I am 7 days post op today and feeling great! Down 10lbs which is awesome! I am however, disappointed that I already feel hunger coming back. My nutritionist said I wouldn't feel hungry for a year or so...I was looking forward to that! I have one more week on liquids before I can eat mushy food. So I can't stop thinking about all the food that I can't eat and wondering if I did the right thing. I really hope since its just the first week I will look at back at these thoughts and laugh once I feel so amazing after loosing a good amount of weight. Can anyone else relate to this?

Holy crap! I can only wish for that kind of transformation!

So jealous you can get all that down!

I am 4 days post op, and I cant imagine feeling hungry, I feel so full every second of every day, very uncomfortable, whatever I try to swallow feels like it sits in my chest! needless to ay I haven't drank much at all...though I try!

Steph, don't wait, it wont get better without medicine, I had it last summer from being on a bunch of antibiotics from a tick thing, Iet it go and it got so bad! The dr. called in nystatin for me today, I asked him about gas x he said it really doesn't help...so I guess I wont bother. right now I have a slight temp, freezing and really flush, I am getting nervous, but unless my temp goes to 100.5 like they said I guess I will just wait and see...I just want the first few weeks over!

It is so nice to year everyone's stories! btw I just realized I have oral thrush, so I called the on call dr. and I am assuming he will call in something? it just feels so weird when I swallow, even more so lol and I am going to ask about gas x!

day 3 post op, I havn't had any diaherria, or anything for that matter. I have come no where close to drinking enough or Water or Protein. Today I am very dizzy, I am assuming I need to drink more, but when I drink it seems to stay in my chest and It hurts. Though its still early in the day the gas in my chest seems to be better. I hope this is al normal! I am sorry you got a cold on top of this Penny! and Steph, the incisions are easiest for me too! I hear it will all get easier, it has to right!

So I am home now, but still have crazy pressure in my chest and shoulders, I think it must be gas, if it were for that I would be feeling amazing! has anyone else experienced these gas pain in your chest like I am? I am day 2 post op...

Thanks I have tried burping a lot! not much comes out, now I believe it is heartburn/reflux I am feelin, because I need omeprazole everyday or I feel it bad, and they have me on prevacid..sp? I think it must be different, other than that though this recovery is going great and I am going home today!

just got sleeved yesterday, my gas pain is all in my chest and that's what s bothering me, not the incisions! I have had to slow down drinking because it makes me feel way too full
