I am excited for you! I am not going to lie, for me, week 1 was...well...I refer to it as my hell week. Not because of the surgery site itself, but because of the gas discomfort. Heating pads were my savior, though! And, due to the swelling in my stomach, I struggled getting fluids down that first week. So, I was really weak. Popsicles (nice, cold sugar free popsicles) saved me. Ice in general went down real good. I did much better week 2, and by the end of week 3 I was 100%. Everyone really is different though. The time will pass before you know it and you'll be loving your sleeve! Good Luck!

Thank you so much!!!

Glad to hear it Curvy:). We have very similar numbers across the board.

I am just beginning to feel human this week. I go in for the dr. Visit tomorrow and can't wait to be released to more foods. Totally over the cat food diet!!!

I've had a lot of trouble with shakes and lactose intolerance. Diarrhea all the time, ugh. This week my energy seems to finally be reappearing and I don't feel like #%£¥

anymore, so hoping I've turned the corner. It's been pretty rough.

The first 2/3 weeks were tough, week 1 being the toughest. By the end of week 3 I felt like myself again, but I had to really work it to get those calories in. Gatorade helped a lot. I've already weaned myself off, but when calories were hard to get in, it really helped with dizziness and the world going a little black at times. I've been eating every 2-3 hours. I have the same problem with the shakes (but hey, all I can say is that at least I am regular now--LOL!), I just make sure to drink them when I am at home. However, I find myself napping and extremely tired by the end of the day, especially on my early A.M. workout days (I'm up to 4 miles--yay me!). On my non workout days I get in about 700 calories, and workout days I get in about 900 calories. My doctor released me this week to full diet, but so many things are hard to get in. I have found some sliders though, like cantaloupe and (believe it or not) beef Jerky. I know its high in sodium, but they kept me awake on my 11 hour drive to LA. I wish you continued success and I hope you get your energy back sooner than later! Good luck to you!
