I'm 5 weeks post op and Feeling great so far! I'm down 22 lbs since surgery and total 39lbs since the start of my pre op diet. I went from 232 to currently 193! I'm learning which foods i can eat and thing i can no longer tolerate or no longer like. I drink mostly Water and milk i haven't found any drinks that i really like. All the sugar free drinks don't sit well since surgery. How are you other April sleevers doing?

Late April here, exactly 3 weeks today. Down 23 pounds since surgery - down 97 from my highest. Not feeling that great, having some nausea and heartburn issues, along with some fatigue. All expected this early out but hoping for some energy soon!

I’m 5 weeks post op too. I feel pretty good except I get a little fatigued faster than before surgery.
I’m 20lbs down since surgery. 32lbs since my pre-op diet. Started at 192 and currently 160.
I do get scared that I’m stretching out my pouch. It seems I always eat until I have discomfort in my stomach. Trying to learn to eat slower

Just over 3 weeks here. Sadly, only 10lbs down. I guess I’m one of the slow losers :(

Still learning to drink more Water. I can’t stomach crystal light anymore so I’m just drinking water plain.

Most foods sit well with me, thankfully. Still have lots more to try but I’m in no rush to push it. Still happy with my food selection for now.

Had my surgery 4/25/18 (a little over 3 weeks ago). I've been doing good. Nothing I've eaten has given me a bad reaction yet. Still having trouble getting in all my Protein and Water in, though. It's tough and imagine it's going to be much more difficult when I go back to work. 😕

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
