Surgery Date: May 30, Any Others?

Hi everyone,

I'm getting my gastric sleeve on May 30 at Memorial Hermann Sugar Land Hospital. I'd love to have some surgery buddies... any out there? (I'm so excited but nervous as well! More excited than nervous though!) Ready to change my life!!!!

I had my surgery May 30th. Home the next day. On Day 4 today and the pain is finally getting better. I was able to walk the dog and do a little housework. I still feel bloated so I haven't weighed myself yet. I am able to get my Protein and Water in but sometimes I feel hungry. I'm tired and a little worried about going back to work on Wed. Luckily, I work from home. How are all you doing?

I would say that last few days I’m moving a lot better. I had my surgery last Monday and tonight I’m going to keep my plans for a photo session. My son is helping me with gear! I too feel hungry which surprised me. I feel am getting my protein shakes in but it takes about an hour or more to consume one. I have been having a cup of broth that I sip over 30 minutes. I have yet to get 32 oz of water in during the day. I am finding it hard to know when to take supplements. It seems like an all day process of getting things in so I hope I’m doing it right.
