I was sleeved Monday at about 11:39. Very little nausea. Feel like I've done a bazillion crunches And every time I sip my Water I get a huge air bubble. I walk it off and then I'm fine until my next little sip.

Welcome to the losing side and congrats on your new sleeve! =). The gas pain does subside but it really got me that first week too (which was just last week!).

Welcome to the sleeve side! As for drinks take it slow and sip sip sip. Maybe if you sip it in to your mouth and let it trickle down your throat, thats what I did the first few days. Congratulations

I was sleeved the same day but at 2PM. I am having air bubble issues when drinking too. Just finished walking around and the gas is moving. How is you pain level in general?

I was sleeved Monday at 11:30 too!! I'm having a hard time with Water, but have been able to get broth and Jello down with no problem. My stomach is constantly growling like I'm hungry. Does anyone else have this problem? I really want a soft Soup but I don't want to get sick either. .

Jello works for me so far. Haven't had broth yet but yes my stomach is making noise too. Especially after i drink Water.

My pain level is okay. The worst part is when I get up I have to maneuver myself so my incisions don't pulls. That and the fact the it feels like I have done a bazillion crunches is all the trouble I am having.

I am 25 days out and I had the stomach growling too. It is just your body getting adjusted. Also, what I thought was a sip of Water and what my new pouch thought was a sip were different! Take smaller sips. In a few days that part will get better and you will be able to take bigger and bigger drinks. I loved potato soup and cream of chicken Soups. Didn't have a problem with either- they made me feel like I had had something!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
