Just sleeved 4/7, so tomorrow will be officially one week. I'm so excited to have had it done! Now that the production is over, I already feel behind. I was behind prior to leaving the hospital....received so much Fluid I couldn't possibly get it all down. Now that I can have Soups, I'm wondering how many oz of Soup per sitting? I'm trying to get use or distinguish between the "full" versus "gas" feeling.

2 days sleevers. (April 12th ).
Been in hospital 2 days and was able to keep all the fluids they gave me. After a 3h drive backhome got a boost and everything is still fine. Don't have the full feeling yet or gas but I'm sure its around the corner some where.

Had my surgery 4/10. I am also struggling to get my fluids in. I am so sick of the Protein Shakes, it takes me 6-8 hours to finish one. Was super excited to finally eat some Soup. I've been taking Gas-X and it helps. I can't wait to be able to eat eggs & cheese!

I was sleeved 4/11 and excited about this journey as well. I had severe nausea the first two days and couldn't hold down any fluids. Now I'm having to remember to drink or eat broth. It's strange because I don't get hungry just weak if I go a hour or two without anything.

Good luck everyone and I hope your recovery goes smoothly.

I was sleeved 4/7 too! Yay! Finally others! I make Soup like I normally do, then strain it. I only drink about 1/4 cup over 30 min or so... i put the rest in a bowl and pour a little in my cup at a time and heat it in the microwave at work...

I had my sleeve on 3/13/17 and have lost 30 pounds already. I will get to have any texture I want starting next week and I would really love some celery and Peanut Butter. LOL. I sure celery is not gonna fly with new stomach yet but I will try soon. When I first had sleeve it too me forever to drink Protein and Water. Still takes a lot to drink them both but I try very hard. My Protein Drink is premiere but I also like BariWise adds to coffee and water. Found them on Amazon.< br>

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
