I am 2 weeks post op. I feel great I am ready to go to work.

Sw 285 Cw 268 I did hit a stall when I went from liquids to purée food. But even though I hit a stall I loose inches and once my body has caught up, I start loosing weight again. I really have to watch what I eat because a lot of stuff makes me sick and I get full quickly.  A lot of people say there cravings are no longer and I totally disagree. I still have cravings and to satisfy them I eat what I crave but I purée it.

All Sleeved :)

I got my Gastric sleeve done on Wednesday July 6, Everything went well. I was Nauseous the first 48 hrs while the air was coming out of me. Other wise I am on great pain killers that are knocking me out. I have started walking around my neighborhood and it feels great. Only thing that is upsetting me is after the sleeve i have gained 4 lbs and i am not eating anything. I am trying to get 64 oz of liquid in me which I am close to doing with no issues. I am not sure if the weight gain is because i am swollen or what it is.

Now that i have done the sleeve i am waiting to see the weight come off.

Definitely swollen. Don't worry, the weight will soon start to fall off. Congrats on your new life.

Keep up the good work and post pix of your progress.
Will do
Don't weight yourself daily ! You will be retaining fluids ! It may take a bit but the weight falls off in chunks I remember so well crying my eyes out thinking it wasn't going to work ! Then all the sudden I lost 20. Lbs ! My best advice is this follow the doctors instructions completely don't cheat ! It completely will change the way you look at food and portion sizes ! You will feel encouraged in about 6 months ! Also, take a picture of your self full body every Sunday and watch yourself shrink !! For some reason us fat people have a messed up brain and we always see ourselves the same and not as thin it's like a curse ! I am 5'10 and weight 286 I wore the same darn clothes for like 7 months after my sleeve I felt discouraged some days but then literally one day I looked at a picture of myself and didn't recognize myself ! And then I had a friend force me to go buy new clothes and it was like a miracle ! So don't get discouraged keep a photo journal ! And know you will look amazing the weight comes off in chunks
