    5th day post op no much gas pain anymore, but the soreness on my right side near the larger incision still aches enough that I taking the pain meds once a day hopefully I won't need the pain meds by Monday which will be 1 week to the the I was sleeved.
  5. I'm 2 days post op, day one was horrible cramping and cold chills all day and most of the night. Even with the symptoms the backup surgeon told me this was just my body getting use to the new anatomy (the sleeve) I was discharged around 8:30pm last night. Please tell things will get better? Suffering!

    Cramping

    Thanks for all the encouragement. The cramping has not been as intense today as it was yesterday, but it has been a challenge to get down 1 shake & one 16oz bottle of water taken in 1oz shots every 20mins. I still have another 14.5oz shake and another bottle of water to try and get down today it's tough.

    Pre-Op Diet

    Day 11 out of weakness and frustration I broke the liquid diet and had a boneless skinless chicken breast. I feel like I failed myself, but I walked an extra 1/2 mile tonight to make up for eating it.
