Well friends, I was sleeved yesterday. I also had a hiatel hernia repaired. The hernia surgery site is more tender than the sleeve sites. I don't have too much pain except, like most have said, the gas pains are painful as heck. Took the gas X strips but for me, they don't help much.walking doesn't seem to be ring much relief yet either, but other than the gas pain, the surgery went great! i thought the pain would be a lot worse than it really is. Surgeon says I should be able to go home tomorrow.

Thanks to everyone for sharing their experiences with us. It helped me tremendously.

Best of luck and brightest blessings to all December sleepers.

<p>Good luck all Dec. sleevers. I was sleeved on 12/4 and I'm down 13.5 pounds. Today is my 2 week weigh in, I've been stalled at this exact weight for 5 whole days, and I'm hoping to see the scale move soon!</p>

Caligirl3 you are not alone!

Sleeved 12/3 and after a 13 lb loss been stalled for 6 long days! Ugh! So frustrating. It is too soon!!!!

Had to call surgeon tonight. Have some left side pain and it hurt to put my arm down by my side. He thinks it is muscle skeletal pain and to call him back if I get a fever over 100, chills or heart palpitations. Ugh can't wait to go to sleep.< /p>

I may have been unusual, but I have had no nausea. I know I was given IV's the night before with antibiotic and anti-nausea meds. I also had a drain and the "yucky" stuff left inside was draining out. So far, so good.

Hi all! I'm new on here and was sleeved on 12/09. My weight the day of surgery was 224 and I'm now down to 214 (I'm about 5'4). Still experiencing the left sided pain, which my surgeon said was normal since that's the side they pull your stomach out of. I can't wait until next week when I can start experimenting with soft foods. Getting enough Protein in a day is still a challenge, but it's getting easier everyday.

Good luck to everyone getting sleeved tomorrow :-)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?

      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
