Anyone else sleeved this week? Check in here!

How was your surgery and how's recovery going?

Surgery went well and recovery has been pretty smooth. I need to work on walking a bit more but have been following doctors orders and getting my Protein in. Looking forward to being able to eat again but have no intention of cheating so it's just Greek yogurt, Protein Drink, cream Soups, sf pudding & Popsicles for now. Noticing my stomachs a bit rumbly/gurgly after I eat and have been burping a bit. My incisions stil hurt so still taking pain meds but hoping to be off it soon. If anyone has any tips for recovering quickly and getting through the full liquid phase please share with us newbies. Thanks!

I was sleeved on 10/22. The worst part so far is trying to get up and go! My right side feels like its been kicked or I did a million sit-ups. But I'm still able to walk a mile a day if I hold my belly. I know it must look funny but it keeps the pain at bay. I'm certain it's only temporary. I can't wait until I'm at 100% again. Sitting on the couch, watching the boobtube is so boring!

I was sleeved on the 23rd of this week and am in no pain and sometimes even feeling hunger pains tho. Idk if that's normal or what. I'm having no issues getting my fluids down and am eating cream soups etc. I sometimes think did I really even have surgery or did he just make marks on my belly lol
