I was sleeved 3/26/13. I feel pretty good. I have slight discomfort getting up and down from some of my incision sites but very mild discomfort. That's about it!

I was sleeved 3/25 and I feel great. When I start to feel weak or lightheaded I have a cup of boullion and feel better immediately (that feeling is because of lack of sodium). I am able to drink as I did prior to surgery (I was not a guzzler or chugger before). I have tolerated everything I've tried so far (I'm on full liquids til Monday but had an egg yesterday and was able to eat half of it). Very much looking forward to refried Beans and the famous riccotta bake.

I was very nervous about eating after reading so many posts from folks who can't keep anything down or can just eat 2 teaspoons and they're done. I really feel for them, but that has not been my experience so far at all. In addition to the other things I'm eating, I have 2 Premier Protein shakes a day and all my liquids as well. I am having a bit of a reflux issue, which I did not have prior to surgery so I will call my Dr on Monday to find out which ppi I should take. But even that's not horrible and one tums usually takes care of it.

I hope that was helpful and best of luck to you.
