Hello Oct Sleevers
I had my sleeve done yesterday afternoon and im doing well. Not much pain but I had some nausea. I have my swallow nest in a few hours. I have been thirsty but not hungry. Three of the nurses here had the sleeve done by my surgeon I. They all look good.

Hey everyone, I was sleeved at 9:30 this morning everthing went very well. I remember going into the operating room but only I was only awake for a few minutes. I had to have a hitial hernia repair as well.
When I woke up from surgery the gas pain in my chest was at a level of 5 or 6. I was given pain medication, when i got to my room from recovery I was ready to walk . I put my pajamas on and I walked and I'm no longer experiencing gas pains and that's so awesome. I've been increasing my walking time a little at a time. I'm up to 5 laps on my hospital floor.
As far as resting, I've been resting pretty well. Nurses are constantly in but their awesome! I have my chest x-ray and leak test in the morning. After that I'll start my clear liquid diet. Guys I'm so glad I don't feel hungry.
I know there are a lot of people getting sleeved on Wednesday, October 8th. I wish you all the best and a speedy recovery!

Hey everyone, I know we have an October thread but I wanted to create one specifically for those of us being sleeved on next Monday and Tuesday. I think it would be awesome for us to support each other and actually follow each other post-op.
I'm being sleeved on Tuesday, October 7th! Wow still can't believe I have 6 days remaining. I'm not nervous at all just excited and ready to start my journey. My husband thinks something is wrong with me because I'm not nervous lol.
Like many of you I've been battling my weight since childhood. I'm 35 years old with a BMI of 44 and 5 months ago I said no more diet pills and no more starving myself for only a 10 lbs lost. I've never been below 200 lbs. in my adult hood.
Guys I told my mom yesterday and now I'm regretting it. Her response was the following "why don't you just diet" . I couldn't believe it, I absolutely could not believe it. Anyway I had to brush that off very quickly and continue my conversation with my mom without exposing my true feelings. I'm not discouraged just wishing I wouldn't had sad anything.
I'm moving forward, all my thoughts are centered around Tuesday morning. I wish all of you the best and please keep each other lifted up pre and post op.

Hey NC Girl, I'm from Greenville, NC. It's great to finally chat with someone from the NC . I'm scheduled for October 7th!!! I'm so excited, starting my pre-op diet next Tuesday 9/23. Let's stay in touch. Best wishes!

Wishing all October 6th sleevers the best today and a quick recovery! Keep us posted.

GL to all the sleevers today! Prayers for you and your families for a safe and speedy recovery and for the new phase of your journeys. I am going get my blood work redone in just a few minutes and I look forward to my surgery tomorrow.... It's here finally ????.
