I am doing great..omg..thought this would be way worse lol..I do gave a headache and some gas pain..but other than that...nothing.. good luck to everyone going in tomorrow

I am home it's 2 days post op. going well. Just bit of a struggle as far as getting the protein in on clear liquids. I am sipping isopure I can't sip too much or I get an uncomfortable feeling in my chest so don't know about 60 grams. Will keep trying though. So glad to read about all that were sleeved and did well. It's going to be so exciting to reap the rewards!

Good for you..my first 2 days were great...then they started my fluids... which bought me an extra night at the hospital.. couldn't keep anything down..so now I am on a steroid to help with swelling in my esophagus and I was able to keep down 5 oz of fluids... and it only took 3 hours to get that in...lol...at this rate I will lose 100 pounds in 2 months... joking!!! Things will get better I am sure..take care :)

I'm sorry to hear that and hope the challenges lessen as time goes on. From what I hear each day can be different so I'm breathing no sigh of relief.

We are in it for the long haul now. I hope I won't miss food too terribly. I psychologically miss it tonight. My body feels some hunger but much of it is in my mind.

I really hope you feel better and are able to increasingly hold fluids down.
