I joined the losers bench!

Had my sleeve done yesterday at 715 am. By 10 am I was in my hospital room. Doctor said I had a huge hiatal hernia that he had to repair. I truly believe that's where the pain is coming from. I've only had minimal pain (except for the first 3 hours). They actually anticipated I would be in the hospital a few days because of the hernia repair but I went home today. Feeling good and confident.

Thanks! Any other suggestions?

My biggest suggestion is don't weigh for a month! Most of the people I have known have stalled about 1 week in and then dropped significantly about 1 month out! Don't focus on losing, focus on healing! Drink lots of liquids and walk as much as you can! I am 3 weeks out and it has been a breeze. I'm back to working out (just walking right now, but running soon!) and getting plenty of fluids. I feel great and my clothes are fitting just wonderfully! My big loss in my signature is from being banded previously. I had my revision on 12/28. Good luck!

Yay! The next few days will likely be very unpleasant, but you will bounce back quick.

Good luck!
