Ah thank you!! I sure do just take it and off to sleep I go lol

I've had my two week follow up and told him about the pain and he said it's to be expected because of the healing of big incision. I'm trying to see my GP next week will definitely let y'all know the outcome.

Thank you guys!!

Congratulations!!!
I had my 1st weigh in today and happy to say I lost 25 pounds yayy me
My doctors also said I could return to work if I felt ok. I started back this Monday and could not do it the whole day so I'm now doing half days until I have the energy to day full days.

Congrats again and keep up the work!! [emoji6]

Hi Kim,
I'm not in Scotland but I'm England
I had my sleeve done on the 6th of March

A wise soul once told me "you lose weight to look good in clothes. You work out to look good naked." I agree!

Yesterday was the 1st time since my surgery on the 7th that I actually felt hungry I only had a little broth with smashed Beans which was good. I'm still learning the signs of being full...hope I find out soon because I don't want to over eat.

I was sleeved on 3/1. It took about a week for most of the soreness in my abdomen (right side) to go away. Try walking and moving as much as you can. It helps.

I would recommend you do absolutely NOTHING BUT REST the first week and see how you feel. My first three days felt like a truck ran me over time and again. My 4th day I was already feeling better and a week out, I went back to my normal routine.
I really truly owe it to my husband. He wouldn't let me move. He literally fought me down to stay put. He was on top of me taking my pain meds before I was uncomfortable and my anti nausea meds so I wouldn't throw up... He took care of the kids completely (I have a 3 and a 5yr old).
I truly believe my fast recovery is 100 percent me giving my body a full week of doing absolutely nothing but rest...
I was.sleeved.on Tues 2/14 and the following Monday, I drove my kids to school and was.back to mommy schedule... not at full capacity and I still needed to rest, but I was.more.than okay with basic tasks..

I have tried to keep upbeat during my journey even though it has been through it all. Band 2009 revised to sleeve 2014 and revising to bypass in April. One thing that I do know, is if I hadn't been through this journey, I would still be diabetic. I take the good with the bad and being diabetic for me was the really really bad. My family has had both my maternal great grandmother and grandmother losing legs to diabetes, my mother is diabetic and when I was diagnosed in my 30s I wasn't having any of that. Yes I have had so many complications, but I also have my life and I am thankful for that. I am concerned that someone on this page is so adamant on not getting revised that they are trying to scare people into making decisions that are only their own to make, not their families, not truly their spouses, this decision is truly only between that person and their doctor. My spouse is supportive, my mother is not. I don't really care. I have not been diabetic since 2009 and that was my main goal!

Hello all,
I just had my surgery on Tuesday 7th 2017 I was sent home on the 9th. Everything is going well I'm not hungry at all but I'm still trying to get some Protein in. The problem I'm having is when I cough...oh boy does it hurts.
Anybody else have their problem and when does it go away.
