    Default Question 3 days post sleeve and hiatal hernia repair

    I was sleeved 3 days ago on August 25th. Yesterday and today I have only wanted water. No broth, no Popsicles or jello. However when I swallow the water it causes a sharp cramp in my pouch area. Is this normal? I'm also nervous that I don't want anything other than water. Tomorrow I'm suppose to start with the protein again and I cannot imagine wanting it.

    Follow your body's signals. There's no food progression set in stone.

    It took awhile for me to drink water or any liquid for that matter without sipping.

    I was sleeved the 26th. I am having a similar experience. I get a sharp pain, that lasts only a second every time I drink something. I have absolutely no interestin food. Today is Sunday and since surgery I've had two spoons of jello, two Popsicles and water. I have to make myself drink. I'm a little sore, but nothing like what I expected.

    I ha the same experience but more intense. It was the night after the surgery and it was so intense every time I sipped I would throw-up so they did an Upper GI and it turned out I had a gas bubble at the top of my stomach blocking anything from coming in. Gas-X and lots of walking solved that issue!

    Remember that we all have a raw incision inside our tummies at first. Until it heals, we have to be very gentle with it.

    Hmar79,
    How are you doing now?
    I couldn't drink much afterwards and popsicles was all I could eat!

    Still can't eat or drink as much as I would like too! I spend half a day drinking water and then try to cram in my proteins!

    Stuck at 180 pounds for months now. Hope I start to lose again!

    Do what you can sweetie.....

    Magnifica
