  6. I also had a low BMI weighting 185. I'm on my 3rd day post op and still puffy. I was back up to my pre op weight so I knew it had to be fluids. Can't wait to feel a little normal again.

  11. By my 4th day I wasn't hungry even had a burst of energy. I didn't know I had the will power.
  12. Had my sleeve done 2 days ago. I feel worse now than right after. Every muscle in my body hurts. It hurts my calves just to walk. I can't feel my stomach still under numbing meds. A lot of gurgling going on. Hope it gets better soon!

  16. Let'sgetgoing2018. Hope you feel better! I leave the hospital today. I haven't had any nausea just gas pain. Trying chicken broth now. ☺️
  17. Had my surgery yesterday. It's almost 2 in the a.m. Had alittle trouble breathing when I came out but it got better. Shoulders and belly hurt from the gas but I've been up walking. Just got my first popsicle YUM! Nurse said I'm doing better than any one on the floor. No pain except the belly gas. I was so scared but it's turning out very well!! ????????
  18. It's actually tomorrow the 11th! A little nervous but I'm ready! Never thought I could go so long without food. My will power is somewhat lacking but this has really strengthened me. Life changing ?
