Sept 11 my weight loss journey began

My name is Kate I'm 34 mother of 2, married. Started at 255.5 lbs at 5'4

Had gastric sleeve done. Can't believe I did it.

How long did it take the pain and bloating to subside. Thurs and Friday were really bad today better.

Welcome and congrats on being on what I call "the other side"! I hope to join you in November. You'll find lots of good info here and lots of friendly folks to provide advice...

I had pain for about 5 days, but I had aching and soreness for a good 10-11 days. The bloating subsided a little each day. I couldn't really give you a time frame on that. But I will be three weeks post op on Monday and I am feeling really well. The first 10'days were rough for me. Hope you get well very quickly!

Hi!

Same for me...took a bit for the gas to go away and the bloating. It will get better for you as each day passes.

Good luck and happy recovery!
