Yay! A february group I can join!!

Welcome!

So I'm 2.5 weeks post op and traveling for the first time today. Business trip, pretty easy one, but still not ideal. I've been really weak and easily exhausted for the past week. I'm anxious about getting through the airports. But I figured I'll just take it slow and give myself plenty of time. I'll be testing out restaurant food for the first time as well. I'm on purees, but have tested a few soft foods (w my Dr.'s blessing), and I seem to have a stomach of steel, vitamins and meds are the only thing that upsets it.

I'm looking at this as a test for next week. I'm on a week long business trip, with my boss morning to night. It is a busy week that includes seeing a lot of customers and associates, dinner, drinks etc.. Really nervous about my energy level

In some good news, looks like I broke my week long stall!

Two weeks post-RNY as of tomorrow (March 1). Down 20 pounds since surgery day. Halfway through the two-week puree diet, and I hate it; having trouble getting in enough liquid and as many meals as they want me to get in, because if I eat/drink as much as they want me to, I feel (uncomfortably but not painfully) stuffed all the time, though that's gradually improving.

Mostly pain-free except random sharp pains from the scar tissue forming under my stapler incision, which my cousin (who had the same surgery several years ago) said happened off and on for her for nearly a year. Going to try driving tomorrow because I want to get out to see a movie this weekend; only concerns are getting in/out of the car and whether the seatbelt will cause any pain on my incisions.

Hello! Im post op day 9. Got sleeved on 2/20 and the first 4 days I thought I had made a mistake with surgery. Tolerating more liquids now and feeling a bit better overall.

Welcome to the sleeved life! I think we all regret it at first with the pain we endure but I’m almost three weeks out and it definitely gets better!

Hi everyone,

I was sleeved 2/8/2018 & today marks 3 weeks post op! Overall i have been feeling pretty good. My only struggle is having a 2 & 3 year old (Who wants me to pick them up) AND a husband who is on the Keto Diet (all meats) lol...

Hi all, I got sleeved 2/26, anyone experience right midsection pain around the incision, still dealing with pain and discomfort around this area. Anyhow, 6 days post op and I also haven’t pooped in 5 days, any advice is appreciated.

Stool softness do help.... also my Dct said things will work a lot slower than your used to...if stool softness don’t work you can use Miralax..

I was sleeved 2/12 and still experiencing midsection pain. It’s pretty sharp and constant. Happens when I’m stretching, bending and even when I’m just been sitting too long. Really annoying and frustrating. I’m going to see my Dr. this coming week. My incision are fine but that damn pain is keeping me down.
