Wow that's a long time on clear liquids! My doc says to eat whatever you can tolerate once you are out of the hospital. It's up to me to experiment and see what my tummy can handle... But I'll bet you'll lose a ton of weight this first month :)

. A month of full is a lot. I have liquids this week. I did eat the inside of 2 deviled eggs today. Happy Easter. It sat well on my stomach.

I had surgery on Monday and I feel so so! I do have one incision that hurts like the dickens and it is really sore to get up and down. I have only been able to get about 24 oz of Water in a day. I constantly feel like it stays in my chest. It is uncomfortable so I don't like to do it. Any idea when this stops?

Yes the one on my right side hurts like hell and that happens to be the incision she pulled the stomach through. I really haven't eaten much but have been able to drink 40 ounces. How do u know when ur sleeve is full.

You'll feel full. Second week, u can start to feel it out.

My doc wants 2 weeks of liquids, 1 week puréed foods, 1 week soft foods & then normal foods. This is so your new stomach can heal. I am curious about everyone else's regimen. It's weird how everyone is so different.

I think mine is similar to yours.

I'm on clears for a month. Nothing you can't see through. It's a lot but maybe in the end it will help. And I will appreciate full liquids even more

I am 3 days post op. I have such bad gas and it hurts to get up and down. My surgery was on the 17th and I went home yesterday.. My dr has everyone on CLEARS for a month. Its hard to find things to add unflavored Protein Powder to. Day three and I'm already bored. I cant have FULL liquids until may 17th..

That's crazy!! I was on clear liquids for 3 days then super runny full liquids for 2 weeks. Now soft foods, which I've been on 1.5 weeks.

I'm down 30lbs since my one week prior to surgery pre op diet. I was sleeved 3/25. Starting weight 262, current weight 232. I pretty much eat whatever I want with the exception of shrimp, hamburger meat, solid fruits (can only eat bananas and fruits in juice).

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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?

      April Surgery
      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! 😞
