I found an app on my phone that reminds me to drink every 15 minutes. I have it set to 2oz every 15 minutes. Works pretty good. But it is very annoying to get this reminder... lol but if I don't do that I won't drink enough..

Hi everyone, I was sleeved 3/28 and I feel I'm doing very well, maybe too well. I also have no problem drinking and have eaten smushies already with no problems. Hummus, low fat Vienna sausages and even saltine crackers after letting the pieces melt in my mouth. I'm counting the calories & logging them but it scares me a little that I'm able to eat so easily. It was supposed to be easier to lose weight after the sleeve. Am I alone with this issue?

Honestly it scares me that I had no difficulties just a little discomfort by my larger incision. But I can drink like a champ like before vsg. Eating I take easier, I never tried pushing myself.

I had my surgery on 3/22/16 and would love a pal to share experiences, ups and downs, etc. I live in Wheatland WY and am approaching my 57th birthday. I have lost 20 lbs since surgery but already feel like I have hit a plateau.

trish - I had my surgery on the same day. Live in Houston, Texas area. By 2 weeks I had lost 20 lbs. Week 3 was slow, but this week is back on track. Keep drinking Water and getting your Protein in.

Only issues I have had is I did not chew some cauliflower enough and it came back up. Only happened once. I also note when I eat and am quite full I get heartburn. If it continues I will give Dr a call - maybe get some pepcid.
