How did it go.

The worst pain I'm feeling is gas stuck in my left shoulder and pain in my ribs when I cough, burp or hiccup. Also going from a laying down position to sitting up is painful on the left side of my abdomen.

Walking is a cure for the gas

Use a pillow to brace your abdomen when you cough.

The laying/sitting gets better after a few days. I'd say day 4 or 5 I started to feel much better

Hey November Fam [emoji3] I was sleeved 11/20 been on clears the past week. I feel really good, I have had minimal gas and pain. Looking forward to starting Pureed Foods tomorrow.

Hi November Sleevers! I was sleeved on 11/17, I'm 8 days post op now. I am required to do a 2 week clear liquid diet for phase 1, then phase 2 I do moist and mushy in which I can add in those premier shakes, thicker soups, sweet potatoes, and dairy! I can't wait to get passed the clear liquids. I got up to 64 oz of fluids today, the highest I accumulated since out of surgery. How is everyone doing in their phases?

I struggled to get 64 oz in but I finally made it. I only have to do clear for a week, then I can start puréed.

Nausea and high blood pressure was high

My pressure was extremely high after surgery too! Still sort of high, but not as high as it was right after surgery.

I struggled to get 64 oz in but I finally made it. I only have to do clear for a week, then I can start puréed.

Yes 64 was a struggle! I found warm fluids were easier to get down. I had more broth yesterday and decaf tea. I'm counting down to Friday when I can start pureed!

When did the heart burn start? Did they do a Hiatal hernia? What do they have you on for heart burn?

My surgery was 11/21 I had nausea for the first 3 days and could only keep things down when on anti nausea meds. Yesterday was the first day I got close to to my 64 oz and was able to drink a whole protein drink, today I woke up hungry for the first time. Everyday is getting better. My 7 day clear diet ends on the 29th, I would kill for a tiny bowl of cream soup [emoji177]


Have a great day!

I'm 13 days post op and I'm still having trouble drinking 64oz. I'm full all the time.

Hi all! I just discovered this app- so glad I found you! I got sleeved on 8th Nov...almost 3wks ago now. Hope everyone is going okay

Tuesday is my surgery date November 28th. They didn't tell me I had to be on all liquids tomorrow but I think I should. Did anyone else go on just liquid before surgery

I had no pain in the largest incision (the tummy out incision) and had my surgery 11/15. Well today out of no where while at work, I'm a sales rep on my feet all day, I felt a bit of pain. Now, its progressed to a full blown tugging, stabbing pain anytime I stand up and walk. Even after surgery I was sore but I didn' have actual pain. Did I possibly over extend? Or pulled something? I'm kinda freaking out. Thanks in advanced?
