    I want to do this. I have never done one please tell me more.
  8. Has anyone else broken out in hives? I got my sleeve 9/29/14. Dr has allowed soft foods. I am taking slow but have broken out. I have had anything unusual to eat. Any advise?
  9. Okay here is a quick update. I had my 10 day follow up with my surgeon. I am down 12 lbs. From my surgery weight and can now have soft foods. YAY! Any good recipes out there.

    Hi Birdie77 I also got my sleeve 9/29/14. I guess that makes us sleeve buddies. :-) I look forward to hearing more on how your doing. As we are in the same boat.
  12. Hello everyone I got sleeved 9/29. My Dr had already told me I would be in the hospital 2 days for pain management. Was not bad all bariatric patients get private rooms. My procedure took a little more then an hour cause my Dr found and repaired a hernia. When I woke up in recovery with out my glasses I had an angel as my nurse. Her name was Pat she had short blond hair. She reminded me of a lovely lady who has left us a few months ago. My brother in laws mother Pat. I still tear up when I think about it cause I miss her laugh. Pat took me to my room which was really nice with lots of room for family. There were no restrictions on visiting hours as long as your respectful of other patients. The first day was okay I told them I wanted to walk before my nurse asked if I was ready. One of my daughters stayed with me the first night and most of the next day. That 2 day I tried to put off pain med cause I was supposed to go to xray at 8am. By 11am no xray pain was horrible so I asked for my pain med morphine. Finally went for xray @2:48 gosh that contrast drink was gross. But no leaks so I went from swabbing my mouth and lips to ice chips, broth, jello, water, and popsicles. Which I am still on until I go for my nutrition and vitamin classes as well as follow up with my Dr in 2 days. All in all I have been doing pretty good.

    Did anyone use an abdominal binder post op?

    The band keeps rolling up on me. :-( My body is funny shaped I have narrow waist but really big hips. I started wear girdle panties to hold me together. I actually think they hold me better. Any advise for me.
  14. I am 8 days postop. Still on clear liquids until my follow up appt in 2 days. I do not get hungry but pretty much have a bottle water in my hand at all times. My friends that have had sleeve stressed in importance of staying hydrated. Are you getting all your water? Maybe that is what your body wants.

    Decisions...decisions!

    I am new here just found out about the app. My surgery was exactly 1 week ago. My kids and my parents were there for the surgery. I was in hospital 2 nights my daughters took turns sraying with me. It does make a difference. Hope this helps. Good luck with your surgery!
