Hi there. I was also sleeved on the 30th. Day 2 and three have been a little rough...... Some nausea, worse pain, and no energy whatsoever . I am hoping tomorrow is better. I also was not able to sleep last night. I did better in the hospital with the pain pump. I know it will get better, just hard right now. Hope everyone is doing well

Came home today..had a problem with nausea yesterday. Feeling much better today! Walking, sipping, napping.

Got my sleeve on Monday morning. I had vey little pain the first night sore throat asked fur meds for nausea before hand. Rested well other that the hospital staff checking vitals every 15-30 minutes. I not complaining welcomed their concerns. I did have a problem with voiding on day two. They drained it somehow, and gave me some meds. That worked shortly after taking it. I two night because on the voiding issue. Released and learned quickly what sip means and not gulp. It hurt like nothing I've every experienced. My mother has been with my through whole experience ( hospital) no I home with her until next week. She's my life saver. Journaling everything I consume. I know she spoils all of us.

Walked outside three times today. Feeling really good. There no stoping me now can't hold me back. My stomach makes this growling sound, not sure why.

I got home yesterday and am feeling pretty good. I had my first day today with no nausea! Yea! Hopefully that has passed.

I got home yesterday and all in all I'm doing ok. I had to have 3 leak checks with barium swallow tests because they were unable to tell if I had a leak or swelling. They have decided it was swelling but to be safe- I have to keep my drain and monitor output until next Friday so that's not awesome. But I'm down 11 lbs since surgery, in minimal pain, without nausea and home with this cute little puppy and all of my sleeve friends. I'm happy! :)

Hey everyone morning of day 5. Seems like we're all experiencing similar side effects which is comforting. Yesterday morning I felt pretty good which rapidly turned into pretty uncomfortable incision soreness later in the day. I think I may have pushed it too far because I was feeling good in the morning. Food is going good. I am eating 1 TBSP of farina in the morning milked down with skim plus as well as 2 TBSP of Greek yogurt milked down. Getting a little bored of that but what can you do. Anyone been on the scale yet??

I had my surgery july 30.

Gas pain comes and goes.

What good on a full liquid diet?? Any suggestions??

On the full liquid diet, I am drinking premier shakes, nectar shakes with crystal vitamins, propel, broth, cream soup watered down with 1% milk, and powerade zero. That part is going pretty well. Using gas x , heating pad , and walking for the gas pain. Good luck. One day at a time is what I'm trying to tell myself.

You will LOVE egg drop soup. The starchy cream soups made me feel bad.

God idea on the egg drop soup! Thanks.
