Sleeved today! Nov 17

I was sleeved today, November 17. So far so good!!! I thought the pain would be much worse than it is. I had my gallbladder out 5 weeks ago, and that was much more painful. I only really have pain getting up and down out of bed or a chair. And even that is minimal.

Right now I'm just very tired which is probably from the anesthesia. I haven't been nauseous at all. I'm just very thirsty right now and I'm only allowed 4 oz of ice chips every 8 hours. I have my leak test tomorrow and I'm hoping for it to be successful.

I hope the rest of my healing time is just as easy.

Yay!!! Congrats. I'm 7 days out myself. Welcome to our world. LOL

Me too!! So far I feel really good! The gas in my shoulder hurts way more than my stomach. Feeling blessed!

Congrats! Glad to hear your recovery is doing good.

Congrats! Glad everything went well! I have my surgery tomorrow morning.

Congrats. I was also sleeved yesterday but i am in pretty serious pain. Still i don't have a single regret.

Great! Don't get nervous if you start to feel like poo over the next few days. You will probably hover on dehydration and the lack of calories will start to get to you a bit, but it seems that many people, myself included, start to feel normal at the three week mark.

Welcome to the loser side!! You are going to feel amazing!!
