One week after being sleeved.
Hi my name is Erica, I've always been on the big bone or Heavy side so this past few months I started looking into the gastric sleeve process and I started to educate myself about the pros and con's of the surgery. when I went in to see my doctor he was so warn and understanding i then felt really comfortable going on through with the surgery. so I had to do some pre surgery tests before i could set a surgery date. That took about a month and I had my date set after the date was set i had to wait 2 weeks to allow time for my pre op liquid diet. So, I've had my surgery and all I can say is it is the hardest thing I've ever done in my life! the first two to three days after surgery were the worst! but, its been almost a week now and I'm feeling better. I still can't eat real food yet I'm on a all liquid diet but the pain has let off some. I have five small incision's on the upper on my stomach. I have been taking pro mod high protein liquid (it tastes awful) so its been very hard getting enough down. I've also been eating the cool pops.
I was under the impression after my surgery I wouldn't be hungry any longer but boy was I wrong! My family has been eating everything and I feel like I'm starving to death here but can't eat. I think this is a awful feeling and I'm hoping it will pass soon!
I'm Praying that this gets better! someone please tell me it will??
