I was sleeved on Wednesday the 23rd and I can't believe I would feel up to going back to work in a week. I took the 3 weeks my Dr. recommended. How were you feeling 3 days out. I am so sore and tired, I can't wait for this soreness to go away.

I also was sleeved on the 21st and actually went in to the office for 3 hours on Thursday. I'm going back full time on Monday as well. I think that getting up and moving will actually feel better than resting so much.

I was also sleeved on Monday. I wanted to go back to work after a week but my surgeon made me promise to take two weeks off. Today is day 6 and while I could probably handle it, I'm grateful for another week (I'm a hair stylist). If for no other reason than just to have the time off for myself.

I was sleeved on Wednesday the 23rd and im going back to work on the 30 (1 week). I actually feel good enough to go back on Monday, but because my post op is on Tuesday I figure I'd just wait till that is over.

I was sleeved on 10/3 and I am going back to work tomorrow. Enjoyed the time off. I had horrible nausea my 2nd week.

I was sleeved on 10/21 im going back to work on 10/31 ive been to the pumpkin patch and all walking and doing things as if nothing happened...I also had a hatial hernia repaired as well

I was sleeved also on the 21st of October and the first week was so bad for me with feeling the urge to throw up and being in pain... But once I took my meds I was fine.... I am also going back to work tomorrow I feel the same way going back to routine will help as well Instead of laying all daylong... What is everyone eating as far as drinks and stuff?

Did you change your diet or meds the 2nd week? I am 5 days out. No nausea....yet.....knock on wood

I had my sleeve Oct 15/13....2 weeks out....feeling great....back to work tomorrow!! Life is great! Down 35 lbs this am!

Congrats to all of you on your WLS!!!

Good to read such positive results and being so upbeat and optimistic to return to work so soon

I'm pre-op start diet 11/1 and surgery 11/15

You're all an inspiration and helps me being pre-op get through these nerves taking over me.

I just made my Appt's required before surgery lab, EKG etc.

I got so nervous as i type I'm trying to overcome a panic attack. I took a Xanax since I suffer from anxiety and logged on here to get my head cleared up and on track again.

I'm feeling scared and questioning myself if can do it, then freak out thinking what if I come out if surgery and have panic/anxiety attacks everyday.

I'm asking myself if these nerves are a sign not to do it.

I'm scared because I'm a diabetic and keep think will my little stomach balance glucose/sugar after surgery

Did you all go through this too??

Had sleeve done on the 21st of October and now a week later I am in urgent care because I am dehydrated wrist feeling ever... I never was dehydrated before I am happy I got it done but at the same time I don't want all this pain .. My c cession was so much better then this hoping I get better ????
