Hand on your heart - how bad were the first few days after getting sleeved?
Hi, 6 days out and feeling good. I really did not have any issue after surgery. I kept my mind positive that all would be ok. I was kept in the hospital overnight and up walking every hour which I believed helped me feel better. I never took one once of pain meds. My surgeon was shocked no pain meds. I never had morphine so I was afraid not sure how I would feel on it. Good luck and keep a positive mind all will be good!!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Really Regretting it.
I had surgery on Thursday and was not allowed anything until Friday and that is all liquids for the next 3 weeks. after the 3 weeks I can advance to soft foods. Surgeon said I need time for my stomach to heal. I would speak with your team and see what can be done to help,you feel a bit better.

A question does anyone feel full on the liquid diet. I have not gotten that full feeling yet. Is that feeling once we start soft foods?

I had 6 sips of decafe coffee this morning and then I realized it and stopped. My husband purchased for me. I thought I could have decafe coffee but only decafe tea. Do you think the coffee will do damage to healing my sleeve Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I was sleeved August 18th liquids not an issue to get down, but last night I was up starving at 12:30. I had more Protein but I was wondering if it was acid instead? Also having issue taking the Vitamin twice a day. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hello Out There August 2016 Sleevers!
Why is everyone getting so much gas pain up to there shoulders? The gas pains and being nauseas is what I am concerned about also. Anyone have good advice to give to help with both of these issues?

Pre/Post Surgical Plans Are Not Required
I am scheduled for August 18th and I also had to go to 6 months worth of classes. Each month a different staff member from my surgeons office conducted a class. The very first sentence they would say is we are responsible in knowing all the information in the module packet. When I went for my last visit before my upcoming surgery I was handed a test. If I did not pass the surgery was canceled. It is very important to follow what the surgeon says because you can make your self sick. i am not going to jump all the hoops I needed to get past to turn around after the surgery and do as I want. I want a healthier me. Good luck to everyone on your journey!!!
