Sleeved on the 29th...Not having a problem getting the Protein i the Water is not working well...I'm only gettin in about 32oz. I'm still having a little pain at the main incision site. I tried an oz of cream of chicken Soup today and it was terrible and salty!...I tried cootage cheese with applesauce and it was terrible. I bought some sugar free pudding going to try an oz of that later when I take my meds. I stll haven't pooped yet....how long do that usually take?

Man you guys sound like your doing great.. I was 3/22 and I still can't get all my Water in. That's all my dr cares about but I am terribly hungry a few times a day so I do get in a little Protein or a Popscicle to stop the hunger. Im worn out and exshausted. All I do is sleep and drink water :(

I had a revision done on the 29th. From band to sleeve. So far I can tolerate almost anything. Except today I tried some watered down hummus and felt terribly sick after. That was the 1st real time I've had any nausea, or thought I might throw up. I'm terrified of vomitting, and rupturing a suture. I'm still struggling to get all my Water in. But so far, I've had blended Beans, oatmeal, avocado w/ plain Greek yogurt, and Protein shakes. Everything is blended super fine. Maybe the hummus was too thick still, or too heavy. Activity wise, I can walk around stores and the mall, but have to take it very slow, or I'll feel faint. I have a lot of head hunger, and feel like I need to chew things. Luckily, I haven't had much gas pains, walking seems to help.

I was sleeved on tuesday, 29th and I am still very sore. When I drink anything, I feel it go down and right at the bottom of my sternum I get this pain that makes my back arch. I invasion it's the drink entering my stomach, but I really don't know that for sure... happens with small sips... anyone else experience this???

That happens to me too. It's been better today but the first two days it was real painful. Kind of like a lump in your chest.

I've noticed also it hurts drinking really cold or really hot things. Room temperature is the only thing I can get down. Which is odd because I used to hate anything room temperature and would need everything ice cold pre op. If your drinking cold stuff that may be the reason for the pain

Getting my water and protein in is the hardest for me. I'm 6 days out and today I was able to walk around a lake near my house which was almost 3 miles, the other day I walked around the entire zoo. I was uncomfortable at times but I was able to push through it. Today, is the best I've felt; not feeling light headed anymore. I was having some pain around my largest incision, mainly when I was sitting in the car driving. But when I am standing, I feel nothing. I also found room temperature stuff works best for me. I get tummy aches when I drink anything too cold or too hot which is super weird because I usually refuse to drink anything without ice or super cold. One day at a time is what I keep telling myself. I'm trying to avoid getting on the scale but it's hard not to. I was at 196 on surgery day and today I'm at 187. Woohoo!!

Today finally turned the corner. I was able to do a decent long walk, even clean up a little. Still some healing needed but today I felt like I was moving forward not back. YAY!!!!

I had my surgery on the 30th of March and I think I'm doing pretty well. I stopped taking pain medication on the morning of the 1st and have felt little discomfort. I'm getting my fluids and my Protein in but still waiting for my first bowel movement. I am missing solid foods but feeling very full with what I am taking him. I wish you all a wonderful journey

I got sleep on the 29th I backed out when I was supposed to get sleet on the eighth still in hospital not feeling very well hard taking in water taking 16 ounces of water a day which to doctor said that's not enough so I'm going to see him today and see if he releases me know ball movementgetting in and out of bed nightmare

Lol stupid spellcheck I meant I got sleeve on the 29th

And still on meds

I also had mine on the 28th. I am not really having any trouble with the liquids and since I like the Premier Protein drink I am not having a problem with protein. I wake up achy- like I'm healing - but nothing severe. I have only taken liquid Tylenol a couple of times since I've been home.
