I am 1week 2 days post op. I too had pain, however, it is so much better now. I am however HUNGRY! Wth? I too am confused. The nurse just said try to "eat" 5 times a day... The protein shakes make me gag as well, therefor hurts my stomach. Also, it's a little depressing - especially the hunger!!

So how are you doing now? Thank you so much for sharing!

Aw, thank you! That's exactly how I feel! I've had a little anxiety about thinking it might not ever go away... Lol. One hour at a time.

Thank you!

Thank you Madam! How encouraging. I forget about the whole hormone thing. I will settle down and be patient!

Supposedly acid can manifest itself as hunger post operativly. I had reflux pre surgery so continued with the Prevacid after

I'm like really pissed about this!! I'm not sure at who or what. It seriously concerns me!!

Yes, I'm taking Prevacid

I am going crazy! I was sleeved on February 26. I am doing everything I am supposed to do. Why in the world am I so hungry? NO - it's not mental hunger as I know the difference. Anyone else experience this?

Wow! I just saw this!! My sleeve date got pushed to the 26th :-(. I'm now on pre op day 4...how are you doing? How are you feeling??? Oh... Those numbers in my name are my sons birthday too!!

I'm def worried about the fatigue! Bless your heart... I'm sure this is difficult with a toddler. How much have you lost?

I'm so glad to hear that. I don't even see him until the day before surgery. Thanks!

I'm assuming that would hold true for pre op as well? When was your surgery and how are you doing?

When did you have your surgery? How are you doing?

So... Share your story... Hows it going?

Hope you are doing ok!! Keep us posted, I am scheduled for February 26!!!

Hey! We have the same surgery date!! I too start my pre op tomorrow and a little nervous!! So what is your pantry/fridge stocked with? What kind of protein shakes have you chosen? Hope we can cheer each other on!!! ????

Hi! I'm from Arkansas!! I haven't had surgery yet but am scheduled for February 26th. My surgeon is dr. Mark Gibbs. I will be at baptist. Have you had surgery? How's it going? Would be interested in hearing a fellow Arky's story!

I would like to hear from any sleevers in the area. My surgery is February 26, Dr. Mark Gibbs in little rock. Getting nervous... Start 2 week pre-op tomorrow.

I was searching for people in Arkansas and found your post. I too am having the sleeve February 26 by Dr. Gibbs. How are you doing now?

Good luck to you! Hope all goes well. Can't wait to hear how you are doing. I'm right behind you... I'm on the 5th.

I'm scheduled for February 5th. Good luck to all me fellow sleevers this month!

Is your pre-op only 10 days??

Well I decided in June this is what I wanted. I had to save for my portion of the cost. I'm guessing had I been ready from the start it would have taken 4-6 weeks to get scheduled. I guess it depends on insurance requirements etc. I paid My portion on Monday and got scheduled today.

Thank you for that! I wish you all the best. Look forward to keeping up with you!
