Anyone feel that the days following surgery seam just to easy? I had surgery on the 5 th and I'm still waiting for the hammer to drop.. No nausea, no problem drinking . Walking well. I have a very minor feeling of acid in my stomach but that it. Just waiting for the bad days.

I feel the same way, really lucky. I had no problems. The weight is a bit slow coming off though. That's my only complaint.....

I was the same way!! The hammer never dropped! I was sleeved on the July 18th and my worse complaint is extreme fatigue a few times a week! Count your blessings and enjoy!

definitely count your blessings. i got the other side. no complications mind you, but pain, fatigue, constipation. took a couple of weeks to work it out.

Enjoy it and I hope it lasts for you.

Same here - I was sleeved on the 5th of August - feeling no pain, no nausea - a little gassy and some heartburn if I drink too fast. A little tired and easily worn out when by the end of the day. I've been getting two protein shakes down a day. The weight has been dropping off - anywhere from 2-3 lbs per day!! It's ridiculous!

I was sleeved 5/9 and the hammer never dropped! Consider yourself lucky

Sometimes people just get lucky. I am happy that recovery is going so well for you.

Sometimes in preparation for the worst we brace for a storm. When the storm passes by and doesn't whip our butts we are left with the braces.

Leave them up.

Save them for the stalls and lifelong maintenance.

That's awesome! The first 5 days were the worst for me so hopefully you're in the clear!

I had no complications after my surgery.......

I was lucky as well. Sleeves on 5/29 and I didn't have any issues.

No issues for me either.

I was sleeved on April 18th & other than a nearly full body rash a few days after surgery I didn't have any complications, haven't had any bad reactions to foods, nausea, vomiting, etc...knock on wood.

too easy????

i've had many operations - so the WLS itself, didn't concern/scare me

i wasn't too concerned about eating and drinking properly post op

things did go well with all (no sickness, vomitting, gas et al)

my concern from the beginning was always.........

"how the heck am I gonna be successful and not only lose the weight, but keep the weight off forever and a day

For me, once i reached goal 10 months ago - thats when the hard work starts...................

and my new wonderful life continues!!!!!

gotta keep following all those "sleeve rules" (Water, eating, portions et al)for the rest of my life - so i can keep my "girlish" figure!!!!!

don't look for trouble!!!! :ph34r:

glad things are going so well for you

Sleeved on 5/15/13 and no problems. No nausea, no vomiting, no complications. I was tired the first few weeks (lots of naps), but now I have energy to burn!
