Wow. Your amazing! I pray my body responds like yours & I have a fast recovery. Your surgery obviously went very well. Kudos to your MD! Keep rocking that Sleeve! Best wishes

Thanks...

Thanks! Best of luck for your upcoming return!

Thanks!

Thanks for sharing

I'm wondering the same thing. Hope someone will chime in and give us a answer. Financially I cant afford much more time than 2 weeks. I just pray my body will agree with my bank account!

we all have different requirements from our respective surgeons...as long as each of us follow the guidelines that "our" surgeon's have out in place we should be successful. We don't want to get into the habit of questioning others instructions. Success is different for each of us. In my opinion! Best wishes to you and your journey

QUOTE="fotogrphr" thanks for the ideas... I will pack all u advised.Best wishes to you!

BryBro63- thanks for the ideas...I'm just ready to get it done and over with. My surgeon doesn't allow anything to drink 1st 24 hours (only ice chips to wet my lips) so yep I'm gonna be nursing that chapstick. Lol. Best wishes to you for a successful surgery & speedy recovery!

Just wondering what others brought in their overnight hospital bag? I don't want to bring too much and have the tendency to go overboard.

Debate66- AMAZING! wow, I wish I could have mine as outpatient. Best wishes for a speedy recovery. Please keep us all posted on your progress. Cant wait to join you on the losers bench

Congratulations on your successful surgery!

Thank you. Again congratulations & I know your going to keep rocking that sleeve

ualaw08- can you provide us with your starting stats? Weight/Height? Just wondering as I'm scheduled to be sleeved 1/13/14 and getting an idea of where somone started helps me get a gauge for where I may be. Btw I'm 5'3 HW-220

lisal3e...best wishes for your surgery & speedy recovery...1/13/14 is my date too!

Hi.. were you sleeved or did you have lap band removal? I ask because your already home on same day within a few hours and you didn't mention a leak test, so I assume you had your lap band removed??? Just asking since you post isn't very clear..anyways hope you have a speedy recovery

T-4 days!!!! I must have a burst of energy because I'm home making homemade broths/soups...using some veggies, beef bones, chicken scraps, to make veg/chicken/ beef broths & butternut squash soup). Putting them in plastic containers & freezing them so I'll have plenty on hand..doing this for 2 reasons the store bought ones have too much sodium &I dont want to retain water during post op as it can hinder my body's ability to hydrate and create variances in weighing in. And also because I don't want to have to worry about my food choices for the full liquid part of my diet which lasts for 30 days. I feel like June Cleaver! Lol

brndareyrs...Best wishes for a successful surgery! I know your going to rock that sleeve!
