Well I'm sitting in my hospital room writing this with the grogginess of the pain meds but the biggest smile ever! I'm so happy my new journey has began ! Pain and nausea coming out of surgery was HELL! But I burped about 10 times and then continually punched my pain med button! Now that I'm controlling my pain its not so bad and I'm so excited for the rest of my life!!

Hey girl hey!!! I just got sleeved also and I am TOO excited! Sorry to hear about ur pain tho, I haven't had much at all, I guess because they put me directly on the pain meds. But hang in girly, and just remember that the journey of a thousand miles starts with a single foot step. And u will be successful, even if that foot step is gassy and painful! Lol

After the first 4 to 6 weeks girls you will be so happy you will not be able to stand it! The energy level goes up and the weight goes down and you realize you have a better relationship with people then food! Food the buddy is now food the glad to see you but my world no longer revolves around you! It is my life and I am taking it back to live it to the fullest!

Hey luv, are you feeling any better?

Well ladies its day 4 after surgery! Things have finally started to work out! Today has been the best day so far! I actually woke up with an appetite! Had a small protein shake and drank about 3/4 cup and kept it down with NO NAUSEA! Yesterday I threw up 4 times! Not fun with a newly stapled stomach and incisions! I had to call the doctors office to have them prescribe some anti nausea meds and switch me from the liquid pain meds to a smaller pill! This I think made a huge difference! For anyone who is about to go through this please be prepared for the few rough days after being discharged. I don't want to try and sugar coat any of this because you need to be mentally prepared for the worst! Ok enough rambling!

Yay you have a petite tummy! I can't wait to get mine

How did the small pill go down? I'm not a fan of liquid meds.

I use a pill cutter and cut them in halves or quarters depending on the size and then swallow each piece at least two minutes apart.
