Happy to hear you are feeling so well. Since its fresh in your mind, how did switching from clear to all liquids to purée go?? How has everything gone? I hope I feel as good as you.

I just had yogurt and cottage cheese so far, smooth sailing so far. The baby spoons help a lot. I was a huge food guzzler.

I'm wondering... How did your first week post op go? I'm 3 days out and I'm struggling so much.

I hear and see so many different stories that i guess I'm just reaching for some hope right about now!

My phase 3 is called puree/soft and is strict, no vegetables, fruit and no Soups. It is suppose to last 6-8 weeks. It is extreme boring and hard. I found the real mushie and soft foods easy like eggs, hummas, refried Beans. Anything of substance whether I blenderize or use my teeth totally exhausting such as chicken or fish. My tummy can tolerate but no more than an ounce or two. Depending on Protein shakes to help me meet my daily requirements

Keep the faith. My first couple of days sucked - I was nauseous and sore - but I wasn't miserable - keep your eye on the prize and move, even if you are moving slowly.

I stayed in the hospital 3 nights because of nausea and vomiting - once I went home I ditched the pain meds and the nausea went away. I'd rather deal with sore than nauseous so it's a trade off that works for me.

I'm 10 days out now and doing ok. Still some pain in the muscle under one incision but I feel like it's days are numbered.

Great things are ahead for us!

I was sleeved 8/30 and have been very happy so far. I have been working on getting my Protein and Water up. So far I'm getting about 45 grams Protein and 40 oz Water. I can definite tell when I take too big of a sip I will feel a really big bubble in my tummy. What are you struggling with???

      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? 🤷‍♀️
