stacielynntate replied to SnohoGal98296's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
good luck. If you surgery team is anything like mine where they walk you thru what is going to happen you will do good. I like that because it helped me feel safe as they went through the procedure. -

hi Sarah yes I just got home. My husband and sons got me all set up in my room and they left to go do the grocery shopping. I'm feeling good finally passing gas so it's a good sign. Also,just had my first sips of protein shake and no issues. Tomorrow I can. Start soft foods. I did take some pain mess after getting home since it was an jour drive so I'm ready for a nap. Thanks for checking on me. -

Band to sleeve revision question
stacielynntate replied to MzDimplezNYC's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
I got my revision surgery yesterday. The hardest part was my dr was running 3 1/2 hours late. I'm so grateful that the band didn't cause any damage or major scar tissue. Pain is really only bad when I move and get up. I started walking 3 hours after getting to my room and it feels good. Also man never thought water tasted so good by the time I could have it I had gone 24 hrs since the last I could have any Tuesday because of the delay. Good luck to the upcoming revisions. -

I had my revision from the bad to the sleeve yesterday after a 3 1/2 hour delay. I'm so happy the band didn't cause to much damage so my dr could do the sleeve. I started waking 3 hours after getting to my room. Pain is not that bad just sore when I move or first get up. Sips of water never tasted so good when I was finally able to have again. No issues with it either. Now I'm just looking forward to figuring out my new stomach. Good luck to the upcoming surgeries. -

Scared and confused
stacielynntate replied to Cluelessx7's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
. When you talk to him explain how you feel and why you want to do it. It may also help to have Jim go to an apt with you so he can hear from the dr as well. As for going through this with young kids I'm having my surgery tomorrow and I have a 3 year old. Good for me my husband stays home with our boys do I will have the help with them. -

Should I try Protein Shakes Now or Just Wait?

Not even been to the appointment yet.....
stacielynntate replied to MS_Science_Sleever's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I got the band in 2008 and at that time it was that or bypass and I didn't like the moving if things with the bypass. Fast forward to today after losing 121 lbs and having a baby my band is just making me sick. Sometime to come out on Wednesday and get the sleeve. Just praying the band hasn't caused a lot of damage or scar tissue so my dr can do the sleeve. just remember no question is to small to ask. Your dr should be able to help answer any you have and give you all the data to make a choice that is best for you. -
