Revision done 3/12/2014

Okay post 2 days revision I weigh in at 246 I will keep u posted on my journey. My throat is very sore and I was only able to consume about 2 ounce of liquids today it feels sort of strange when it hit my stomach it's cramps a little and it stops. Will this get better? And was anyone sent home with a plastic bag that is draining fluid time one week post surgery?

I personally didn't have a drain, but it is very common to have one after surgery. Best of luck!

. Hello kb88 today I am 2 weeks post surgery and I am 10 pounds down feeling better the bag was taken out on the March 18 and the removing of the bag hurt really bad. I have to remember to chew my food very fine. I was surprise that my stomach only can hold 3oz of egg white. This week I will head to the gym but I realize that I have to pace myself. I have one problem and that is consuming 64 oz of Water I am not even at 16 yet is that bad?

What did you have revision from? I wish you well, I am have revision also in april...

Trust me going from the band to the sleeve was the best thing I ever did, so far I have not had any complication at all from the surgery just a sore throat. I am 12 days post op. Just relax and follow the instruction of your doctor. I must say drinking 64 oz of liquid will be hard I still have problems with that getting down 8-16 oz. I am down 10 pounds and the doctor took me off my blood pressure medication (GREAT). Stay focus and u will be fine. Keep me posted on your journey in April did they give you the exact date yet? Best of luck and u will do well.
