I have been super excited about getting my sleeve. But seems like all I've seen today is people with nonstop nausea and throwing up foam?? In complete misery. I am research a lot and know that this is a given, I mean 85% of the stomach is coming out. Just non I'm getting really spooked and rethinking this

The complication rate is actually quite low. I had zero complications and reached my gw within 6 months of surgery. Most people are fine, althogh it's normal to be worried before major surgery!

I'm turning 63 next week and was sleeved 5 1/2 months ago. I've never thrown up once, not even nauseous. I'd say it's been surprisingly easy once you pass the three week mark. I treated the whole thing that it was my job to get Protein and fluids in, follow the plan. Stop intake when I felt full and ate very slowly.

I also did my research, selected a good surgeon and a center of excellence hospital.

I have no complications and no regrets
