I was sleeved yesterday (10/19). Got home around noon today. All I can say is, I never expected to be in this much pain. You can't find a comfortable position to rest in either. Sucking down the pain meds though. Excited to be a part of this group! Where is everybody from?

Funny you should say Columbia.... that is where my husband is from (Bunkerhill area). Pain is better today. I just started taking childrens tylenol so I wouldn't be so zombied out and in pain. It really did quite well. Since I couldn't get comfortable in any position I tried, I basically roamed around the house until I could sit still somewhere.

I had a 10 day pre op diet of Protein Shakes (3 per day/low carb/low sugar), dinner consume one Weight Watcher or Lean Cuisine. Could drink juice (limit to 2 cups a day) or sugar free beverage (any amount). sugar free Jello or pudding (any amount), sf popcicles or sf fudge sticks (any amount). I was already under my desired pre surgery weight so I just tried to stick to this as a trial run.

Thanks for asking!

hi glad to hear that you are doing better with the pain. I am on a horrible strictly Protein diet, only sugar free popsicles, low sodium broth, Protein Shakes, no food at all :( but surprisingly i am doing okay with it, not hungry, just irritable :rolleyes: how much did you lose on the 10 day diet? Keep in touch. Be encouraged....

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
