After all the doctor appointments and test done I'm finally sleeved! I got sleeved on Tuesday September 20th by Dr. Neff who is amazing. I came home the night after. I'm in pain but nothing that bad. It hurt a little when eating and drinking but its getting better I guess its from being swollen and just needing to heal from the inside. I've been walking during commercials and sipping on water or crystal light. I am kinda getting tired of the clear liquids but its all worth it in the end. I weighed myself this morning and I'm down 16 pounds already! I wanted to do a back flip of the scale! lol. Anyone have any suggestions on how I should be feeling some different things i could be eating in the clear liquid stage?

Congratulations to both of you on your new Tiny Tummies!! This is an amazing journey. Just keep walking, resting and sipping on the clear liquids.

Branifb seems to have the correct idea, broth, sf popscicles, sf jello, fudgescicles. Those were my staples too. Others may have some good ideas.

Wishing you the absolute best with your recoveries and WL journey!

I was sleeved on 9/22 and am feeling pretty good.  No real pain to speak of, other than the weird gas feeling and being tired.  The only other thing that I have been using to get my liquids in is Unjury chicken flavored protein powder with 4 oz of water.  My tummy seems to love it!

Congrats and good luck!

Congrats - I too was sleeved on 9/20!! My nutritionist suggested No Sugar Added Carnation Breakfast Essentials. I am looking for additional ideas too  - as my dr. keeps you on full liquids for 21 days.
