1 Week Post Gastric Sleeve Revision

[krazzierebel 17]

Hello Everyone!! Today makes a week since I had my Revision surgery from lap band to VSG! When I started my weight loss surgery I weighed 250 lbs. The day of my revision I weighed 208.6 lbs. Today one week after surgery I weigh 199.0 lbs!! That means I lost 9.6 lbs on the first week and made it to Onederland!!!! Yay!! I go to see the surgeon Tomorrow and really hope he could take out this drain. I feel so restricted with it!! Anyway, hope everyone has a great week! Stay safe & be healthy

Congratulations on your revision AND making it to Onederland! I was fortunate enough not to require a drain, but I hear people feel a world of difference once it is out.

Don't get worried if your weight loss slows as the first week can be a week of losing all the fluids they pumped in you during your procedure. Soon, you will get to the phase where you are burning fat, but remember it will also burn muscle, so be sure to get as close as you can to your Protein requirements.

Good luck and again, CONGRATS!

Congrats on your revision......I was very fortunate not to have a drain. Healing will take some time but in the process, you will be dropping a lot of weight! Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
