You'll do fine. The first day is tough but they keep you well situated overnight.

I would be all nervous right now but honestly I'm too exhausted and mentally drained to be nervous.

1 week post op & I'm down 23 lbs since beginning the pre-op diet & down 8 lbs since surgery!!

that's my first "stats" post lol. I'm doing pretty well. I'm not getting my full 64 oz of Fluid in but I get so close. I don't think I'm getting all of my Protein in either but during this 1st week my Dr wanted me to focus more on fluids so starting tomorrow I'm going to really focus on trying to get as much of both as I can. Today was an odd day for "eating" for me. Things would sound good until I tried them then I didn't want them. I'm still on shakes & Soups mostly but have tried some pureed things & so far there's no physical problems with them, I just really don't want to eat I think. I'm in very little pain, more like soreness & discomfort lol. Its all very tolerable though. I just took some adult liquid Tylenol & mainly took it so that I will sleep good tonight. I'm also having a cup of sleepy time herbal tea so hopefully I'll relax good tonight.

I broke down and bought some outfits as I threw out all my big clothes a couple of years ago. I gained 60 pounds when my gastric band was removed last December. I just got my gastric sleeve and I am anxiously waiting the day I can wear my skinny clothes again.

      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! 😞

      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.
