Today is a full week I have been sleeved (got sleeved on 2/14). Now when I drink water or any liquid it doesnt hurt, never really did. Sometimes when I have had something to drink I burp and can feel it going down.  The only time I feel full is when I have something with substance like soup.  Is something wrong with me?

There is nothing wrong with you.  It never hurt me to drink water, I did choose to sip rather than gulp but there was never any pain.  All is well, enjoy your journey.

From what others here have said, you won't feel really full until you start eating solids. Several here have joked about wondering if they actually got sleeved at all in those first two weeks.

In short, it doesn't sound like there is anything wrong with you at all.

You won't feel "restriction" until you start on dense protien..
You are doing just fine. I never had any pain and could always drink pretty normally.

I did not have any hunger during the liquids phase, and I could drink very easily from the get-go.  I didn't even burp! 

I found myself getting hungry once I started eating mushies and soft foods.  I was really scared, thinking I didn't have any restriction or would be hungry all the time.  Once I got on regular foods, I learned to manage my hunger easily. 

Looking back, I was so nervous those first couple of months.  Everything was new and weird and different.  But it all worked out just fine!  Try to relax.

 Congratulations Sleeve Sister, we were both sleeved on the same day. I do notice a little burp sometimes, but no pain, and if I forget and take  too big a swallow or drink too fast i feel it  going down too, but no pain. As Elina assures us, I believe that this must be normal.
