Day 3 Post Surgery

Feeling much better today. I have been able to drink and eat with minimal cramps from my new sleeve. I'm getting up and down much better as well. I still have some pulling on the incisions when I get up but it is nothing like it was the past 2 days.   The menu for the last 2 days included Jello, popcicles, broth, and of course water. My plan allowed me to add some new things today so I have added unsweetened apple sauce, light yogurt, and really think oatmeal. So far everything is settlin

Day 2 Post Surgery

Horrible, Horrible, Horrible. I think that sums up day 2 post surgery. I was nauseous from about 6pm on Thursday to about 6pm on Friday. Every time I tried to drink something my sleeve would spasm. I took a zofran and that seemed to help. I was able to eat a bit more last night (popcicle, jello and broth). Glad day 2 is over.

1 Day Post Surgery

I can hardly believe that I had my surgery almost 29 hours ago now. I feel much better than I anticipated I would. My pain level immediatly after surgery was maybe a 6 and the nurse got it down to a 3 within minutes. Once I was back in the room the pain seemed to go down to a 2-3 and stayed there for a few hours then went down to a 1. As I sit here just 29 hours post OP I have to say my pain level is a ZERO!!! No regrets on the surgery so far. I have been drinking plenty of water (slowly)
