I'm done too. Walking every hour and am progressing to 8 oz of liquid per hour. Getting up and down is tricky, but I'm surviving. Hang in there everyone. We'll be great.

I was sleeved on Monday. Had problems getting any liquids in, but today is better. Getting 40 oz at a minimum is a real challenge.

Day 8 post op...boy did I mess up! I'm on full liquids which include cream of chicken Soup so I also bought some cream of potato Soup. Apparently there were bacon bits and other ingredients in this soup! I mushed a couple of small potato pieces in my mouth before swallowing. Holy cow!! I was in serious pain most of the evening.. I see now there is a reason they put you on full liquids for 2 weeks because your body cannot handle much else! LOL I see why they tell you to introduce one food at a time once you are able to eat regular food... Lesson learned I won't make that mistake again!!! ????

I was advised to pass any soup through a sieve for the first two weeks. Hope you're feeling better now.

I get to start puree tomorrow. I can't wait!!

Interesting to read other people's experience this far. I am 11 days out. I can have puréed food for the next two weeks. I have been eating baby food. I know it sounds strange--but I really like it.

I'm 8 days out also, and doing well on the full liquids. My only problem is I'm still hungry. I thought that would go away after the surgery. I think I will start pureed Foods this weekend and can't wait.

Are you sure it is actual hunger? I haven't felt hungry in two weeks.

Make sure you're taking your acid reducer as that can feel like hunger.

I am taking the acid reducer, but at least once a day I feel hunger. I can feel liquids going down and the rumble of food as it is going through my system. I hate the feeling as I want to eat more and faster which I know I can't do.

Had my first pureed meal today. It was pretty odd. Scrambled egg and salsa. At least it wasn't a Protein Shake.< /p>

I get that same feeling. I'm a June 8 sleeve. But it seems to be diminishing.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
