Im glad to hear your doing well! When you say 'eat' what is a daily schedule for you as far as fluids and protein go?

20 pounds in 5 days that is awesome....so happy for you...I need to increase my protein tomorrow

I had my sleeve Sept 16! Recovery is going better then I even imagined! I previously had the lap band placed January 2009 & had to have removed May 2013 due to slippage. The sleeve has been ten times easier surgery/recovery then my band. My surgery was also more invasive due to had to remove scar tissue that was caused from band placement/slippage/removal.

I was sleeved on the 10th.... And have been off pain meds for a week... No nausea at all... And my stomach is just about healed. Still on liquids for another day... Then I start puréed on Tuesday... Before I had the surgery I was all worked up and nervous but now that it's said and done I know it was not bad at all. Try and get some anti nausea meds from the doctor to take before and after surgery it helps. The worst part of the entire thing was the pre op diet for 2 days before... You have to drink plenty of clear liquids in order to feel full. Good luck to everyone on this journey you can do it!
