Way to go.... I was exactly one week ahead of you (Dr. Barnes at Forest Park). Did you go to Forest Park? Excellent place. You will be so surprised how well you feel in a week. I still have some soreness around the left large incision (more tender and swollen) but I went back to work full time yesterday and did very well.

Keep walking! take care of yourself!

Congratulations! Glad to hear your surgery went well and you are home. I am looking forwarding to reading your posts as your weight drops off!

Hey Joe,

I was just wondering a few things...Are you cold? I have been quite chilly. Do you still have your staples? I am supposed to get them taken out on Tuesday .

Not having any pain today, but my stomach is rolling quite a bit. I am thinking that is my tummy emptying. Keep me posted and let me know how you are doing..

hi joes, I just added you as a friend so I can watch what you're up to!

I was sleeved Monday 3/7 by Dr. Kim too. I ended up staying an extra day in the hospital, i think because of a reaction to the anesthesia - I wasn't able to get anything down until wednesday morning, so they kept me in the hospital on an IV.

It's slow going at home, but it's getting a little easier every day, so i'm hopeful.

I'm looking forward to following your progress, since we're sleeve buddies.

Congrats!!!
