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!

Can't wait to be off of liquids

I was sleeve on 21st of August, and I'm drop 28 pounds. I can't wait to be off liquid.

Hi Everyone had my on the 21st of August. So I'm about 2 weeks post, feel like longer but I'm down 28 pounds.

Sleeved August 22 and doing really well! 17lbs since surgery.Had a little pain and nausea post op but as soon as I was hooked up to the pain pump that all went away Unfortunately, I got a TERRIBLE headache that lasted all 2 days in the hospital! Liquids for 2 weeks and now I'm on soft. I will honestly say the head hunger has been the hardest thing so far, which actually surprised me. Now at almost 3 weeks out, it has gotten MUCH better. Trying different pureed food, but honestly I have pretty good restriction, so I can really only eat 3 Oz at a time. Doing pretty good getting my fluids in though. Walking, eating as much protein as I can and excited to see the weight coming off! I feel great!

Sleeved August 26. No issues. Going to start working out tomorrow. 14 lbs down. I'm hoping exercise will help.

Hi everyone I am 1 month post o today have a lost of 28 lbs I am happy with that. I am able to eat regular food I tried still can't do it no appetite when I do I feel like I have something stuck in my throat. So I will stay with fluid and real soft food right now for awhile. Hope everyone else who is able to eat regular food is doing better than me

Can't concentrate on how much weight in losing because first I had a problem having a BM now I have urinary retention.. They say it's common but damn... any oddities that can happen I seem to be the victim of... Sorry not tryna be a Debbie downer it's just frustrating...

Had my 3 week check up yesterday. I've lost 22 pounds since my pre op appointment and I'm very close to onederland!

I'm cleared to eat a bigger variety with nothing crunchy, nothing spicy, and nothing that has to be cut with a knife. Went to costco yesterday and found some frozen tilapia in pesto sauce, very yummy!

I'm supposed to continue with one protein drink per day but I just can't get them down anymore so I'm trying to get all of my protein without them. Got some protein bars, maybe that will help.

I got sleeved 8/8/14 ... I'm grateful to have lost 25 lbs. I have 25 more to go. I'm still not able to eat constantly especially the protein intake that's recommended. I had the worst heartburn last night! I didn't sleep and I'm still lacking energy to function.

Sooooo my surgeon thinks I'm dehydrated I have to go in to his office early tomorrow for blood work and other stuff before before my initial appointment.. Only me goodness

I was sleeved on 8/15 and just like you the scale is stuck I'm hopeful like everyone keep saying that it will move I'm working out as well and finally consuming what I believe is enough calories 1,000-1,100 per day and still no movement but the scale has no other choice but to move in the right direction ..... Frustrated

My balance is off too
