    Hi everyone, I had the sleeve done yesterday. It was a midday op, and I was able to get out and about by the evening. Walking is all good but my stamina has dropped significantly… so we all need to pace ourselves!

    I don’t really have much pain, like what some of the others have posted here it’s more of the bloating sensation and tightness around the lungs from the insufflation of the tummy during the op. There’s significant referred pain to the shoulders as well from the diaphragm.

    I’ve only dared to sip Water so far, and when I swallowed one of the painkiller tablets while I had a pretty bad wave of nausea but thankfully didn’t throw up. Warm Water seems to help a lot more, and looking forward to clearing the leak tests so I can switch that to a peppermint tea.

    Wishing everyone with surgery coming up all the very best! You’re not alone in this :)

    Yesssss…. Congratulations 🎊 mine is it tomorrow 6/6

    Hi guys. Well…,. I’ve had the bypass and have been out of theatre for a few hours now. No gas pain at all and I can now get up to use the bathroom without the nurse providing I take it a little slower (anaesthetic still a little present). I’m doing good guys - just now going to watch Netflix on my iPad. I’m also going to now brave taking tiny sips of Fluid for the first time 😘🤗

    Yessssss….. I’m so happy to hear that congratulation 😘💪🏾

    Good morning to all, I am on my third day, I just happened to start mines 3 weeks earlier than my surgery so this is my test week but so far so good, it's been hard it's been testing and trying I cheated yesterday just a Teensy winsy bit but I'm back on it this morning and I have to be determined like when they told me I had to stop smoking after smoking for years, I just cold turkey quit so I guess I'm going to have to do the same thing with this liquid stuff. Again good luck to all.

    You got this 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
