How long did your surgery take? How long do you need to stay in hospital?

Surgery took 3 hours due to a lot of scare tissue! I will be released today I'm just waiting for my dr to arrove

I just had the endoscopy done the final task and was told i had inflammation of the esophogaus and have to take meds and retake the endoscopy in 8 weeks. I am bummed

So sorry to hear this. Did the medical professionals tell you why?

I had my sleeve surgery on 1/5/16, and it took about 1.5 hours, then home 2 days later, now drinking Protein, broth, juice, meeting goals. Good luck!

I too had my sleeve on 1/5/16. I was home on Thursday. On protein diet and liquids diet for one week then on soft foods the next week. Everything went well. I was nauseous and in pain for one day. The Meds helped a lot. By Thursday I felt much better. Today my fifth day I was out at Aldi's getting organic stuff to make my protein smoothies. I can drink about 64 oz of water in 12 hours and two protein drinks in 10 hours. I try to have broth with my vitamins so it won't upset my stomach. I have not weighted myself yet. Will do so on Sunday. But I know I've lost weight. The Victoria's Secret Pjs I got for Christmas wouldn't fit and now the pants is lose and feels comfy. Scars are healing well. I am not hungry but it could be the protein drinks. My breakfast one almond milk and is filling with protein powder. A little Greek yogurt to change up a little.

Just curious what other's are experiencing for stomach capacity with their newly sleeved stomach; after two weeks I really have no problem knocking back an 11 oz Protein shake, ditto for broth etc.

My biggest problem is remembering to drink water during the day at work, I rarely do though I am trying to drink a couple bottles a day while working. I really have no problem drinking...just remembering and making myself do it.

I didn't have any problem drinking protein drinks or broth. But can only eat a half of cup or less of real food. It has been very restrictive which is good.

Down about 43 pounds in 5 weeks. ????

I do have trouble drinking water because I stay so full for so long after eating and don't feel like drinking up to two hours after eating sometimes.

Nerves are setting in.. I just want to be done and home. Spending tomorrow making Soups to be ready. Freezer is stocked with pops plenty of shakes and yogurt..

Hurry up Tuesday

I'm going January 18th to Florence Hospital in Tijuana!! Tomorrow I start my 7 day all liquid diet!! So nervous yet EXCITED to begin my new life journey ????

I had by band removed back in 2012 I'm wondering how much scar tissue they will have when they start mine and if it is going to cause an issue.

Ok people, I am 8 days from being sleeved. I am starting to get real nervous! I so want this tool to help me lose weight. By the same token, I am nervous about getting surgery! I have has surgeries before so I know there is always a risk but I have been following my doctor's requirements very closely. I have lost 20 pounds since my surgery was scheduled and still have 8 days. I stopped smoking 12 days ago - YAY!!! I think I am doing well but...

I read all sorts of blogs - this one as well as 3-4 others. Everyone says pretty much the same thing - everything goes just fine, they feel OK afterwards and are up walking. I don't know why I am getting a case of the nerves at this point.

There, I have vented a little. Looking forward to this really I am.
