Hi. I was sleeved yesterday and I am now home resting. I had a bit of a time waking up from anesthesia. No vomiting, but I had nausea. How are other new sleevers doing? I can't believe it!!

Not too bad for me - I'm only 3 days in (surgery 9/15 in am) though. So I'm still struggling with liquids. I am only down.1 pound so that's discouraging.

Hang in there!

I'm in the exact same place - warm liquids are easier. Got maybe an ounce of Protein shake in. Good luck!!!

Surgery on Thurs (9/15) went well, although I had a terrible time with nausea and dizziness. I have 4 anti-nausea meds and a scope patch, and they still had to put something in my IV once I got up to the room. Friday I started walking and thought I was doing OK. A little discomfort, maybe some hardness in my abdomen, but I thought this was just from surgery. Then my blood pressure went to 180/85! Nurse had me take a pain pill and my bp started dropping. Who knew I was in pain and didn't recognize it! Anyhow I got my walking in and have had no trouble drinking my liquids. I was in the hospital from Thursday morning until Saturday afternoon, and I'm glad I could stay that long. Now I just have to rest, walk, and sip. Seems easy after coming through surgery!

Congrats and yes the hard part is over we should be recovering with 0 to little pain and on to our goal .I still have trouble with gas bubble pain but nothing I can't handle and walk out . But all and all its been better than I thought..God Bless you through your journey. ????

Congrats!!!

Hi. I was sleeved on the 6th. Recovery was way more intense than I anticipated. I won't lie. I have regrets everyday and feel depressed. I hope that changes.

Almost 2 weeks out. Still sore. Still on liquid diet.

Only lost 5 lbs. Disappoiunted.

Good luck to you on your journey.

I think some people's bodies go into shock. Weight loss doesn't happen because they go into starvation mode. Stay the course, I'm sure it will come!!

Got sleeved on Sept 6. Almost at 2 week point. Still sore. Sick of post op liquid diet. Only lost 6 lbs. Having a hard time. Feeing depressed and having regrets.

Sorry didn't mean to post twice! New at this.

Thanks, and believe me, I am starving, which is probably why I am not losing weight. I hate every single food on my list right now. Right now I just hate everything- I hate feeling sore, I hate the time I have taken away from my young son because I have been recovering. When I think about how I let a surgeon take 85% of my stomach out, I want to throw up. It seems so barbaric. I wish I had tried harder to lose this weight on my own or love myself no matter what what size. I wish I could rewind time and cancel my surgery. Plus my mom was diagnosed with ovarian cancer recently and I just couldn't have done this at a worse time.

I'm really struggling.

I'm sorry. My mom has breast cancer, it was part of the reason I got so overweight. It sucks.

I loved myself at my size, but knew it was bad for my health - tired of not being able to park on the 4th and 5th floor of the parking deck and having to worry about getting back up the stairs, tired of the plantar fasciitis pain in my feet.

I'm sure it gets easier. ❤

I'm sorry to hear you are having such a rotten time I'm curious to know what sort of preparation you had before surgery? I hope things improve for you soon

Hey- I was sleeved in the 13th and other than being tired and sore, im a-okay!! I was very happy to have a premier shake on day 5. It felt like a meal! I can't wait to be healed. I def need a week of rest and couple weeks of taking it easy. But in good!

Hi.. I had mine yesterday too. Arrival to home in 20hrs. All going very well. All liquids stayed down. No sickness and pain ok. I'm planning for the pain over the next few days as the body adjusts from the surgery. But the various drugs will help with that

My liquids are lined up for variety.....

Milk ( some hot as latte)

Water

Lemon tea

Jasmine tea

Milk shakes

Soup

Bovril

All in all we have done a great thing. I Continue to be excited about the future.
