I'm Aug 22nd! I'm also both excited and very nervous. We're all here for you!

Mine as well! Congrats and best of luck!

We will be surgery twins! [emoji1374][emoji1374][emoji1374] for a swift recovery!


incase this helps anyone....

I had my sleeve done this week on Tuesday 1st Aug.

I got out of hospital late afternoon on Wednesday and travelled by car 4 hours home. Wednesday was hell - I was in a lot of pain and struggling to drink.

Thursday, totally different - no pain killers. Had a sleep late morning for a couple of hours and then did 4 hours office work on the laptop. Drinking was managable

Friday / Today - I got a lift in to work at 10.30am and a lift home again at 4.30pm. I'll start driving again on Monday. Drinking is no problem and no pain killers. I feel pretty much normal.

Mine is scheduled for August 16! I keep going back and forth between being really nervous and really excited! Just can't wait to be done with surgery and recovery and start this new journey! I am trying to get into a workout routine now.

Wow!! I hope mine goes as awesome as yours has, so far! Best of luck for a continued quick recovery! :)

Hi,

just got sleeved on the 2nd. So far so good. Been getting liquids in per schedule 1oz every 15 minutes. I'm alternating premier protein shakes with Protein2O water. It's really good, found out about it on these forums. The coconut pineapple flavor really is yummy. Been walking as much as possible to work the gas out. Felt like the blueberry girl from Willy Wonka yesterday. Felt a tad nauseous today, took antinausea pills and am better now. Walked 2000 steps yesterday, thinking about 2500 today. Have been napping off and on last couple of days. Happy it's done! Looking forward to what's next. Sending happy thoughts to all recent sleevers and lots of encouragement to those waiting. It's going to be an interesting ride!

Hey...Thats the spirit.nothing but positive vibes.

Hi everyone. I just had my gastric sleeve surgery yesterday. I'm home now and I'm having trouble with drinking my water and protein intake too I'm getting full quickly. Has anyone else experienced that after surgery. How long did it last for you? I'm afraid of failing. Please help!!!
