3 days post-op

I just have a couple of questions... 1 has anyone had blurry vision close up after surgery? 2 is anyone's sites on their stomach very sore on the inside (I have one on the right side under my breast that it burns on the inside). I was told this is the one he did the most work out of. I have not heard anyone talk about this on here. Other than these concerns I can't believe I can get so full on so little. Oh.... One more thing today I am down to the weight I was the morning i went to the hospital at. When does the scale start going down? I have a BMi of 36 and I know I will come off slower just looking for some input.

Each day you are going to notice substantial improvements! I had a few "oh my god' date=' what have I done to myself" moments a few days post op, but it just keeps getting better and better![/quote']

So far you are exactly right describing my experience. Does the wad hunger ever go away? Today I wished I could eat a lot. ???? Im mourning the loss of my stomach. How sad.

Hey cynic figure! Finally got sleeved! Now just to get enough fluids down to keep from being dehydrated! Lol! I hate the feeling of being so weak and tired too but I keep yelling myself its only been 3 days. I tried beef broth last night and discovered that I will never eat it again as the smell alone was a huge turn off for my stomach. However I have not been hungry even though I've been around people who were cooking some yummy smelling things! Lol

I had mine on the 21st. it's been a lot harder than i anticipated. I have 6 incisions with the largest on my left side. that is where the worst pain is. a burning stabbing pain when I get up and down etc. but it has improved. I wonder if it hurts most because its the bigger cut where they took out my stomach or is it the area where they actually cut your stomach inside that causes the pain. I'm not able to keep down the protein drinks at all, even when I take the nausea meds.

I am from long island New York.

Hey where in Long Island New York - I am from Wantagh

I'm a week out today, crystal light was too sweet for me, but i was able to get fluids down with G2. the only crystal light i could do was the lemon tea. walk as much as you can it helps with the gas pain. i feel almost back to 100% at a week. i am able to lay down to sleep but i had to spend the first few days upright on the sofa. It gets better everyday. just keep on sippin.
