Sleeved 11/14 my third day out and to be honest I feel amazing besides the little gas pain I've been experiencing in my back and upper chest I'm just now able to drink the Protein shake and I've been moving around great no pain in surgery sites at all. The only thing I really struggled with right after surgeries was the different nausea medicine they tried to give me I threw up and even the nausea medication they prescribed me I threw I have learned to just suck it up and I'm getting threw it just fine walking around and back rubs lol help moving it around till it eventually comes out.

Hello... surgery went great thanks for all the kind words...the only thing I really struggled with is keeping the nausea medicine down.. it was giving to me through the the iv I seemed to throw up every time it was giving to me... yesterday took some pain meds thinking it will help with the gas pain but I threw it up as well... I've been passing gas which good and I'm having real bad back pain other than that I've been feeling great ???????????? Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Im 5wks post op and was like you. The morning of surgery, my nurses that helped prep me was just so calming that i wasnt stressed anymore. Now i live in pensacola fl, and my dr is just so sweet, he gives you his cell phone number and say call if u feel like anything is wrong. I had surgery at 730am and was done at 1040. He ended up removing my gallbladder and repairing a huge hernia that i didnt know i had. I was on a iv the first day, the next morning, they sent me down to xray for a upper g.i. to make sure that my pouch wasnt leaking. After that test, i was allowed to sip on Water and juice. The next morning i was given watery cream of wheat, Jello, juice. I couldnt stand any of it, i didnt want any of jt. Now that first day after surgery, that afternoon they got me up to walk. I had 3 c-sections, so i kinda knew what to expect. The more you walk, the better you feel. Some people get really bad gas, i didnt, but i also went for 3wks without a bowel movement. I had to start taking something to go, and it wasnt nice. But since then, i started out wearing a 3x, 5wks later im down to a large. I havent stepped on the scales , i never do unless im at the drs. I go by my clothes, and im happy with that. That was all in 1 month. I only had 100lbs to lose and by the way thats going, i should reach that goal by Feb. 1 thing is true for me is that right after surgery, my taste completely changed. I drunk my Protein shakes everyday but now, anything that has dairy, i cant keep down. So im having to get my protein from food. Everyone is different, but just do what your dr and nutritionist tell you to do and you will be great. You'll do great Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App Thank you... I've had 3 c-sections as well and they say it's not as bad do if I can handle that I should be good lol... that's great tho thanks for sharing with me.

That's another thing I'm nervous about is the nausea cuz throwing up will most likely be painful cuz u really don't know how much you use you stomach until it's the only choice had three c-sections soo I can just imagine with this surgery Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App
