I had surgery on Dec 30. I had no pain no gas no discomfort at all!! Anesthesia was my only issue. Once that was out of my system, it was like I had no surgery!! I can drink as much Water as I want with no discomfort. I am taking 85 grams of Protein per day, Wondering if the docs really performed surgery on me.....

Lucky, I thought the same but found out the hard way. It was almost too good to be true! Be cautious and follow plan!

I did not have complications from my surgery and was able to take large swallows without any problems. However, I would suggest you slow down a little. You are newly sleeved and your body needs time to heal. Follow your doctors plan. As for the restrictions...you will start to feel the sleeve when you start eating solid foods.

Hi. We should be buddies on our progress since my surgery was December 30. Like you, I have no problem at all and I can drink anything with no problem. I hope it will continue this way once we start soli food etc. Have you lost any lbs?

I too had surgery on Dec. 30- but I have had a few problems here and there. The first few days I had horrible gas pains and vomited about once a day. Then after day 3 I have been great. I do feel restriction sometimes after eating Jello. I can drink liquid with no issue. Today, i began full liquid. I was a bit nervous at first but had no issues. So far, I've lost 16lbs since the day of surgery. :)

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
