I'm 5 days post op and the pain I have is ok. Just rest as much as you can. Continue to do the clear liquids don't want to make it thicker and possibly cause more pain. I have been craving for chicken and shrimp. Good Luck

You look great. I'm 5 days post op and I'm struggling. How did you do it?

Last night was the worst night. I couldn't sleep at all I just want this recovery process to be over with already.

I'm 5 days post op and have been sleeping on back since my sleeve but tonight I just can't get comfortable and I'm extremely tired. So I'm going to attempt to sleep on my side with the body pillow I had from my pregnancy and see how this works tonight. If I don't get sleep I feel myself becoming very aggravated

I had my sleeve done 2 days ago and I must say it isn't that bad as far as pain compared to the first night. The night after surgery is just so painful. Today I drank some chicken broth, protein shake, and now I'm sipping on some water. Still a little pain but I walked around today and it helped.

Yea the hick ups were hurting earlier but have slowly gone away and now I'm passing gas but it's part of the process and my doctor says I'm going home today yay so I'm excited about that.

Hello, today I had my surgery and I must say overall I'm doing great. I pretty much been sleeping all day and did some walking. I just have the hick ups a lot which is causing some pain. Thank you all again for the support

Thank you for your responses. It's truly been helpful.

Thank you ladies. Lizbiz that would be great. I'm excited and nervous at the same time.

My sleeve was schedule for 8/29 but my doctor already had a procedure schedule and his office got it mixed up. So mine was pushed back to 9/5. As the days get closer I'm getting nervous and the fact that I have no one to go with me to the hospital doesn't make it any easier. Right about now I'm needing some words of encouragement

It's getting closer and closer. I have my pre op appointment in the morning and I'm excited. I wish you all the best of luck

I went to my Dr today to sign my consent papers. Friday the 22nd is my pre op and then surgery on the 29th. I'm getting so excited about it. My Dr also put me on a protein diet until my surgery so I'm enjoying my good today. Lol.

Thank you and Good Luck to you too

I'm going on august 29th and I'm so excited. Good Luck to everyone

I just got approved today for the sleeve and I'm scheduled to have it done in 2 weeks. Do you any suggestions for me as I get ready to start my Journey?
