Good luck. It's not bad at all. I've lost 45 lbs since my sleeve July 18. About 1 lb a day. And I can't exercise a lot right now cause I need to drop some more weight. Don't need a fracture. Get rid of the butterfly's in you tummy cause it's gonna be the best thing you've ever done for your self. Good luck! Dabberdoo (Debra)

The anesthesia isnt bad. They put a liquid in your Iv and.... hello 4 hrs later :) in previous surgerys I could smell and tast the anesthesia. But not this time :)

The whole experience so far has been great not much gas pain, walkings petty easy, ive just started drinking apple juice and its going good as long as I take small sips lol to big of one and it feels like my chest will explode :( have to say though that leak test was horable its tastes awful, and you have to take a couple big swallows... I stated to dry heave. Not a fun experience

Congrats Megan!! We have the same SleeveDay! I am 2 days out just like you. I came home from the hospital last night. My biggest challenges have been the gas pains I have been having. I walk and walk and walk, I put pressure on my belly with a pillow, I take deep breathes but nothing seems to want to make the gas move. Good luck with your recovery!!!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
