My surgery went amazing. Only had to stay over night and was released the next day. I came home with a pain pump and a prescription to give myself 1 shot a day for 10 days of blood thinners. I have almost no pain at all except the small amount of gas left inside my chest and abominal cavity. I have been walking alot and even went grovery shopping at Walmart 2 days after surgery. Today, I had to remove the pain pump tubes on my own. Didnt hurt at all. 3 days post op here are my stats HW225 SW217 CW213 GW140.

I have the premier powder. Made one shake and it was too frothy. Do you think ice would help?

Ice may help or if you want to feel like a dessert freeze it and eat it with a spoon like a Wendys frosty!!! I nevee liked the powders either only premade ones.

I don't want to get discouraged in case I'm still carrying extra fluids from the hospital.

Smart!!!!

I was sleeved on 4/13 and I had a similar experience. No pain, except gas pain. Man, that was brutal for about 5 days. I'm 2 weeks post-op and anxious to have my ONE EGG [emoji23] Haven't tried the Premier Protein shakes, though... the carbs scare me. I'm already 30 lbs down. Don't want to derail myself!!

I was able to have scrambled eggs, chopped lean meats, low fst cheese and homemade salsa yesterday. The carbs in protein shakes isnt that bad. Your body has to have some carbs for energy and to function. The biggest thing you want to watch is the sugar alcohol grams.

Hmmm- that's a good point. I send my brother out to pick me up a pack- chocolate and strawberry cream. Will update on how it goes. Thanks!

Hi I was sleeved on the 17th too, I only vomited that night and had crazy gas pain. I still forced myself to walk and I was able to get released the next day. I been feeling great and down 17lbs since my surgery except I constantly have the burps! Does anyone else get this? The second I eat or drink I get such bad gas pain and I start burping like crazy! Also I can't take the shakes/broth anymore and I have another week and 1/2! I been on a liquid diet for almost 4 weeks now. The smells and the thought of having another shake/broth is outright repulsive. I don't want any bad food I just want chicken or a salad.

I am the same down 16 lbs from surgery. I get the burps all the time. I only had to do liquids for a week. But i was allowed cpttage cheese and cream soups so it wasnt too bad!!!
