I am Sleeved!!!

Hey everyone. I am sleeved since Monday. It has taken me some days to come back to "normalcy" but I am even nearer as I type. I am in the hospital with my drain tube in and sipping water, soup, boullion...stuff like that. I have to get in 1 liter of fluids before I am discharged, so I have basically been sipping nearly all day. LOL! The surgeon is on his way to talk to me and I have a handfull of questions for him. Looking forward to seeing him today. My surgeons name is Jan Behme. I heard all went well, but I will get his take on it soon enough. I will keep everyone updated. I wanted to say that I think my Physical Therapist did such a great job getting my azz a movin post op! YAY!! Well, be wel peeps, talk to you in a day or so, hopefully from home.

    Congrats - now for the learning how to live with a great change..... Eat very slowly and chew it to bits is all I can say for now. If you eat to fast you will not feel the pain until it is tooooo late. Slow and search for the feeling of when to stop. You will find it does not take long to get full.... I am at 11 weeks and down 73 lbs. See my pictures of each week side profile
