3 days post-op vsg

Cant believe how much that hurt! BUT i am feeling so much better each day. I am like a beached whale...cannot get up or down by myself--the fam finds this quite amusing. dont even try laughing...killer pain. I am still taking oral pain meds but not as much. I am getting in some protein and water. Curiously i am thinking about real food...the tv ads are ridiculous. never realized every other commericial was for a restaurant. I have faith that this is gonna all be worth it. first preop appt tomorrow.

It will be sooo worth it, I promise. In a couple of weeks the difference will be noticeable, inches wise and lb wise. The loss tapers off slowly.I lost 14 lbs the first week and 10 the second now I lose 5 lbs a month.It's an amazing ride. Walk,sip and rest. I did have hair issues but it is leveling off and I am glad!!!! Take care!

congrats! you've been sleeved. just think you feel bad but you were well enough to send a post that's a blessing in it's self. i have not had my surgery yet but i can't wait to be where you are three days out. i pray all continues to go well for you. God Bless

You are doing great.. Three days post op I was in the emergency room with dry heaves and I couldn't stop crying.lol The first few days are the toughest..

I am now 8 days post op and feel almost normal..
