Getting sleeved 8/29 - so excited!

[Arielle 18]

I found out my surgery is 8/29. I feel like I'd won the lottery when I got the news!

Any advice for someone who is ten days out?

anyone else scheduled for the end of this month?

Congrats on your date! I'm 2 days post op right now. Biggest thing for me is walking and taking pain meds on time. Don't ever be afraid to ask questions, I'd rather have an answer than not know. Having a pillow to hold over stitches is so helpful for support (been using my pillow pet personally). You'll do great!

I'm 4 days post op. So excited for you. I'm doing better than i thought. Pain is manageable, eating small amounts of liquids, sipping on Water though I know it's still not enough.

Still have some gas pain so I'm walking around the house inside and out.

Best of luck to you! Ask lots of questions and don't be afraid if something feels off. It may be totally normal, so ask!!!

keep uodating!

I'm getting sleeved on the 29th also!!! I'm on my first day of my pre-op diet and it's been hard today but I'm keeping myself focused on what's ahead.

I've been doing a bit of research on this topic since I couldn't get an answer beyond "don't weigh yourself every day" from the nurse at my surgeon's practice. I think it has to do with Fluid intake post-surgery.

Ugh. And I am terrible with that. [emoji58]
