Five days post-op

[Kamboka]

I had the gastric sleeve on Monday. They kept me in the hospital until Wednesday. I'm doing progressively better every day with the discomfort and getting in my liquids. I do find myself hungry but there is not much appealing to eat on the liquid/pureed diet. I'm trying some different blended soups and trying to get at least two protein shakes in a day. I do love water but I think it might be a few more days before I'm at 64 ounces. Glad to have found this forum.

Congrats on the surgery and welcome to the group! Don't worry about getting all the water in right away. Do the best you can and each day do a little more. Speedy recovery!

Thanks for the words of encouragement. I hope to learn a lot from the folks on this forum.

I have been purely water for almost 6 yrs now. Everything else is to sweet for me. If I drink juice I have to water it down for the sweetness to ease up. But my thing is water. I love it. And sometimes things dont look appealing but do get something into that pouch

I think I will miss my 'southern sweet' tea but not yet.
