  9. You don't take the glue off, it will eventually start to come off itself, but no not pull it off! I was able to take shower the day after discharge. I had overnight stay in hospital. Your surgeon or nurse should have instructed you on discharge. You can always follow up with your MD office if you have questions about incision site & care.

  14. Hello fellow May 9th Sleevers! I just wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing. It's our 2 month anniversary of our new life style. It has truly and still a learning experience for me. I have struggled with my water intake, although I've hit my protein goals daily since day one. I have just now began to get water goals in, but its a daily struggle.

  21. I thought I remembered you posting that you were from Texas, so am I. I'm glad you contacted the your surgeon. I pray for healing. Keep us posted.
  22. As a nurse all of these surgical incisions concern me. Wow, Nifty you put sutures in yourself? Please guys go to the doctor. #concerned
  23. Chavon, May I ask where you had surgery? In the states?
  24. That's awesome news!!! [emoji1433]
  25. Walk, walk, walk, walk, walk & walk some more! [emoji16]
