How are you all doing? What are you eating in a day? I'm drinking some protein, eating some nonfat yogurt, some soup and that's about it. Oh and water. Water. Are you sleeping, I'm struggling.

I just got home from the hospital yesterday, but I'm sipping broth, water , tea , sugar free ice , jello. Haven't tryed a protein shake yet.

How are you doing??

I am doing fairly well, no longer taking pain meds and able to tolerate my diet without N&V. Went to the market yesterday and walked around for 40 minutes. I have 16 staples which get removed Thursday this week but must say getting around pretty good.

How is your recovery progressing?

I'm doing well. I see my Dr on Wednesday. I, too, went to the market yesterday. First time I was out. No more pain meds and no problems tolerating anything. I'm anxious to see the Dr to affirm I'm progressing. I've no staples, I'm glued, boy am I itchy.

I have heard many others say they are itchy as well. That's usually a sign of healing so that maybe a good sign that your body is healing. Wishing you much success on this journey, happy you are doing well.

Hi! I was sleeved 2/10 in Boston. I'm having some struggles that I wondered if y'all were having or experienced at any point? I'm trying to drink water a lot. I'm dehydrated & feeling the gross affects of that, so that doesn't make it any easier. Though I'm seeing the scale tick down everyday, I'm still having mental issues with missing food. I occasionally experience cravings for foods that I probably should never eat again (mostly carbs). I'm a carbaholic. Anyone in this boat?

Hi skinny mini. I was sleeved on 2/23. I'm doing well still on all clear liquids as per my doctor. I am also having the worst cravings. My family is eating and cooking and the smell in the house is driving me crazy. I am encouraged because my total weight loss from highest wt to know is -30 pounds.

I almost had a meltdown today. My inconsiderate husband broke open a bag of corn chips & salsa & started crunching away (quite loudly, might I add) right there in front of me. I got up, went to my room & loudly closed the door. I know this isn't about him, it's about me, but I'm just having a tough day today.
