Hiii guys!!! I did it! Got sleeved on Tuesday 9/19 it was a pretty short procedure Of want say 1hour and half. I was sent home yesterday afternoon. I do feel a little uncomfortable due to the incisiones another then that, I've been able to talorate my liquid (water,broth, Jello, teas). One other discomfort is the urge to poop and I can't. Other then that I'm doing awesome!

I was sleeved on Monday. Felt great and was out and about. Now today I'm feeling anxious and teary and bloated. Help! Is this normal??
Any suggestions?




I felt the same way. Didn't take much to become teary eyed, but within 2-3 days, I was much better. I just surrounded myself with family and friends and tried to get up and move as much as I could. Good luck to you!

Congrats love! I was lucky because I was able to release a lot of gas the same day of surgery and I was able to walk they same day. I Struggled with the intake of the liquid but, zipping my way through the RN said if you get to 3 cups per 1 I'll let u go home! And I did just that and she saw me fully active sitting and walking the hospital gassing away [emoji4] [emoji5]

I was released on Wednesday and today Friday I was finally able to poop, just try to drink as much liquid as possible slowly and take your stool softener pills and you Protein Shake that had always helped me to poop! And I felt in heaven once I was able to poop!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
