Hi all, new here! My surgery was on July 5th! To those who still are waiting, in my opinion, the gas once I woke up in recovery was the worst, but will subside over the first two days. A week out now and I’m feeling pretty good, with a lot of energy! I hope the same for all of you!

One week out update: down 10 lbs, and am in minimal pain. So far, constipation pains were the worst, lol. I thought my staples may have ripped but then when I went... I was fine lol. I think the hardest part is the mentality, I would love some bready product right now, haha!

My sister who got the sleeve 2 years ago gave me this advice and it's rang true for me: every day you'll be able to drink a little more water than the next. Dont worry about the 64 oz just yet, it's impossible. They day I came home I couldnt drink 20oz even, I just did enough to stay hydrated. Today is day 10 post for me and I only reached the goal yesterday. At my week post op visit, they said I should be around 50oz right now. Sow but steady!

I think this person is trolling you all. I commend all of you for wanting to help this person if they are legitimate because that is what we do on here. This one seems too defiant and unwilling to consider any recommendations which just smacks of trolling. I wish this person the best if they are legit and implore them to get help right away if they are legit. But saying that they will seek help but it will not make a difference seems a little fishy. If someone does not think therapy will make a difference they simply do not go. If someone wants help they do not reject every offer of help that is provided. This post does not ring true for me. We have legitimate people on here that deserve our support and help.

Feel like I've ripped a couple new buttholes at this point just from the pre-op diet. The ONLY thing I have found that works is Dulcolax soft chews. I've been taking Colace twice a day and adding benefiber to my water/shakes and it just wasn't helping. Like at all. The soft chews are my saving grace and I will continue them until hopefully the constipation is a thing of the past.

Wiping my own butt without breaking my back trying to reach ??‍♀️

I was in the hospital one night. Once you do your dye test to make sure there's no leaks in your stomach, they should start giving you water and if you hold it down for three hours, you should be discharged I went in on 7/5 at about 7am, and left the next day at 12:30 pm.

Thank you. I needed to hear this. I'm just heading out the door for mine. I'll post later (when I'm up to it)
