I was sleeved on monday so I am day 4. First couple of days I didn't get any way near enough of anything. Sipping was more like dipping my upper lip into something and trying not to swallow to fast. Today I can take what I would consider a normal sip. I feel completely full all the time but the only pain I have now is the one incision where my hernia was fixed. You'll get there...it's amazing at how fast I'm healing

I was sleeved on Monday the 21st, with a hernia repair, no drain and one night in the hospital. Last night my body finally let go of all the gas...good thing no one lit a match!! Lol... the only pain I have left is the one incision that has the indent. It feels like a hot poker! It does get better every day though. I started my period today so I'm not feeling very energetic. The good news is now I can take normal sips without pain and no moe gas!

Sip sip sip all day long and walking 5-10 min every couple hours. I feel so full I don't know how I could possibly drink any more than I am

I am sleeved! I have absolutely no nausea at all. ... pain os constant and tolerable. More like I did 5000sit ups...except for mytop right incision which hurts like a b***h! I finally went pee by myself and walking feela great. Hope morning is as good

Ok so the first couple of times I had to get out of bed really sucked! It felt likey insodes were being ripped apart... some crying but it literally got better hour by hour. Right now its 3:30am and I can get in and out of bed. With minimal effort. I can do a brisk walk several times around the unit I can pee without difficulty I have not had any nausea whatsoever! I m getting plenty of fluids and considering what my body just went throu I feel great!

The button for everthiing. That one incisiin in the muscle its the only one I'm having any paon at all. If it wasmt for that one area Id hardly know I had anything done. I'm being discharged in a little bit.

I was so weird yesterday. .. I think I just worked myself half to death! But after a full day of rest and lots of snuggles from my kids I'm feeling much better and totally excited. Gotta go get ready to have my surgery! Check in at 11am!

First few times getting in and out of bed were really rough. I cried some. But I feel leaps and bounds better by the hour! I have been walking every 1-2 hours.. gas not a problem. Now I can take a pretty brisk wal around the unit. I have mot experienced any nausea but every sw allow makes my sleeve contracy. I feel great!

I decided I'm proud of my decision and well informed. I would rather be open and receive all the well wishes and prayers then worry about the few jerks out there. I believe this is the right option for me just as others may believe ots not. Beautiful thing about living in America is we can all believe in different things and still get along. ..

The week before my preop diet I practically ate myself sick! I'm an all or nothing kind of girl so I drank as much diet pepsi as I could until 11:59 pm and ate two bags of stacys cinnamon sugar pita chips! Those are things I will never consume again. Now that I'm on day 9 of preop I don't miss any of it.. I just want a hamburger! ! Lol...monday is the big day. I have a great time slot check in at 11:00 am... not to early but not gonna starve all day either. Good luck to all!

Surgery on monday.. started pre op Liquid Protein diet fri.. down 8.5lbs.. haven't cheated but Im a stylist and people bring Cookies and crap into the salon all day long. Very frustrating! I'm so hungry and tired but feeling much better than previous days. I'd kill for a cheeseburger hopefully that craving will go away soon... I'm past my sugar craving just want some real food. .. even if its blendarized! Favorite part of my day is when I get to take my vitamins.. I started the Bariatric Fusion chewables when I started pre op.. I get to chew them and they rast like candy! I wish I could eat the whole jar...oh well, back to my water! Can barely wait till Monday!

I had my first dr appt almost two years ago. My surgeon is a client at my hair salon... so its in my face every 4 weeks. He finally got me to his seminar and into his office. He tried to talk me into bypass but I have known too many people with bypass and... no thanks! So I put it out of my mind but continued to research vsg. Early this summer we had a change of insurance plans. While looking through it I noticed vsg was covered. I went back to my surgeon and have been researching and preping ever since. My surgery is on monday and I can't wait. Even this damn pre op diet can't get me down now! And... at 250lbs obviously food is a major issue and always will be. I just want the chance to be in control for once

Funny.. I've told just about everyone and the only people who have given me a hard time are the skinny over achiever types... you know... so skinny the still look like a sickly 12year old at 40... they are SO sure I could lose all this weight with just a few small changes in my diet. I just thank them for their concern and say... next time I see you ill be skinnier! I then get a very concerned look as I walk away smiling and glad that at least I'm not shaped like a 12 year old boy ... most everyone is excited for me

Ahh.bbq sauce... I can smell it LOL... good luck... eveyday I'm on this awful pre op diet I wake up in the morning hoping to be a size seven! I keep thinking about all the stuff I used to eat and I'm only getting like 500-600 calories now and shouldn't I just be skinny yet? That even sounds stupid to me... but whatever.. a girl can dream!
