Lol, if you get any rest tonight I will be amazed and you will have to tell me your secret. Congrats! I bet you are so excited.

Ambien was a life saver the night before surgery. Just relax the best you can. Early surgery time is good, gets you in your room and healing sooner. It will all be over before you know it. Keep us updated!

I will keep you in my healing prayers! Remember not to be too hard on yourself after- you wont be able to get much liquid in for a few days and you should just relax and reat and heal and take little walks and just be happy to begin your wonderful journey!

My vlog- link below from May 9th on may help as that is when I had my sleeve.

RELAX! BREATHE! See you on the loser's bench!

Walk walk walk. That is what most people say. My really bad gas pain lasted only a day and a half and then I developed the charming proclivity for burping with EVERY sip I take- not to mentione tons out the other way too so my gas dissipated. Now I still have all of it- with every sip.

Hoefully if you walk a lot and sip a lit you will get rid of it too.

Great to have you on the Loser's Bench!

Congrats Hollie!! This is the first day (post op day 4) that I'm feeling a little morelos myself. I was having issues taking any liquid in at the hospital so they kept me an extra night so I didn't come home until yesterday afternoon. The gas is absolutely the worst but they said just walk as much as possible and it will help. One good thing is that I've lost almost 6 lbs since surgery day but its probably bc I wasn't taking anything in except liquids in am IV.

GLAD YOU ARE FEELING BETTER! 6 weeks (heck probably 6 days) from now, we will have forgotten the bad and be focusing on the amazing progress we are making towards being the best version of ourselves we can be.
