Folks don't let us discourage you - really one-two days of uncomfortableness? A few hours of misery for some - no pain no loose? Lol it really was only bad for 4 hours. It is worth it - heck even read some male parts when 30% weight loss looks 15% bigger according to ladies (so not man measurements)

I am on the 13th. Good luck

Day 5 post op:

Still a little gas pain. Getting in about 3/4 of my fluids. This gets better everyday.

My surgeon leaves a drain in. Mine comes out Monday. (Yay) This is a safety precaution for leaks. As far as incision pain, I have very little. I would be up and going way more if it weren't for the drain. I've had some coughing which is horrible. But surviving well!

No regrets so far! As @@paramedic said: No pain no lose! Y'all got this!

Jesus loves you!!!

OMG I want to cheat so bad too. I am on day 4 and it has taken me everything not to...doesn't mean I won't. lol...but seriously I don't think it will be the end of the world having a bite. But then again I keep thinking about just a bite of something. lol

Today has been rough. I still haven't cheated but I'm hungry and grumpy. Had to go to a family party - tons of yummy food (antipasto, heirloom tomatoes, egg salad, chicken salad, cole slaw) and I sipped my shake and had some broth. Day 6 done! 8 more days to go - we've got this!

I hope it doesn't affect my surgery but trying to stay on track, we can do this !

I was sleeved Oct 6th. I'm on Clear Liquids I think until Thursday or Friday. But I really feel like i could tolerate yogurt, Apple sauce, and some other full liquid stuff. But I'm sticking to the plan. I keep having stomach spasms. I assume this is normal. How is everyone else doing?? I haven't weighed myself...
