Hey everyone just trying to get all the September Sleevers together! I have my surgery September 30th. So when I wake up on the first of a new month I'll be a new person in the making let's all support and help one another!!

I'm allowed to go gas strip too. I haven't tried them yet though.

OMG you guys I know I am not quite at that point yet but this morning I felt so weak and so famished I scrambled an egg added a pinch of cheese and had about 3 or 4 bites.... it felt good to have texture but now I am beating myself up because I am only on pureed foods now. I wasn't supposed to eat this till friday. Will I be OK if I don't do this again? I haven't posted since I was sleeved but had my post op on the 23rd which was exactly 6 days and had lost only 10 pounds (I will take that) wish it would have been more but I have been doing great up until today. Hope you all are doing great!

The post op eating levels vary so much that some are eating eggs 2 or 3 days after surgery. As long as you didn't gorge yourself and you don't do it again, I bet you'll be fine. Of course, I'm a secretary not a surgeon.

I was sleeved on Tuesday. I came home yesterday and am feeling pretty good. Water made me nauseous at first but right now I'm sipping decaf tea. Warm liquids feel better to me than cold ones. For Braylor, don't be discouraged at losing just 10 lbs. They pump you so full of fluids while in the hospital that my fingers looked like sausages! I'm sure it takes a while for all the liquids to find their way out of your body. I, too, feel better each day. Finally starting to lose some of the gas. Didn't feel any til yesterday but my stomach was rumbling all night!! I'm sure I'll be much more comfortable without all that added pressure on my tummy. I had a hernia that had to be repaired, as well, so I'm guessing some of my soreness is as a result of that. Just going to keep on moving and pretty soon this phase will be a distant memory.

Best of luck to all of you!!!

You sound like you are telling my story. I do feel a lot better this morning. I am trying to get most of my meds in. I still have stomach pains but it is better today than yesterday. I am drinking my first protein drink, not too bad, just drinking 2oz at a time out if 11oz total per container. I hope you and all the others sleevers this week get to feeling good soon and find you are getting slim and healthy. Oh yeah and my pouch is growling up a storm!

Wow, it seems you all are having similar effects. I had my pre ops yesterday surgery on Tuesday. A little nervous which I expect but DEFINITELY TAKING NOTES

Got sleeved by Dr. David Kim yesterday! It went so week I went home late that same evening. I have some left side pain from the incision where they removed the stomach. Other than that my throat is really sore from the tube. Drinking 1oz of fluids every 15 mins and walking all the time! Walking makes such a huge difference! Walk walk walk!

Going home today!!! ????

I've officially been released from the hosoital! I fly back home tomorrow. I'm feeling all right. My belly is a little gurgly buy I'm doing awesome with my fluids. The hardest part for me is figuring out how to get up especially if I'm laying down!

I'm on the 29th! Anyone else scheduled for then?

I'm the 29th also!!!

I'm the 29th too

I'm the 29th too

Awesome!! Are you as nervous as I am? I didn't sleep at all last night....
