This is going to sound ridiculous but hoping I can find others that feel this great after surgery. I was sleeved on 10/18. I feel fantastic. I didn't take any narcotics after waking up from surgery. Just some (Torbidol?) which I was told wasn't that strong. I have no pain and almost feel like nothing happened. I was up walking around and hour after recovery and felt great. I know this sounds crazy but i almost feel like this is to good to be true? Anyone else experience this?

I quit for a month and took my nicotine test, then I started smoking again about 5 cigs or so a day now I've stopped again its been 3 days its not easy thats for sure I have to constantly battle my mind telling me to go get some but I know I can't take that chance I'm waiting on insurance approval all my pre ops are done just getting to close to cheat. Good luck, oh I eat hard candy like I"m smoking it helps a little.

Yep. Me too. Today is Day 1. I was good all day but getting super hungry tonight [emoji51] Even raw veggies sound good right about now lol

I even tell strangers. I really dislike the stigma and find that explaining it to people increases acceptance. Everybody at work knows but we are a close knit group anyway.

Peace to you...good luck Sent from my LGMS210 using BariatricPal mobile app

Good luck! See you over on the post-surgery forum!

Hernia repair. Same recovery and having to drink fluids for a while. I’m being upfront about mine because I think people will notice. [emoji16]

That’s amazing I hope I feel like this after surgery x

I'm so excited to finally be this close! It's been an extremely long journey for me. I've been close before but it never happened due to various reasons. This time, it's happening! It's the closest I've been, all my clearances have happened, all my weight management, my psych eval is done! I'm currently scheduled for my preop and nutrition class on 10/23... I'm so ready for this!

I had surgery same exact day as you and I’m in the same exact boat. I’m trying to up my protein (not easy!) ... we are in this together friend!
