I was sleeved on May 20 and I am down 33 lbs from surgery day.

Wags, I was sleeved on May 20. I got to the hospital at 5:30 am. Went to surgery at 7 am. Total time in surgery was about 45 minutes. I was in my room at about 10 am. I set a goal to be up and walking at noon. I took my first walk at 12:30. I had alot of nausea from anesthesia, but received medication for it Zofran then Phenergan. I walked a total of 5 times day of surgery. I was discharged at 2 pm on May 21. I have been feeling really good. Just a little sore. Went back to sleeping in my own bed right away using a pillow to splint my stomach( I am a side sleeper). I have not had a big problem getting in my fluids. The Protein shakes I liked on preop diet did not sit well with my stomach(made me a little nauseated) so I went and got the protein shots. Good Luck May 31st sleevers!

MizzouGirl, I got the protein shots at Walmart they are body fortress which was on my list of protein sources from my surgeon. They are fruit punch flavor. I don't see alot of Missouri sleevers here it would be great to keep in touch.

Mizzougirl, good luck on surgery I had mine on may 20 I am feeling good Protein shakes have been hard to get down and they tasted fine before. I just grabbed some protein shots. Only 3 ounces and 26 grams of protein. Where in missouri do u live? I live near lake of the ozarks.

I am being discharged today. I consider myself lucky I was up walking at 12:30 and walked 5 times my first day. Had some pretty bad nausea from anesthesia but it is much better now! I hope the rest of the sleevers are doing great!!

I don't think I will be able to sleep either. I am already at the Hosptial in the hospitality room. Got to be down stairs at 5:30 am hope I can sleep a little bit

I have lost 10 lbs so far. Can't believe the 20 th is almost here!
