Any March 2018 Sleevers?

I just got my surgery date for March 5. I am excited and nervous at the same time but I'm trying to hold it all together. :)

I'm having mine today still confused on which surgery sleeve or RNY... my papers say sleeve pre-op says RNY
I'll have that corrected in about 30 minutes.

I am 6 days post op and feel great for the most part.... I find that in the morning when I get up I don't have any swelling or bloated feeling, but within a couple of hours, I am so bloated. Anyone else experiencing this?

I haven't noticed an appreciable change during the day.

Isn't it amazing how good you feel when you first wake up??

Ugh...I've got the tug and pull pain on the spot where they brought my stomach through. 12 days post op, and it hurts today. I am at work and can't get comfy. Ugh.

It is definitely amazing!

3rd day post op, I’m waiting for that wake up feeling amazing thing. :(

It'll come soon :-)

This is TMI for sure...but did anyone else have diarrhea on the second and third day post op?
Everything I’ve read says constipation is a problem after surgery but I’m finding that to be quite the opposite for me. Tell me I’m not alone.

I did and 2 weeks post op still do. I’m just so happy things are moving that I don’t care.

Earlier on I was only consuming liquids and also I think some of the medications I take have come into play as well.

Had the sleeve done... made out out of recovery... if out wasn't for the gas pains I'd feel fine...

Congratulations! Make sure you are walking plenty.... that’ll help a lot with the gas.

I'm 3 weeks post op and I still haven't had a solid BM. But I'm not eating many solid things, nor am I eating a large amount. It's often straight liquid. [emoji21]
