Looking for start a mini support group for sleevers who plan to get surgery done in December of this year. I figure its only two months away so we should meet up now and plan for it Lemme know if anybody is interested!

I had my sleeve done 12/18!!! Now I'm just trying to focus on protien and fluid intake. It's a bit overwhelming. It's hard when I'm not hungry at all!

Keep it up. You need the fluids and protein.....

Thanks susan909 I found drinking from a water bottle doesn't cause as much discomfort or gas as drinking from a cup so I have been able to really increase fluids today

That's great . Spoons were tough for me to use at first, got to much air in. I'm at the puréed stage now. It's going pretty well. More options anyway.

Had my surgery on December 10, was in the hospital seven days. Was very sick most of December, getting better each day. I still cannot eat as i get very sick. I just drink my Protein shakes and Water. I am trying very hard to introduce foods but i just cant seem to keep it down. Am i the only one who has had this much trouble?
