I was sleeved on 6/11. Pretty miserable since. Today is better. Gas pain much less. I'm getting protein and water in. Not easy. My surgeon's PA tells me that my 13 year old Type 2 diabetes "appears to be resolved." !maybe this won't be so bad.

Looking forward to hearing about your progress - I'm scheduled for 6/23.

Don't worry, it gets much better and quickly! I found mixing 20 oz of water with 2 packets of indiviual serve Crystal Lite or other flavorings and then throwing in a scoop of natural or vanilla protein powder in a water bottle tastes like lemon mirangue pie. This gives you 20 oz water, 20 grams protein and 60 cals.

It really does get better every day. Time drags out so slowly in the early days, but in a few weeks, you will be feeling MUCH better and in a few months you will feel completely "normal".

Good luck I'm scheduled for the 30th

I'm scheduled for the 23 as well. Ready to finish the pre-op and enter the next phase of the journey.

Thanks. I need to hear that.

It will get better trust me! I am post op day 10 and feeling awesome. Back to work and I am a nurse so it is pretty crazy. Up until day 3 I thought I had made the biggest mistake of my life. Gas pains were unbearable!! Go to cvs and buy chewable simethicone- it really made things much better for me and got rid of the discomfort.
