I am a week post op today....... Yay!!! I was 250 when I started my 2 week liquid pre op diet and am 223 today!!!! Yay!!!! So excited!!!

10 day post op down 15 pounds. Everything is looking good

Not normal but are you gulping? I get that when I drive to much.....

Yes I am, feels strange but hope it will go away with time. One other thing I'm struggling with is not stoking while eating. For example, I had a soft scrambled egg this AM n I ate it really really slow. When I was finished, I felt the food stuck as if my food was stuck at the bottom of my esophagus. I'm SO tempted to have a sip of Water to wash it down, but I just wait a while n the feeling eventually goes away. I hope this is temporary too. Does this happen to you?

Yay!!! You are doing awesome!!!

Thank u Nainai for ur quick reply. I do walk a lot but drinking is another subject. Anything that goes down my stomach is like a knife stabbing...is it normal?

It's very normal during your stage and you will find relief hopefully by day 8-10, maybe even sooner. Your body will heal.

That would e fun!!

Today I had some 100% apple juice. I was really craving it, and it helped me painlessly meet my Fluid intake. I say have some! We are even allowed to have mashed potatoes and hot Cereal.....LOTS of carbs. I think the low carb requirements start when we can eat real food.
