August post op sleevers: Check in

Hey everyone. I decided it was time for us to set up a post op section for the August folks. there are a lot of yu guys on here and I would like to be able to see how you are progressing. Any changes? Concerns? We can help one another.

I am day 9 post op and all is well with me. Trying to stay hydrated and sipping on the portein shakes. I am able to sip more now, thank goodness. I feel thirsty all the time. Even if I wake up in the middle of the night, I am sipping. My fisrt post op visirt is on the 8th and hopefully eveything will be good.

Later Losers!

I don't think they're eating solid food as of yet more like soft food

Hey all...I was sleeved Aug 29....lost 32lbs so far and ajusting to a new stomach....I have not had any complications except for the burping and gas!!! I walk alot however after this I'm gassy....and burping after meals.....read a few post and it helped alot. .thanks

I was sleeved Aug 11 and feel so great! I am now eating regular food and haven't had any issues. It seems crazy that I had this surgery only 5 weeks ago- definitely a turn around from the 1st week regrets I had!

Hello Hello Hello and Good morning! Can you tell I am feeling great? Well, the Miralax worked and I think I am going to stick with that until I can eat regular foods. I am also going to stick with the Activia too. I would rather have food to help me than some chemicals. I have deleveoped acid reflux and had a few heartburn sessions. That is the only con about my sleeve experience. Never had acid reflux like this and I have to take some chewables for this.

I am glad to see everyone heading in the right direction,DOWN! We are still in the beginning stages and still have a long journey.

Later Loser!

I was sleeved on August 27 and have only managed to lose 15 pounds. Of course I'm happy with 15...it's better than gaining that much. But I keep hearing about all these people losing so much more since their surgery. On the pre op diet, I lost 11 pounds, so I'm down a total of 26. Do you have any tips on what is making your weight loss so dramatic?

That included my preop days....I know everyone is different and we should never measure our loss to another person as there so many different factors....I do alot of walking though....it helps....and most likely it will slow down for me ...your doing great!!!
