Hey all, anyone have the sleeve done on feb 16? How are you feeling? How much did u lose so far? What are you eating/drinking?

Does 2/15 count? Feeling much better. My doctor had me on Clear liquids for 3 days, then switch to full liquid. One week out he has me on puree. Next week I'm supposed to try soft foods. It's much faster than other schedules I've heard about, but so far, so good. Not having problems with the Water, probably because I easily drank 16-24 oz. of coffee plus water each day pre-surgery. I was already a "sipper." Discovered my limit is 3 TBSP of pureed food. Anything more and I feel it.

Gained 5 pounds from the surgery. But that went away fairly quickly. By my scale, I've lost that plus another 5 pounds. My doctor's scale weighs 3 lbs. heavier than mine does. As far as they're concerned I've lost 2 lbs. Grrr. Oh, and I had my stitches out!

Hi Niya

I had mine on the 2nd Feb 2016, so just over 3 weeks ago. I live in London but I went to the Czech Republic to have it done. It was really good.

I struggled at first when I first came home with all the change and missing food but I'm now a lot happier and beginning to understand my new stomach!

I'm eating basically Soups, oats for Breakfast, humus , cottage cheese, fresh juices of fruits and veggies..

I'm not going to rush into normal food at all. I've lost 20 pounds so far ..

What about you? x

I had my surgery on the 16th. I am feeling great! I was on clear liquids for 3 days, now I am on regular liquids. I have lost 14 lbs as of this morning. I have my follow up today, hoping to get on soft foods today!

I had my surgery on the 16th. I'm feeling pretty good. Lost 15 pre op and am now down 21. My surgeon started me on full liquid diet on day two. I went back to work yesterday and should start soft foods next Wednesday. Hardest part so far is not being able to pick up my son.

Im on full liquids. Ahh lol. Cant wait for pureed food . I was in the hospital for 2 days after the surgery was really nauseous and in pain. I too gained weight while in the hospital. I gained 3 pounds. I guess its from the IV fluids? ? But overall from start of preop diet til now i lost 17 pounds. Some pounds is better than no pounds so ill take that .
