I have had times of regret too. So dont think your alone! Even though I can eat n drink fine, I still have doubts and regrets. Maybe your one of the people whos bodies take a bit longer to heal. Just try n keep ur head up through the hard times. I wish u the best!

I'm trying but my husband keeps pushing protein on me and all I want is water or anything to keep me hydrated. I just can't seem to take in the isopure.

I had surgery on 11/18 spent a day and a half in the hospital. I had no real pain just mild discomfort, I couldn't take pain medicine cause it made me gag. Fluids went down fine and now I'm on soft foods. I started at 413 at weigh in and now I'm 384.

Lately all I see are people with issues.... I'm glad u been good....... I was sleeved on 11/20 barely any pain........ Liquids been good.......... Soft foods so far so good..... I haven't had any problems......... My incisions are looking good.... Tape already off.......... I was starting to think why am I doing so good and others are having it hard....

Yeah I was surprised this was my first time in the hospital and first surgery and I was expecting the worst but it turned out really well. I actually had the surgery the same time as my mom and she has had a really good recovery too.

That's great.... I'm so glad to know their other people like me.......... This has been great so far.....

hey girl! I'm with you in the weight loss. I've lost 16 lbs and it seems to keep going up and down the same 4-5 lbs. getting soooo frustrated! I'm sorry we are in the same boat but I'm glad I'm not the only one. Especially when you see how much others have lost in the first month. But I guess it's too late to turn back now!

Yup! Same here! Sleeved Nov 4Th and down 15 lbs from surgery date 34 lbs total from pre-op diet. I think I hit the" three week platue" didn't loss anything this last week till today, 2 lbs. I know exactly how you both feel. Well good luck on the month of December.

What are you eating at this point? Need some ideas!

I was sleeved on 11/20. Spent five nights in the hospital with diabetic ketoacidosis, in the ICU. Am ten days out, am eating pureed food, have from the start. Blood sugars are insanely low, off three meds, hope to be off a few more soon. I eat three meals a day of pureed Protein, two cups of milk, 64 ounces of Water. My tummy looks like a war zone and I still have pain from incisions. Up and about and have incredible energy now!!! Best decision EVER!!

Sleeved the 19th lost 18 first week. Just started softs foods yesterday before that all Protein shakes 2 day 50 gram each (I don't do those 12 gram ones) liquids no problem clear urine stream daily up all night too:). Sugars drop nothing less than amazing. Energy high started 1.5 miles walks yesterday. So far Miraculous!

I was sleeved on Nov 20th. I have lost 18lbs since surgery. Almost 40 since the pre op diet.. I am actually feeling kinda fat so its time for a few mile walk with my sister... Hope you are all well! I feel great, sore, but great!

I was sleeved on the 26th. I get some fairly painful cramps when I sip on any liquid, but I've read that will pass soon. I'm able to drink enough liquid and get my 60-80 grams of protein. Can't wait for purée stage so I can mix in some flavor to the diet. So far down 26 lbs since preop diet started.
