I was just sleeved on Monday, January 4th here in the sunflower state. I am still in the hospital and in severe pain! Please let me know when you're supposed to start feeling better! ????????

I started to feel much better on day 5. I was still tired by the pain was basically gone. I think the pain was worse the first 2.5 days. After day 5 I could lay on my side and not be in pain (sometimes just felt like I did a lot of sit ups.) You'll be surprised how quickly you'll start feeling like your old self. Remember, sleep and rest when your body tells you to. Drink, drink, drink.

Good luck

Marcia

I'm in Kansas, got sleeved 12/15. The first week was not the most fun but it gets better! Like Marcia said, just rest whenever you need too, focus on drinking and the getting better will happen.

Kansas here. Sleeved Feb. 15th. I used the narcotic button pretty much that first day/night and didn't hurt nearly so much the next day, though it felt like I'd been doing crunches forever. It gets better.

I had my sleeve surgery on 9/28. It gets SO much better. Be patient and give yourself time. I'm still not 100% healed. It's a big learning curve, but I think if you embrace it and enjoy it, you will love it! I had my surgery at Menorah in Overland Park

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
