September 30th!

Hello everyone! I had my sleeve done on the 14th. I am doing fine and well. I was wondering how long did your SX put you all on full liquids? Mine told me 2 weeks. Today is day 8 from surgery. What are all
Of you drinking/eating? I’m so over these protein shakes. Hope everyone is doing well and good luck to everyone with their upcoming Sx!

I am having revision from sleeve to bypass on September 18 (due to GERD). I start the liquid diet tomorrow. It doesn’t feel real just yet.

Just checking up on you to see how you are feeling? I have my conversion tomorrow morning. How would you compare your recovery from when you had the sleeve? Hope you are well!

Mine was the 14th also. I was only on liquids for 4 days and am now in the soft and pureed stage. I'm not supposed to have protein shakes until 3 weeks after. Interesting how different ours are. Getting protein in has been hard as I feel so full almost immediately. Cottage cheese and milk have been a saving grace. I was doing great after surgery with drinking enough water but it's definitely gotten harder.

My surgery date was also 9/14!! How are things going for you post op?

I know right! I guess every SX is different. U are lucky you are tolerating the soft and puréed foods. I have been doing protein shakes, soup broths, and protein water. That is is my life saver! I have powder flavored multivitamins that I put in water but I can’t seem to finish it. What are you doing for your vitamins intake? And omg the constipation sucks so bad right now. Are you guys experiencing that?

No constipation for me so far fortunately. I was on liquids for the first week, protein shakes after day 3. And was given the go ahead for soft / pureed on day 8 so I've been kind of mixing a few soft things in with my shakes and liquids to ease in. I'm doing chewable vitamins and I have found at least for my morning set I need to get something else in my stomach or else I feel sick. Best of luck to you all.

Just received my approval email from my insurance company and have a date set for next week. Extremely excited and nervous.

Same! I have to call in the day before to get a confirmed time.

Tahitiab how exciting. They are gonna call me. But most likely I’ll call cause I work that afternoon. And I don’t want to miss the call.
