    Hi. I just signed up for this forum and wanted to introduce myself. I'm 49 years old from New Jersey, USA. I just had gastric sleeve surgery on Monday, 4/17/2017. My surgeon told me I also had a hiatal hernia that he fixed as well. Today I'm feeling much better - less soreness and pain in my stomach and a little more energy. Ive been able to get around 40-60 grams of protein and water in for the last 3 days and today I started walking on the treadmill slowly for 15 minutes. I'm on full liquids for another 2 weeks.

    I'm looking forward to reading this forum.

    You sound like you're doing very well since surgery, congratulations! I'm struggling with getting more water into me, along with a little more food. (I'm 4 weeks out today).
