Im not getting sleeved til the .19th eek ! but tomorrow is the 1st is any one having it done ? how are you doing

One day post op and I have to say the surgery itself was not that bad. I was out patient so I came home within a couple of hours. The first thing I discovered is that the Tylenol with codeine would not stay down so I guess I am going this painkiller free. Liquids are not my friend either.

hope your coping with out the pain med s when i had the band fitted i used kids liquid pain medicine it was for age six plus took 15ml when i could and that helped x

I was supposed to be Oct 31 but Sandy pushed it back to 11/1. I stayed one night in the hospital and left the next evening. It's been okay.

The pain isn't bad. Liquids were easy. My surgeon has me on puréed foods already which is a little tougher. The hospital meal was a meat, vegi and potato. I really just ate the meat and liquids and skipped the rest. That fits in with what my NUT told me and honestly it's all I can do.

your doing great to be on that stage so fast. hope sandy didn't affect you too much .

I had the same Sandy pushed me from the 30th to 11/2. I am on pureed food as of today too- ahead of schedule. Sticking mainly to a shake or two a day, puréed split pea soup and puréed beef stew. I made all homemade so I know exactly what is in them. I used my normal spices so I can taste something good. So far, no issues but today I ate too much of the puréed stew and I was definitely "Christmas" full off about 1/3 cup. But now I know. So far I am at a standstill at 12 lbs post op and 20 total but I think my body is just catching on to the dramatic change in eating habits.
