I just got the sleeve 3weeks ago my highest weight was 441 when I had my surgery weighed in at 421 after 2 weeks post op I was 390. I have to admit its a little harder than I expected it to be the hardest thing for me is that I'm a big drinker of water and only being able to take sips drives me nuts I don't get hungry but sometimes I wanna eat what I see other people around me eating but I do have control I just feel at times I'm really tired and don't feel like myself anymore .

You are doing great! One day at a time with the Water...you'll be gulping it down before you know it.

Thanks.

Hang in there. It gets easier and eventually you'll be able to take normal swallows.

As everyone else has stayed, just hang in there, it does get easier.

Just remind yourself when you find yourself wanting something that isn't on your plan that it won't taste very good.

You are doing great!

You are doing awesome. Eventually you will be drinking lots and lots so no worries. One day at a time.

Great job. Doing better than did at this phase.

OUTSTANDING start !!!!!!!

Thanks a lot everyone for the support its appreciated. I'm still trying to do my best but am having a hard time getting the protein in it seems like I've gotten really picky on taste lately so its been frustrating.

The unflavored works good for me mixed with a flavor pack like hi-c or lemonade. I try to stay away from adding milk, to keep my calories down. I also do yogurt which gives you about 8-15 grams depending on what kind. Sugar free protein bars. There's quite a few foods and drinks that'll get you there. You always have the community here to help!☺

It gets easier once you can eat more.
