FEBRUARY SLEEVERS 2013....how you doing after you've been Sleeved

[Punkin 21]

I just came home today too. Surgery was on Tue. I have had no nausea or vomiting. My discomfort is probably a 3. My stomach feels like it is cramping from time to time but I'm having no real problem with my Water or shake as long as I take little sips. The gas pain was a real.... pain! I walked and walked in the hospital with no real relief. Not until a rough ride home through Maine potholes did I have a .... umm... release.

Yes, I agree that the gas was the worst part. I am finally letting loose in that department. LOL! Thank goodness. I am feeling a little melancholy. Anyone else?

So I will be at my 1 week post-op appointment in an hour. Curious to see how much I have lost. I am excited to get the stitches out.

Glad to hear so many of you are doing great. I'm on the countdown' date=' scheduled for 2/21. Getting nervous, excited, scared, and kinda have this disbelief feeling that I'm really doing this.[/quote']

Feeling the exact same way as you are! I'm scheduled for 2/26!

How swollen are your bellies? My family says mines much smaller but I feel more of a pooch than before surgery... Still and I'm 7 days out... Is it just me?

I was pretty swollen until day 8. Work up today. Day nine and still little but nothing like I was.

A nurse told me that its best to drink everything at room temp or warmer until u r 10 days out bcz cold can cause the stomach to cramp. I hv 3 days till surgery..18tg..can't wait

I will try this. Stomach cramping/ spasms are not my thing..

I made it to the loosers bench 2/14/13!!!!! Yee haw and I have lost 9# in less than 24 hrs so plus pre op I lost 16# for a total of 25#. Up and walking every couple hours for 10-15 min at a time. I'm feeling pretty good.

4 days post op! Finally came home from the hospital yay! First day home. Feeling pretty good though. Never though getting up and walking and drinking four ounces would exhaust me. Lots of naps!
