Next Tuesday will be the third (week) anniversary of my sleeve surgery. Been losing at least 3 pounds weekly, although I had planned only 2. Been going to the gym daily since one week prior to surgery, with surgery week idle. Walking, stationary bike, various machines, and hour-long water exercise, along with steam room, etc. Two hours every day.
I'm never hungry, but often thirsty. Have trouble taking enough water to avoid thirst and low-blood pressure. Want to loose 100 pounds and gain body strength during my first year. I already see good results and feel more confident I can attain my goals. I'm looking forward to solid foods and fresh vegetables in 3 more weeks.
Yes, my doctor wants me on liquids or very-soft foods for 6 weeks. I make a lot of blender vegetable soop and enjoy my small-curd cottage cheese. Also eating lots of egg whites for protein.
