Finally Home After Surgery

I will be totally honest, having this surgery is very big, this is something u really need to think about. I will admit the very next day I was feeling regret, but each day I'm feeling better. I had my surgery Monday & today I'm having some heartburn & diarrhea, that's nothing compared to the other days.

I'm not hungry, I only eat because I have to, to get energy. I can't wait to get over this hurdle.

Wow, I have been very scared lately -- only because my surgery is next week. Hmmmm, please keep me posted on your progress!! Sounds like you're getting better every day.

I had my surgery on June 5th. Just got home last night. Not really hungry either. Was shocked to see I had gained 11 lbs. Trying to figure out how that was possible.

Hang in there, it gets better! I was sleeved on May 25 th and exactly a week after surgery I returned to work. I was off pain meds three days after getting home. Other than some soreness and the heartburn I feel completely normal...actually better than I did before.

Your weight gain is from the IV fluids. Don't worry, it will go away soon! :)

I gets better soon.. I promise. Just keep on getting the fluids in and walk as much as you can. You will feel better in no time. By next week you will feel like a new person.

The IV fluids is the reason for the gain. Walk as much as you can and sip your liquids! By next week things will be better

My friend gained 10 lbs too. He said it was because of the liquids pumped into you. I lost 1 lb when I got home from hospital. We are all different. And that 11 lbs you will prob pee out :) hopefully.
