Sleeved on weds 12/7, home the next day. Walked a mile on my treadmill tonight. I have not had any pain, just some discomfort from the gas but nothing much. Had a terrible time dishing up dinner for my kids tonight. Meatloaf and mashed potatoes. Ugh!! Keeping my sights on those full liquids next week!! LOL

See? I wish all the doctors would say this same thing! I specifically asked about poached eggs, since they're a favorite of mine, and was told no uncooked yolk. ......sigh..... Frustrating. I will probably just cook them a tiny bit more to bring the temp up without cooking though, then mix them with cottage cheese or something.

It was Vienna sausages they are soft it's like potted meat. He upgraded me to purée last Tuesday. A month to six weeks after depending on my sleeve. Plus I only have premier Protein shakes omg those things are too sweet and thick in my mouth I hate and I don't feel full

Hi there! I was sleeved on Weds 12/7. Came home Thurs evening. I also had a long pre op program, going to the first informational meetin in March, then 6 mo with the dietician, psych assessment, etc. I finally got my insurance approval the end of Oct.
How are you feeling now? My biggest problem in the hospital was back pain due to arthritis. Tonight I walked a mile in my treadmill. Trying to get past being head hungry!!!!! Tonight dishing up dinner for my kids - meatloaf and mashed potatoes- about did me in!! The only thing that kept me from taking a bite of those potatoes was knowing what would happen seconds later! This is the toughest stage for me so far.

I have been on Biotin since I my last round of chemo 2 1/2 years ago. I have had no problems with unwanted hair growth.

This is so crazy to me. I have eagerly looked at everyone's weight loss timelines, believing while at the same time wondering, how it could possibly be? And here I am!

My husband said this morning, "Wow! Your face looks thinner today!" My mom didn't know I was having surgery. The day I started the pre-op diet I dropped her off at the airport. I'll be picking her up on Tuesday, curious to see if she notices enough to say anything.
Its only been a few days, but giving my kids meals is getting easier. Last night I was at a restaurant with friends (an event planned months ago, before I had a surgery date) and I survived watching them eat. Got myself the house chicken noodle Soup and just ate the broth. Today is cooking baking day with my kids. That should be interesting. I anticipate frequent breaks. LOL

I was sleeved on 12/7. Tonight was the first time I had to feed my kids. It was very difficult for me. All 6 of my kids at home are disabled, and 2 need help with eating. Givi g bites of mealtoaf and mashed potatoes about did me in! But I made it through. One day at a time. Have my sights on full liquids next week.

Congrats!!! How does a stomach spasm feel? Every time I drink something I have to burp. I'm hoping this too shall pass. But other than that just soreness and still a little gas pain. I'm day 4 post op. I'm doing better than what I thought I was gonna do, all glory goes to God for that and for him blessing me with an awesome surgeon.

Hello, I'm Kelli and I had my sleeve surgery on Tuesday, Dec 6 at UTMB in Galveston, TX. I'm so glad to be home now resting in my own bed. My hospital stay was not very pleasant. I'm looking forward to learning from all of you here and hopefully I can help others as well. My insurance required a long pre op program that was started back in March!

I was sleeved yesterday and have ZERO pain. I hope the same happens for you!
Sent from my SM-G928P using the BariatricPal App

I was sleeved yesterday along with hiatal hernia repair. I have ZERO pain related to my surgery. No nausea. Nothing.
What I do have is excruciating back pain that is absolutely positional. My back is full of chemo-induced arthritis . When they got me to my room my back spasmed and I came flying off the bed. I needed to stand up straight. This freaked the nurses out a little bit. I told them to get rid of the bed, I would just be in the recliner, which is where I've been ever since. My pain has never been above 3, and again thats my back, not anywhere else. I have had 14 surgeries in the last 2 years so maybe my pain threshold is a bit higher than typical. I also have a tendency to not be able to sleep after surgery so I accepted the dilauded knowing I would at least get to sleep.
I go home this afternoon and resume life. It's been 8 months waiting for this, now lets get in with the show, shall we?

I have had ZERO pain from this surgery. Not even kidding.the only pain I have is from my back, which stops the second I stand up. No nausea. Nothing.
