February Sleevers

[Tstorm1070 192]

I was sleeved on Monday the 25th! I came out of surgery by 10am and I was walking by 3pm! I am home now and I am having a lot more gas pain! The gas just rumbles around my chest an abdomen but I don't see a BM coming anytime soon' date=' I'm just trying to walk it out! I've read that the first 5-7 days are the hardest so I'm just trying to push through! Stay strong and focused! Just think about 2-3 months down the road!!

Hope all is going well for y'all!![/quote']

That was the hardest thing for me too. I took stool softner and benefiber (beware ot becomes explosive) but man it was a relief! There is light at the end of the tunnel!

I have my surgery today at 1pm cst. I'm pretty excited to start this new chapter in my life.... The one that I loose the weight and am able to keep it off. It's a real life visa commercial:

Flight to out of state Dr-$ $ $

Hotel and rental car for a week-$ $ $ $

Self pay wls-$$$$$$$$$$

Beating the weight loss game once and for all-----PRICELESS!!

Good luck to all who are getting sleeved today too!

Had my sleeve yesterday !!!!! Had a rough night last night, didn't sleep very well & was crazy nauseous & threw up this morning. Got some new meds & pumped full of fluids & feel 70% better now. Walking around, waiting on my leak test so I can have some Clear Liquids. Hopefully smooth sailing from here on in congrats to all the other 27th sleevers & prayers for today's group!!
