I was sleeved on Monday home late afternoon wed and really feeling good today, just a little sore ness. I've had 2 days of clear liquids and now 5days of clear liquids and then mushy food. Seems fast compared to other peoples posts. Big question is how long does the swelling last?
Thanks so much for all the nice responses right before surgery they helped

congratulations and welcome home!  i didn't have much swelling so can't really say about that... i am 2 weeks and 1 day out and would love mushy food!  have to wait 6 more days for it!  are you tolerating everything well?

 HI I had asked the same question I was sleeved on Tuesday but I am still and will be on liquids for another 4 weeks that's what my NUT told me. However, someone answered my post and said 14 was the magic number 14 days and you will be feeling much better with the swelling and gas :) so here I am day 3 and 11 more to go hahahahaha Hope this helps you

GOD BLESS AND CONGRATULATIONS

Welcome home and congratulations on being sleeved!!!  I am happy you are doing so well!  The swelling takes time, everyone is different, but a week to a few weeks is norm.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery....take care!
