Uggh. Frustrating. Hope it all works out.

Good luck. Hope it works out.

Yes. I had to give myself injections for a week after surgery.

I had a temp of 99.7 after surgery and my doc said it was okay. Just keep using spirometer to prevent pneumonia and keep drinking fluids.

I hear you. It’s tough cooking pasta for my kids....I had sleeve surgery on 7/10 and prior to surgery I was a total pasta-carb addict in general. Very tough to be around “normal” food but eventually we will be able to have nibbles.

Sorry. Put this post in the wrong section.

Hi all. Three weeks post op. One of my incision sites is giving me a lot of pain. It’s healed and looks fine but it’s very painful. Anyone else still have this at this point?

Hi all. Three weeks out from being sleeved and I am having the worst pain this morning at one of my incision sites. I know it’s only three weeks but was hoping this would start to go away at this point. Did a lot of walking yesterday. Just woke up and in pain. Anyone else get the same thing?

Cream of wheat sounds good as well as grits

It is strange. Their directions both pre op and post op vary so vastly!

Yogurt,cottage cheese,stuff like that.

Sorry folks for the misspellings. That required me to drink from a teeny tiny cup.

After my sleeve on July 10th before discharge I had a swallownstidy thstvreiired me to drink from a teeny tiny cup. It was next to nothing.

Thanks for the responses all.

I’m 18 days post op and now eating puree. I am allowed tuna and chicken with low fat mayo and other fish. Sometimes I feel like it gets stuck in my stomach but most times it’s okay. I can’t wait to eat a meatball again someday.

Oh okay. All of these things make sense. I’ll avoid it.

Hi there. I have moderate sleep apnea and wear a cpap that was diagnosed during my one sleep study. My only requirement for surgery was that I brought my cpap to hospital. I was sleeved on July 10th. Best of luck to you.

Wow. I am dying for s nice bowl of oatmeal but I will follow my plan.

Makes sense. Thanks.

Ahhhh. Got it. Thanks.

Hi all-I was sleeved on July 10th and am now eating puréed foods. I have a list of no nos from my surgeon and one is oatmeal. Does anyone know why?

One night.

Hi there. Ok. Another option. Discussing with my md today.

Hang in there...it gets better!

I had my sleeve on July 10th. I am healing relatively easily and am losing. I was scared pre op after reading these boards because some people have a really rough time. I have accepted that this surgery is just a tool that I’ll use to hopefully get to my goal weight and I’ll have to change my life in many ways to get there but I would say “yes”, it’s been worth it for me.
