I am actually feeling pretty good Thank God. No pain just a little soreness I'm my stomach when I move a certain way. I started protein drinks yesterday and was able to get down almost 2 of them. I get the rumbles in my stomach but that's normal for me before surgery.

How are you??

Feeling good. My one incision site is sore. But other than that I am up and about. Right now I am on clear liquids. Monday I can start adding protein back into my diet.

I feel really good as well. I had no pain, nausea or vomiting two days out. Today some soreness but nothing I can't handle. Walking helps keep everything moving and flowing so I don't get stiff.

Sleeved 3-22 in KY. Doing well now after the initial gas pains and swelling of stomach post surgery.

I was sleeve 3/21! How is everyone doing?

I was the 20th and doing awesome. No ill effects. And I'm out and walking almost everyday!

I was sleeved the 20th, I feel pretty good. No major pain just soreness at the biggest incision site.. I'm able to tolerate almost eveey thong i have tried.. eggs, grits, ricotta bake, and refried beans... I'm not doing all that great with my protein so I'm trying to get it through my foods. I've lost a total of 20lbs (including 3 day pre op liver shrinking diet)... How much have you all lost??

@ThickGirl5683 and @shan0520 that's great! I'm still on full liquids! Moving to pureed diet on the 6th. I'm down 20 including preop diet!

@Ellykann I was moved to the puree stage on the 30th but I can't WAIT for the day when I can eat a salad.. I hope my weight continues to come off...

I'm on puree stage next week. I'm excited and nervous lol.

We'll have to share what we are eating! Pureed food sounds just so terrible to me haha.

Ellykann it sounds terrible too, but I am ready for a new taste. In over broth and shakes lol.
I have been cookingfor my family and putting small containers in the freezer to use. So far I have chicken with a little taco seasoning, roast beef and gravy, and pork with gravy.
