Good Luck!!

Good luck to you too! I'll be excited to hear how you are doing after surgery.

I just got home..was discharged at 8pm. Had to fill my perk prescription...i am just really sore on my lower belly area. I had a total of 7 incisions but so far i cant tell a difference that 80% of my stomach is gone. I did chug water by accident and i def felt that..was like a tight feeling. Overall i had a great experience in the hospital...no complications...no nausea and had a great nursing staff. I am super bloated from all the saline i was given though so i am not even going to weight myself till next week. My abdomen is bloated too from the gas but that hasn't been bad at all actually. Hope the other 9/3, 9/4 and 9/5's are doing great!

Did your doctor tell you how much of your stomach he removed? How did they decided? Just curious if they remove less are you less likely to have a leak? I am so nervous about my surgery. I am just thinking about all the bad stuff.

we are with you scorp

welcome abby

I am getting my sleeve on September 11th....4 more days!! Wedding on the 8th, wooping cough shot on the 9th, liquids on the 10th and surgery the 11th...Sooooo excited~~~!

Actually i forgot to ask..i was thinking about that after i saw him yesterday. The day of surgery i was so out of it that he spoke to my mom and then saw me yesterday and he went over things. I am going to ask on my follow up next week to see how much they removed. I do know he said they switched to a 40 sized bougie because people were reacting better to it than the 32 bougie he was using. The difference between the two is only a few millimeters so i am not exactly worried.

Now i just have to focus on getting this gas out!! haha Seems to mostly be going south which im fine with but my abdomen is still all bloated so i haven't weighed myself since im sure i weigh more.

Day 3 post op...and i woke up feeling like someone punched me in the stomach...but its tolerable and they gave me perks. I figured the 3rd day would be the worse. I will say that i cant even tell they did anything to my stomach..the pain was all on the incisions. So far i am happy with my decision. :wub:
