After not getting sleeved on November 6 due to a spike in my heart rate in the middle of my gallbladder/sleeve surgery, I was finally sleeved yesterday and feeling fine.

Surgery was picture perfect, I was up walking around a few hours later and broke up the one gas bubble I had.

Woke this morning and had my swallow test, no leaks and everything was perfect. Got started on my 1oz at a time Water sips and found if I could tolerate 8oz. In 4 hours I could go home....

So here I sit, warm and comfy at home. Just sipped 4oz of unjury chicken Soup over the course of an hour and still doing really well. After my bumpy start, I had a text book finish. WHEW!!!!

Pain is minimal, I only really feel it in my largest incision, of about an inch and a half and usually only when I cough.

I was at The Valley Hospital in NJ, their Bariatric surgery floor are all private rooms, and the staff was amazing. Such a positive experience overall. Biggest kudos to my surgeon, Dr. Beth Schrope, I was in amazing hands and am so happy for the decisions I made in this process

Losers bench, here I come!!!!

Glad everything went well for you. Hope mine does as well next week, 12/19 is my day!
