Hi all. Checking in. Had the sleeve on July 10th. Had some severe pain right after for the first two days and nausea and vomiting that subsided day 3. Now tolerating fluids, a shake, sf pops and jello. Things going welll. Hope the other July sleepers are going well also.

Glad to hear you're doing well! My surgery was July 11th and I'm tolerating the same as you. Still sore but I think I'm actually going to leave the house today and see a movie. I'm already tired of staring at these walls!

Yes. I went to target yesterday and just walked around. Needed to get out. My soreness getting better every day. Are you tolerating shakes yet?

July 13th sleeve. Still have pain in my abdomin. Just drinking Premier Shakes, Premier Clear, and Water. Some abdominal cramping, gas I guess.

Yep! Had my second shake (first shake was in the hospital before discharge) yesterday and it didn't make me sick, hallelujah. I need to do better on my water intake but I feel like I'm on the right path. Soreness is there but bearable so I'm doing slow walks on the treadmill every 2 hours.

Sounds like you are doing great! I had a lot of gas 2 days out as well. Hang in there!

You’re doing well. Has pain is normal. One day at a time.

Great! Keep up the good work!

WOW. It's amazing how each doctor is different. I had surgery on July 11th as well. I am still on clear liquids until day 10 then progress to protein shakes, soups, and yogurt. I am glad I joined this group. Full of good information.

Same here, Only on clears for 1st week. I would love to have a protein shake right now or something with some type of texture.
