I had my sleeve done on may the 8th 2013.. woke up in alot of pain, my dr. Dont use the pain pump anyways, walked and have been walking everyday. . Fluids and Protein shakes are going down easy.. I can easily drink 4 oz in 15 minutes.. I have not had that full feeling everyone has talked about, and had what I thought to be hunger pains..but I keep being reassured its prolly just the acids in my stomach..I start my soft pureed foods on the 20th and was told thats when the full part will catch up to you.. my starting weight was 262lbs.. I have my first apt post op the23rd. Will keep you updated!

Hang in there. It does get better and you'll definitely "feel" the fullness when beginning pureed foods.

Thanks!
