So here I am ...1 week at I dropped 12pounds..however I dont feel nothing..I can drink and I am fine..I do sip and today I had my oatmeal I was fine...I feel great!! However I have my doubts..after reading other people's stories.. Does anyone else feel normal?

well done with the 12 pounds!!!

I had the Lap Band put in so slightly different but I made a friend in hospital someone who had the sleeve and it has been great as we both went in same day and able to spend the few days after walking the halls together and we text nearly daily with updates of new information we find out about ourselves.

There will be days where you wake up and feel great - and no issues or anything and there will be some days where the body is not feeling it and to which you may feel you're going backwards. being 3 weeks out, definitely listening to my body has been the biggest lesson! and my sleeve friend has found the same too. Both finding some days we aren't hungry some days we are - She has found she can tolerate pasta some times and some times she can't.

Take it as a positive that you're feeling normal and doing everything right by what has been advised people are more likely to post issues than complements too don't forget

Thank you for this advice...I feel good..and glad your doing well.

Yes, I've felt great since surgery. I'm not quite 2 months out and I'm down nearly 70lbs. I think you just had an easy recovery and that is great. I hope it continues for you, me, and everybody else. So far only heavy, dry meats have given me any discomfort and that was very mild. Just make sure to not introduce too many things at once. That way, if something doesn't sit well with you, it will be easier to pinpoint the problem food. Congrats so far.

hey there! i am only 3 weeks post-sleeve, but i felt completely normal by day 5. my diet progression is super slow, so i hope when i get to regular foods, i will feel a difference. i have no problem getting 75 oz of water in per day, plus 90 grams of protein thru protein shakes
