I just had my sleeve done on Thursday 11/8-

On Thursday i had no food, just ice chips,

Friday- i do not know how much intake i had, very little i think about 20-30 ounces

Saturday- i believe it was 38

Sunday- 50 and got all my protein in

Today- Its 430pm, and i am at 65 with half protein in. I started this morning at 7 am on a 20 ounce water.. when i got to work at 8 am i put it aside and had 10 ounces of coffee with 2ounces of protein for creamer.. finished the coffee by 10 am. I then went back to the water and finished it around noon. At noon I went to my protein shake and finished it around 130, I then made a 24 ounce of water and just finished it about 430pm. I found i had to constantly sip all day. I never got hungry but constantly every few minutes had a sip or two going down.

It still hurts a bit going down.. like pressure i am not sure why or if its trying to pass the gas that may still be there. I still have a protein shake to go this evening, and can do more water, but i am almost at the mindset, that i have reached the goal for the day. Is it possible to drink to much? Its going down and staying down.

I also was excited today that i was able to have a small BM for the first time since Wednesday. I think I will need some myralax or something or smooth move just in case as it was not normal but verge of constipation, but at least it moved.

Thanks for your input.

As long as you are comfortable, feeling no ill effects and following your plan you should be fine.

consult your team if anything changes.

Congrats and Safe Journey!

I think it sounds like your doing well? But see if sipping a little more slowly makes that pain or discomfort go away? Hard to say? Are you taking liquid tylenol? I think I was still doing that at day 4?

I still have probs with going to the bathroom. I sometimes have to have some milk of mag. But if you are able to get th fluids down that's great. Moving around helped me with pain, like walking in my house or around the house. I came home with something for pain, but I couldn't take it because I now can't stand the taste of crushed up meds. So, I took very little Tylenol one day, but I stay away from acetametaphin if I can.

I feel like you are drinking plenty of fluids and moving really helps the bowl movements. I would try more of that to get it going! I am on day 6:of my liquids and feel like it is going well boo issues but I am still taking the Tylenol. Thought had to finish it?
