erikab got a reaction from Cath226 in 61 next month
I came home from the hospital yesterday morning after my surgery Monday late afternoon. Everything went text book according to my doctor. I have a pump inserted for direct site pain relief and have only used 2 pain pills. I am able to walk around easily and the only gas pain i had was right after the surgery. I'm feeling pretty good and am very happy that everything went so well.

erikab got a reaction from Julie norton in Surgery at 56?
This is my first post on this site. I'm 61 and having my sleeve done tomorrow the 17th. I'm nervous but reading all these posts from all of us in the same age range makes it much easier. Thanks all.

You literally created this profile an hour ago to try and damage control. Seriously, I've never seen anyone try and cover something up as badly as you all are right now.
Stay far away from these people, folks.

Hey. There's been a lot of activity on the April Sleevers support group if you want to see more updates.
I am 2 weeks post op and on soft foods. I can just about get a poached egg down but that's the absolute capacity even a sip of Water on top hurts. So that's Breakfast. I can also get a pouch of tuna down for lunch and then have a shake to make up the Protein. They now go down quicker and don't taste quite as bad as they did in the liquid stage. Every day is better and I can drink and eat more. I went back to work day 4 and was walking a couple of miles a day.
Got back on the golf course day 10 and was able to walk and carry bag for 9 holes.
It's definitely a work in progress and I'm only down 14lbs but no regrets and very excited for what's to come.

I'm in the middle of preparing for surgery, and no one but my husband and my doctor know. I've tried every diet out there, and nothing has worked. People who know me, love me, and work with me have seen my ups and downs through the years. I've done Weight Watchers at work, so my struggle to lose is not a secret. I am, however, reluctant to broadcast this based on my previous inability to to lose and maintain.
