I only have one incision that still has a steri strip on it. I'm 8 days out. I'm also looking forward to being able to chew food again! I think I have another week of full liquids. Seems like forever. I see my surgeon tomorrow. Maybe I can convince him to move my diet along.

I was sleeved jan3. Surgery weight 190. Current weight 177. I am very pleased with results

I had my surgery on the 11th. Down 13 lbs in 6 days.

I have been very fortunate and have had no problems at all. (Don't want to jinx myself) I walked on the beach while in MX' date=' went shopping at the mall on MX the day after, came home, cook dinner every night for my family of 6. I've been on a soft/puréed diet since the day left the hospital.

I feel pretty good![/quote']

What beach did you walk? Who was your Dr? What hospital?

Wow way to go girl that a lot. I had just loss 6 pound since January 8. And already back to work since Monday. But it seem I am loosing slowly. Are u still on cower liquid?

I was on a week preop full liquid, a week clear liquid and now on a week a full liquid again

Yikes! That's a lot of staples. I only had steri strips under the bandages thankfully. I don't think they will be too painful to remove though. It may sting if I remember right. Hope it goes ok for you.

I had about the same amount of staples.. They didn't hurt one bit to take out!!

I had surgery on Jan 8th, and I'm down 21 lbs so far. No complications and the only real pain was from gas. Once that was resolved, no pain at all. The left side is still tender and I cant sleep on it, which is a bummer. Got the staples out yesterday, yea! I wanted to take them out myself

I feel better everyday, have had no vomiting or dumping. Thank god. Going back to work on Tuesday and I'm ready.

The recipes shared on this site are super helpful, make sure to check that thread out.

Sleeved on 1/9. Down 14lbs! The weight coming off is so exciting - but i am DYING trying to get the appropriate amount of protein. i had a week of clear liquids and now i am on my week of full liquids. i am so tired of protein shakes, it is killing me. i am only getting about 50g of protein a day - my doctor said i should get 60g to 80g but i am already barely choking down 2 shakes, i can't imagine anything else.

My steri strips came of at a week out. My dr said to take them off then if they hadn't fallen off yet. I was allowed to be on. Soft foods at 2weeks. I stay on Soft foods until 28 days. In my soft food phase I am allowed soft dark meat chicken.

I was sleeved on the 2nd and am down 20 lbs even since my sleeve. It has been a smooth journey so far. No nausea or pain. I'm feeling good!

Have you tried the protein in juice form. Pretty good so far. 42 grams per serving.
