Hours Away from Surgery

Today is officially my two week post op. I am down 14lbs. There are days when I wonder if "the sleeve" was worth it. I love seeing the scale go down for a change. I purchased cases of the Primer Protein prior to surgery; now they make me gag. I am looking forward to eat soft foods. I started walking 7500 steps a day since I came home from the hospital. My goal is to increase to 10k steps by week 3. I often wonder how many calories should I eat a day...

I did extensive research prior to picking my surgeon. I even traveled over an hour for our appointments. He has done VSG on a relative. I am saying all of this because I am wondering... is my stomach small enough???? I spent 6 months of speaking with a dietitian about how hard it was going to be post-op to get my fluids in, sipping my water, 7oz stomach etc.. However I am Not having any of those issues. I drink about 96oz of water a day. Now I am sipping it but I am getting it in. I can sip my premier protein drink in about 15 min. No issues. Has anyone else been able to drink easily after surgery. I don't have an appetite, and have to remind myself to eat something. Just concerned...

My sleeve surgery was successful. It took 45 minutes. I do have a lot of nausea despite all the medication, I've been provided. I was up walking laps on the hospital. The medical team stated I am doing really well. Day two in the hospital I passed my swallow evaluation. I am eating jello and popsicles. Surprising I don't have any gas.
