Well just got done walking , took lortab elixir before. Day of Surgery I crashed, heart beat got low so the put a heart shunt in, I'm normal now I'm on the clear liquids till Sunday then go to mushy foods . First time I'm not hungry and I don't regret having surgery, I have a lot of water gain but its coming off.

I was told by my doctor anything full liquids or anything that is easily smashed with a fork' date=' I could of had mash potatoes but I changed my mind[/quote']

Scares me! My doc had a patient eat mashed potatoes and get a leak. I'm paranoid! Lol

Hey I also got Sleeved on the 19th June in Sydney Australia. I am still suffering shoulder tip pain but better than in Hospital, I cannot eat more than a 3 teaspoons of puréed Chicken soup so I'm going to make another batch of soup but more brothy and light. I started this journey @ 156kg on the 5th March and weighed in on the morning of the surgery the 19th of June @ 146kg now I weigh 138kg.. The funny thing is I don't feel 18kg lighter..!! All in all I feel positive am doing my darnedest to walk as much as I can and I cannot wait for FIJI in September..

A year from now I will be able to have crunchy foods like a cracker or no steak for a year, the canned chicken you can smash it to nothing in your mouth quite soft, but yes do what your doctor says to do. I can never have no carbonated beverage again.

James good luck to you and I'm sure you will make your journey.. I hope you'd pain goes away

I also had my sleeve done on the 19th! Great to see so many people here with the same surgery date. Hope everyone is feeling well, looking forward to updates on your progress. Good luck with the pain, hope it eases up soon.

Hit the wrong button) I'm bloated, I passed a little gas, but in my bed my belly hurts to roll over on my side, took some acid reflux meds now I'm in the recliner try to get some shut eye

I'm a 19er too.

Fiji sounds amazing.

Wow! I can't believe you get to have all that food!! I'm on liquids for 3 weeks. Then soft food for 3 weeks.

I was wrong, on my discharge papers it said FULL liquids / soft mushy foods.. For 3 wks , sugar free pudding, light yogurt , low fat cream Soups, milk and Protein supplements shakes (then below the paper it said also include foods that are smashable with a fork .. After your posting made me read the main book and it said different .. So I called the Doctor office and she told me not to do that again.. I'm was confused and I hope I didn't lead anyone in the wrong direction.. Now I hope I didn't cause damage to my self .... Sorry

Hi. New to this, but I also had my sleeve done on the 17th. Have my post op appt with doc today. I am feeling great and am surprised at how easy the recovery has been (for me at least). I had gallbladder surgery back in Dec and it was rough! I am so excited to start this new journey in my life!

Mitz! Be careful!! I'm sure you are ok. I'm on full liquids and they have to be able to pour through a strainer. Metal wire strainer.

Sugar free Popsicles

nectar protein, really good!

All broths

Diluted soups and strained

Skim or 1% milk with no sugar added instant Breakfast

Any crystal lights with Water

Low calorie Gatorade

I hope you have it all figured out now. Good luck!!

One week and 2 day check in!

I've lost 12 lbs! Doing great! I'm so happy! Feeling good, looking good!

Best thing I ever did! Even with dealing with head hunger, would not trade this experience for anything...

I have to ask... Does anyone have hunger pain. Like empty stomach pain??? I am no where near hungry but it feels like hunger pain! The pain meds help.... Will this go away when my stomach is healed? I was sleeved on the 19th.

I have no hunger but like a thirst , I still have pain in the stomach like nausea kind of, I was sleeved the 19. For me this all is easily overcome, I hear some say mind hunger. But from people that had it and like 3 yrs in they said it will pass.

Just a shoot out from another June 19ther! Glad you're doing better! I'm feeling more and more likely old self everyday...not too much pain left and walking alot. Hope everybody keeps doing well!
