Well it has officially been one week since my sleve surgery!

I have been so lucky with the ease of this whole process. Dr. Aceves and his team were wonderful. I had no gas pain and very little pain at my incisions. The worst part so far was trying to choke down the nasty blue stuff for the leak test!

I am still on Clear liquids for a few more days. I am doing my best to get all the liquids and Protein in, it seems to get easier every day. I have been very lucky!

The best news is that as of this morning I have lost 21 pounds since surgery! I could not believe my eyes!

I am so so so glad to finally be on that damn loser's bench!

Glad to hear you are doing well! 21 lbs in a week is outstanding. I will warn you to sip, sip and sip. I am 15days post op and just got submitted back to the hospital for a kidney stone. I will be having surgery in the morning to remove it. Because us sleavers can't get the same amount of water down , the dr doesn't think I will be able to pass it. Apparently it's BIG! Hope you continue to have great success and enjoy watching that scale drop!

Congrats! I'm so happy to see you on the loser's bench...and 21 pounds is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

21 pounds... AWESOME!

Congrats! You're doing amazing, an inspiration to those of us following you. Keep up the good work!

Congrats VFB!!! I know contantly sipping on Water and walking as much as possible really helped me!

That is amazing. I am glad you had such a good experience and 21lbs is awesome. Good job

That's awesome. I hopefully join you on the bench soon. Surgery is tomorrow.

How did you feel postop?
