I also have an IUD and no longer had a cycle....until I was sleeved! I've had 2 normal periods since being sleeved June 3. I hope they go away, it's the best part of having an IUD:)
I had both and a hiatal hernia repaired. I had minimal pain. I did sleep in my recliner for four nights, it hurt to lay flat. I felt good and was able to walk, I didn't have to much of the gas pains like others here. I was back to normal routine in a week. Good luck!
My favorite purée recipe is:
1 can fat free refried Beans
1 can chicken (from Costco)
About 1/4 cup organic salsa (from Costco)
Blend it all up, I top it with fat free cheese and heat it in the microwave and then add a little fat free sour cream. It is delish!
It makes enough for about 6 1/2 cup servings
Hi all, I was sleeved on June 3. Everything is great so far, feeling good. My daughter and I even did some shopping at the mall today, it was nice to get out. I'm so excited for this new chapter in my life!
