    I had mine on the 14 of this month. It was a piece of cake! Very quick recovery, no pain and totally satisfied so far!

Peace love and sleeve It does get easier. I had my sleeve on December 29. The first two days in the hospital were good. When I got home I was tired and weak. When I would go in the shower I would get tired and out of breath. Just moving would get me out of breath. I would get periods of extreme fatigue. But I'm now at week five and things are extremely better. I still get a little tired but in can breath and for the most part im pain free. Hang in there.

@@wannaBthinsoon You're getting close!!!

Surgery tomorrow @ 7 AM, did bowel prep and clear liquids yesterday and today after 2 weeks of the liquid diet. So excited but so nervous too.

@@peace love and sleeve are you drinking fast?? At first it would take me about an hour to get through 5oz of liquid. I couldn't stand water so I did diet cranberry juice and Popsicles

I think I am drinking too fast. the only thing I've eaten every day is a couple ounces of jello. .I don't even want to try protein

All I've been sipping on Is water. I've had broth but only drank a couple of sips. I tried jello I really didn't like it so I just tasted it and threw it away. I really don't feel like drinking anything but I know that's not good

Peace love and sleeve you should try to drink the protien. If you dont drink and don't take the protien that's not good. My dr prescribed me something to stop the gurgling and stuff. I believe it's the stomach acid that causes that. If I stop taking the medications for more than two days then I get the gurgling and stomach stuff going on
