I have an awesome post but I'm looking to share and receive this journey with other June 1st sleevers.

How's your pre liquid diet coming along? For me it varies, sometime through out the day it's easier then it might get harder. I think the hard part is when I start cooking dinner and my mouth starts to water. After i doing some chores I just don't have any energy for the rest of the day. Starting weight 285, current weight 260/259 couldn't tell on scale.

The pain in my right abdominal is pretty bad. I left the hospital last night. Technically this is just day two out of surgery. Walking and standing hurt the most. Were you guys in as much pain a few days ago? My surgery was on Thursday.

How high did your fever get? I run a low one every evening or night. I've been pushing more fluids at that time in case it's dehydration.

I've had one every day between 99.3 and 100.5... Dr. Said it was just my body fighting off infection. Nothing to worry about, my hydration and staple line looked good.

I've been trying to get protein shake down but I feel so full, not so much stomach but like after you have thanksgiving dinner and are ready for a nap. I get about 2oz down. Anyone start on shakes yet?

My Dr. Put me on shakes right away, I do them 3oz every 2 hours, and try to get in 5 to 8oz clear on the off hour. It's rough, but I'm getting better every day.

I know I can push more but just scared to stretch out stomach or over due it and not heal. I'll keep pushing a little more each time. Thanks

I didn't get shakes in until day 5. It's a struggle. I overdid it yesterday and have felt gassy and bloated all night. Backing off tomorrow and taking it slower. Sleeve is teaching me what to do and not do!

How's everyone doing this week? Can't wait for soft foods starting monday, tired of shakes. I still don't have great energy.

I have to wait until Wednesday to change my diet, that's when I go back to Dr. I went today, down 34 lbs total, 14 since surgery.still fighting the air bubbles every time I drink...makes me wonder how much air I was swallowing before surgery.

I had my post op w doc yesterday: SW 284, CURRENT 248. I'm 36 LB DOWN TOTAL

Hi! Is that since the surgery or total?

36 lb down total.

12 lb down since surgery, 12 lb in 12 days.

How's everyone doing with soft proteins? Share your favorite recipe or food. Im already getting board of limited options but I'm getting my 60 g of protein. Try Sf jam, I add it to Greek yogurt and it's so yummy.

My Dr. already put me on soft foods yesterday. I think mostly because I am unable to keep the shakes down. I am 14 days out today. I can only manage about 3 or 4 oz and feel full for 4 to 5 hrs at least.
