20 lbs 3 days after surgery.

Any way you lose it is awesome!

I too was sleeved on Monday. This afternoon I really started to feel better - could tolerate water and able to eat yogurt for lunch. Things must be looking up! I think being at home helps a lot, too.

I agree! That clear liquid diet was painful in its own way. At least now we can have things with milk, etc.

Feeling better today, I have never been this gassy in my life!

I didn't realize the chest pain was gas. I thought it was connected to my horribly swallen throat. Everything burned in my throat. It was bad.
