checking in with February sleevers
DMJC replied to Dawn Hanaphy's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi, my surgery to remove my band and perform the sleeve was Feb 20. I have lost 46 lbs and is happy with the results so far. I like the slow weight loss because the skin is recovering nicely (no saggy skin). I am almost out of the 200s and can`t wait to get into the 100s. I have had no issues with the sleeve.

I teach preschool and took two days off. I was tried and my energy level was on zero. I told me babies I was sick and they were really good and helpful. I understand your concerns, I would hate to miss the first week of school. Sent from my SM-T820 using BariatricPal mobile app

I have no problems with food going down. I take small bites and chew my food well. I will vomit if I eat to fast or don't chew my food well. (I learned that lesson quickly). Sent from my SM-T820 using BariatricPal mobile app

I am 6 weeks post op from my revision from band to a sleeve. I have lost 27 lbs and feel great. The only difference is I don't have a port anymore. The restriction feels the same to me. I eat much less than I could with the band. My surgery was done in one operation. There were no complications. I'm very happy with the sleeve. Sent from my SM-T820 using BariatricPal mobile app

I was given hydrocodone to take every 4 hours when I was released from the hospital. I took it as directed for 2 days. Now I only take it once a day usually at bedtime. Sent from my SM-T820 using BariatricPal mobile app

Hi, I'm 5 days post op from being sleeved. I received a binder from the hospital and has not taken it off. I think it helps my pain levels. I sleep in it too. Changing positions hurts but I can sleep most of the night. What did they give you for pain? Sent from my SM-T820 using BariatricPal mobile app

Hi, I am three days post op and I feel good. My surgery took 3.5 hours because my band has slipped and cause a lot of scar tissue. I have managed pain and no gas issues. My Dr kept me in the hospital an extra day because of dehydration. I'm having the no problems at all. Sent from my SM-T820 using BariatricPal mobile app
