I'm almost 3 weeks post op. I haven't had much pain and so far my recovery has been great. I'm not getting in all of my Water or Protein yet. I am however getting more water now than I was before being sleeved. The hardest thing is eating slow. If u don't eat slow I would take this ti.e before getting sleeved to practice. I am in the soft food stage now and still struggle with eating slow enough.

Had mine on 5/22. No complications. Doing 3 Protein Shakes a day and other Clear Liquids. Really want eat some regular food but waiting for ok. I think the 3 week mark I can start soft foods. Only have pain if I do something too strenuous. Get tired quickly. Have not been nauseous much until last couple of days. I’m going to try switching I’ll I drink. Today I could only drink 2shakes.

Sleeved May 18th and went back to work May 24th. Horrible gas pain and little regret at the beginning, but now I’m doing just fine. 22 lbs down since May 11th pre op diet. Struggling to get down Protein Shakes and all of my Water.

I was May 9, 2018. Anyone try super firm tofu? It really upset my stomach. Anyone had that experience with tofu?

I was sleeved the 8th... I had pan-fried extra firm tofu Thursday night and it was all good for me. I didn't have very much of it though, just a couple of thin slices. I was planning on having more next week, so hopefully it's still good!

      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!!
