2 days post op

Hi all,  I just got sleeved on wed 3/12. Came home yesterday. Working on getting in all my liquids but it's hard. Also trying to build up the walking. All in all I can't complain I'm more sore then in actual pain. 

Any words of wisdom or encouragement are appreciated!  

Congrats Blessed! I'm 1 day post op myself. You've come this far by choice so you already have a great start on moving into a healthier lifestyle. Keep walking and sipping and the soreness will continue to subside!!

Glad you're doing well! It will be difficult to get in your liquid numbers for a while. Just keep plugging away at it every day and you'll get there eventually. Just keep an eye out for signs of dehydration (and watch the color of your urine - the lighter, the better).

Take care of yourself! Welcome to the Losers' Bench :)

Your off to a great start! Just follow your plan, belive it or not the time flies by and you will be feeling great. Wishing you well on your weight loss journey!

I'm in the same boat so not sure how much advise I can offer: I was sleeved on 3/11. Just listen to your body and take it easy. Do not pu**** So far I avoided vomiting.  It is also very personal, everyone's recovery is different and from what I am seeing everyone's food plan varies from doc to doc. My doc suggest clear liquids for the first week post op, and I will keep to his suggestions.

It's hard but we can make it:) I am sure we will cross paths on this bboard again, but if you have questions this seems to be a good medium to seek answers and advice.

Congrats!  The first 3 days are rough.  Getting your walking in..sip all day . Nectar protein drink mix helped me. It's delicious and easy to drink and have 23 grams of protein and very light   that was my life saver.   Get a head on your constipation.  Ask your doctor for collese stool softeners. 2x a day. And on day 4 drink  deluted prune juice.  ..good luck

I agree on the suggestion about staying ahead of your constipation.  I was sleeved on 3/12 and spent a rather unpleasant hour in the restroom this evening.  Wish I had started the Colace earlier!

I was sleeved on 3/10 and I am having the complete opposite problem no constipation if you know what I mean anyone else with this problem post- op oh and congrats to all my new sleeve friends .. Dawn

I was sleeved on 3/12 and hand terrible constipation on post op day#2.  Today has been the complete opposite, so I am worried about taking any type of stool softener yet.  Of course, this is somewhat the norm for me since my gallbladder came out 3 years ago, so I guess I will just continue to deal with it!
