Hi everyone; I am sleeved as of 3pm yesterday! Normally I would enter this as a blog, but I'm in hospital still and using my phone so positing in the forum is easier. I will blog more detail later.

I am doing really REALLY well. Not gonna lie, it hurt when I woke up from surgery and I combatted a few waves of nausea but I was able to breathe through it and not heave. The pain was eventually taken care of when they got me dialed in on the right meds. I was up every 2 hrs during the night to use the bathroom. Feeling quite perky this morning & waiting for the Dr. I know I'm here til this afternoon. I am kinda bored actually. But very VERY happy! The staff here is awesome & my husband is an angel & a very good nurse

I know if I keep feeling this frisky I will need to MAKE myself take it easy, because I don't want to over do it and feel bad later.

To my fellow 5/22 sleeves - hope you all are doing well too!

Where did you have your Sleeve done.. I am scheduled next week and so very nervous of what to expect when I wake up.. are they going to control the pain?

I am glad to hear your doing well. I had my band to sleeve revision plus a hiatal hernia repair on May 6th. I was uncomfortable for a few days but no strong pain. I came home and felt great on day 3 just tired. I was a bit depressed because I came home 8 pounds heavier due to water weight. I have since lost that plus about 14 pounds. I have been over doing it which is easy to do and if your like me and can't sit still that is easy to do so be careful and take it easy. I have had a wonderful recovery. I am 17 days out and I am on soft foods. I have tried some moist chicken and ground beef and have had no problems. I just eat a tiny bit and I am full. You will both do great!

Congratulations! You actually sound great! Keep us informed on your recovery & journey! Would love to hear about it!

Congratulations on your sleeve! I'm so happy you are doing so well!

Thanks for the well wishes! @Staci, I am in Castle med ctr on Oahu. Please try not to worry too much, the nurses are here to help you & will manage your pain. It's a very distant memory for me already.

@sherry sounds like u r doing great! I have no doubt all the fluids have added temp weight but that's cool; I won't weigh for a week.

Dr came & said all is well. I did 1 oz water & now working on 1 oz broth. It is relish!

Onward!

Hah. Auto correct. The broth is delish, like delicious, not relish. Sheesh!

So glad your doing well! Great to hear!

Congrats Momo! I hope it continues well for you.
