I had a lapband in 2012 that did almost nothing and finally slipped in 2015 where it was revised to a sleeve. I lost a tiny bit then started steadily regaining within a year. It turns out that my sleeve surgeon left my sleeve very large. My final and third surgery will obviously be my last, and I am going to be serious and dedicated.

I had my sleeve redone plus the SADI-S procedure at 166lbs (5’1”) this morning with Dr. Wihelmy at Mexicali Bariatric.

I am in pain but already standing and walking around.

Please feel free to ask me any questions. I intend to become an active forum member to hold myself accountable and make some motivational buddies!

Hello and get well soon, hopefully, this is the last surgery for you! Gosh, you have been through the mill!

I'm praying you had a smooth operation. Mine is next week.

Heal quickly! Welcome!

Prayers for a speedy recovery!

Get well soon! ❤️

Welcome to the forums! I hope you heal well and quickly!

Welcome and prayers for healing quickly!

3 days post-op and I am being discharged tomorrow afternoon!

Drain is out, IV is out, and I am on oral pain meds only. Barely any pain. 2 leak tests clear.

The first 3 nights in the hospital I struggled a lot with discomfort (not pain, just getting comfortable and not being able to sleep) but I have trouble sleeping in general.

I was walking just a few hours after my surgery.

Tomorrow, I am off to recuperate in a nice hotel for a week before flying across the country (since I'm alone, I thought this would be a good plan).

This surgery was more serious and thus more difficult than my previous 2, but overall, everything has gone really well and I have no complaints.

Glad to hear your surgery went well and that you are off to recuperate in a nice hotel. Keep up the great walking and sipping, remember to get as much protein in you as you can, and keep us posted on your progress. You are on your way!! ((HUGS))
