Today's my surgery day!!

Today's the day! After 7 months of prep I feel very ready. I've lost 40 pounds during the pre op period and can't wait to lose more! I'm anxious, nervous, and excited. I will say the 2 day clear liquids my doctor had me do has been brutal, but I felt ready after doing 2 weeks of full liquids. Anyone else getting sleeved today???

I'm getting sleeved today at 1:15 in Norman, OK. I'm also very nervous and ready to get it done. Please post when you can and let me know how you are doing!

Got sleeved yesterday at 115 :) waking up from anesthesia was rough... ended up vomiting. Otherwise I've been walking a ton and not much discomfort from the gas. The incision where they took the stomach out is super sore and weepy. Been off the I.V. Pain meds since last night around 6 pm. Also no problems really with keeping liquids down, haven't had to take nausea meds since right after surgery. Just waiting on my Dr to make rounds so I can go home. [emoji173][emoji173]

Ended up staying a bit longer at the hospital because of pain but I'm home now. Having a rough time getting in and out of bed or getting comfortable. Gas has been kind of a pain but all manageable. I'm really surprised at how normal I mostly feel. Other than the gas pain and incision pain I feel like myself. Was able to get down part of a protein shake and a light and fit yogurt smoothie as well as most of my water. Just got to remember to take small sips lol otherwise it doesn't feel great.

Congrats! I had a really hard time getting in and out of bed. It gets a little easier everyday.
I did too much bending a week out, and then was in pain for a couple days so take it easy on yourself!
