I don't see it as bragging!! I love to hear this because that it isn't always bad. I still need one more thing off my list before I'm approved. So I'm glad to hear this. I hope I'm as lucky as you all.

My husband and I had no issues. I'm 9 weeks post op and ice only once gotten too too full. Nothing bothers my sleeve. Or nothing that I've fed it anyway, which has been all Protein.

Really many of us felt almost nothing except a little tired.

I had a good recovery. No gas problem. Pain from incision site but that healed. 5 months out and 96 off. Glad I did it.

My surgery went smoothly & I felt great! Went in at 6am & came home around 12:30pm, I was an outpatient. Never had any issues with nausea, vomiting or gas.......I was pleasantly surprised!

My surgery went much the same way. My only issue was tht I had a slow heart beat in recovery and spet the first night in cardiac ICU. After that it was a breeze. I had such and easy time drinking fluids I was chugging over 80 oz of Water and my Protein Shakes and actually felt hunger (for me it is a steady ache right at my belly area - I thought it was excess acid and asked to up my dose of Omoprezole but they told me it was hunger. Nice that I got to keep THAT) i accelerated my programs plan and again: NO PROBLEMS. No pain no leaks no dizziness no vomiting no excessive pain no fatigue no nothing. I have lost slower due to moving food stages so quickly (I was told AFTER the fact that my program's lengthy liquid stage is for speedy weight loss in the beginning as much as extra caution) but I have been fine!

I did expel a stitch from one of my incisions. Doc said normal...some people's bodies reject the stitches. It was only on and may not have been tacked right so it was easy to expel. It wasn't from my tummy but from the incision where they ganked my stomach out.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
