It just keeps getting more real with each passing day. Just this one last week of preop diet and then surgery day-4/27. I'm a little worried about just what it is going to feel like for me since the last surgery I had was when I was 6 yrs old- tonsillectomy! Best wishes to all those before me and best of luck to those who have theirs on the same day and those after!!!

Anybody out there had the sleeve and gone home the same day? Mine is with Nicholson Clinic in Dallas and it's a day surgery. Would love to hear experiences of those who had the surgery and went home same day...

Had my surgery on the 27th. All went well but the pain is terrible.

HOpe your pain gets better,

I've got some pain and gas, just taking pain meds and anticipating it will be better tomorrow and each passing day. They did a local anesthesia around my incision sites and it is suppose to last 2-3 days, so I'm wondering if by that time the pain is better= I sure hope so! So, how was YOUR experience?

I had the worst nausea ever. I've probably thrown up 40-50 times. Had to stay an extra night in the hospital, b/c I couldn't keep anything down!

I am so shocked that your surgery was done as an outpatient. OMG, you must be in some kind of pain.

Sleeved on the 27th! Doctor said everything went great! I woke up with a lot of pain-it was like the worst cramps and heart burn ever! I stayed 1 night and most of the second day. I didn't have any nausea but i did have heart burn for like 24 hours. I am burpy and gurgley every time i drink anything, but it is just weird not painful. All in all i am feeling tired and sore, but am doing well. Good luck to everyone else!

--oh, no! That was a fear I had. So sorry you went through that nausea and vomiting. Hopefully that is all past you now.

Its easing, I can only keep water or ice down. And of course the pain medication is liquid and tastes horrible... I'm really hoping this eases soom b/c I'm getting 0 nutrition! But they said as long as I stay hydrated I should be okay. I just hope I go back go normal fast, this is just horrible!!

1. I had my surgery at 9:30 on 4/22/2015. It was a breeze. I was a little nervous about the IV (I have invisible veins), but they did a great job. The Anesthetist was a dreamboat and at 65, I could get by with lots of flirting. I spent the night at the hospital and went home about 11:00 on the 23rd. It was no problem. I felt fine. A little sore, but I was on pain meds. Once home and in bed I slept a lot. Trick was, I had a friend stay with me the first week. She woke me up every 15 minutes to sip my one ounce of liquid. Get a digital egg timer. Mine clips onto my clothes. Get off the pain meds as soon as possible. Milk of Mag is the worst thing I have had in my life. YUCK. Liquid Tylenol made me sick.

Spiritfilled how did the appointment go? Lori H how are you doing?

Much better...Can't find a protein powder that I like though... they dont seem to stay down...other than that I've lost 30 lbs but been in a stall for the last week

Glad to hear you're doing better. I've been in a bit of a stall but I am feeling and seeing a difference in my face, neck and boobs, where I usually notice first, so hopefully I'm coming out of it.

I have read on ThinnerTimes.com forum some people going home same day, and some going back to work 5 days later. My doctor said 2 days, but I read many have been out patient. So, you're not alone. Good Luck.
