Good luck for me it was OK being at the hospital I stayed 2 days and I was in pain but controlled and when I got home I was in a lot more pain but it gradually went away Now its just discomfort I am 14 days post op but now what hurts is the intake of drinks and foods and severe back pain. I kindve regret getting this done.

So I'm not the only one with horrible stabbing gas pains? I've tried the gas x strips and all is still quiet... I am trying to keep my family out and about on an endless series of errands because I think when this finally blows... It's not gonna be pretty and I have to live with these nice people for the rest of my life. ;)

Thank you so much for the info- I wondered why they weren't working. I did some weeding today and have been busy around the house and I think that has helped. Getting info from this site is wonderful but at the same time, I'm scaring myself by reading threads about leaks, getting things stuck in your seam, etc. It's amazing how much info is out there and how it is so vastly different. When I got a lap band 7 years ago there wasn't much to go on. What a difference with the sleeve. I think I may have scared myself out of sleep.... :(

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
