How Are Those Of You That Are Post-Sleeve?

Just wondered how all of those that have been sleeved are doing?

I am doing fantastic. Keep wondering if Dr Kelly really did do a surgery as I feel so good. But when I go to stand up I feel a tiny bit of tenderness & then remember I did have an operation!

Glad I can have some fluids now. Going to go out for chicken broth soon. Yum!

My incisions look very healthy, but one is kind of looking a bit open, but not leaking or anything. So guess it is fine, but will check with the Dr.

Have pain meds, which I haven't taken yet & will also check if I have to take them or only if needed. Then an antibiotic & something else for the stomach healing.

So good to be on the other side now!!!

Hope you are all doing just as well.

  • Don't worry hon, you would know if things weren't going well. Some of us get these perfect surgical experiences with zero pain and no complications... that is more the norm, so enjoy it!

  • I feel the same way! I'm 17 days out and I feel GREAT.

  • I'm 12 days out and doing great! Still having trouble getting in all my fluids, especially after switching to pureed foods this week. I've started using a timer to keep track of when to drink and eat.

Hello, my fellow May Sleevers, My surgery was on 5/7 and I'm feeling great ! Going to the gym 6 days a week before work or as soon as i wake on my days off. Now i just added my personal trainer on Fridays also. Can you say "Weight Be Gone"!!! Lol, I hope you all can help me with the eating. smh, hasn't been the easiest bcs i seem to either eat my small portion too quick or i'm not chewing it thoroughly. either way its painful and it takes about an hour for the discomfort to go away. Any Advice besides the obvious? I'm down 40 lbs and looking forward to going shopping. Any ideas on desserts? low fat, low carb of course. :D
