It took me about 6 days before I could really do anything to help my hubby with the kids. Now I can do some chores not at much as I used to but I just rest when I get tired. I feel better after a nap or a good nights rest I think it helps me to heal. I would definitly enlist some people to help you that first week. Good luck to you sweetie!

I will say prayers for you sweetie good luck to you hope everything goes well!

Good luck sweetie!

This is the best thing that I have ever done for myself! Don't let anyone talk you out of doing what you know what is best for you! Good luck to you sweetie we are all here for you! :0)

Happy birthday sweetie! What a birthday present lol hope everything goes well for you!

I feel ya sweetie I have been constipated for three days and finally this morning I tried some applesauce with fiber in it and finally tonight I had a bowl movement. I am going to keep eating the applesauce with fiber in it cause it really hurts to get all backed up. I had pain and it felt like I was going to throw up after a meal. I hope you feel better soon sweetie!

I tried some last night and added more water and my stomach tolerated them just fine. I know I must have the stomach of a cow! lol Atleast it is a smaller stomach. lol

I hope things get better for you

Sending positive vibes for a quick recovery. Remember to sip, sip, sip, and walk it helps alot.

I am four days post op and yesterday started to eat yougurt and applesauce with protein powder in it. I was eating about 1/2 cup. Was wondering why my stomach was hurting. When I looked closer at the portion sizes I read I am only supposed to eat 1/4 cup. Do you think I have done permenant damage? I am also having trouble keeping my vitamins down. I am just overwelmed and in pain ;( I am angry with myself because I thought I was so prepared for this but I guess I wasn't. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks

Congratulations! So happy for you!

Welcome sweetie! Glad to have you aboard! The thing about the sleeve is that it is alot like the band it just restricts the amount of food you can eat. It is very similar to the band as it is just a restriction tool for you tummy. I am sure you can find a wealth of info on this site. good luck to you. ;0)
