  1. Hi! Tomorrow will be two weeks post op! I had an appt today with doc and I'm down 23pounds! As far as recovery... Very smooth! Hope the same for everyone!
  2. Doing good! Thanks for asking! How are you doing? You had your surgery already right?
  3. So the way I got over that fear is, I have a cousin who is an anesthesiologist...told me that a "person is at higher risk each that person gets in a car, the difference is you'll have a highly trained professional anesthesiologist watching over you". Hope that helps
  4. Just had my sleeve done by Dr Sergey Lyass with Oband last Friday. He is great and staff is also great!
  5. Yup, same here! I am 6 days post op, and been afraid that my stomach wasn't cut small enough! I could drink with no problem!

  8. @ I would say the pain went away on Monday, which was day 3.
  9. Four days! Everything is well! After passing gas, I was worried about not having BM! But that went to passed too! Now I'm just suffering when the wifey cooks! Smells good but i don't get hungry! She can't help it, she still has to cook for two growing boys! As far as pain, I could honestly say if I had to scale it 1-10, I would say zero! Except for those times when I forget that I had surgery recently and I move too quick, like getting up from the coach! Have no problems in keeping anything in, just got remember to sipsipsipsip! Quick recovery to all and happy sleeving to those getting ready.
  10. All is well so far...trying to get as much liquid( water) down as to avoid dehydration, sip sip sip! No major obstacles so far, no gas pain, but I've been walking since about 3hours after I was woken up from anesthesia. Keeping fingers crossed that everything stays well. Speedy recovery to all those that has had their sleeve done recently.
