    Day 1 post op!

    Sleeved 11/2/17. My feelings yesterday after surgery was droggy from meds a little bit of vomitting from anesthesia but other than that got up from my bed and also walked with no assistance. Was only given water and ice chips. Day 1 post op I got up at 6am, went for a walk around the hallways. Dr came in to discharge me and i sipped some chicken broth and jello. Feeling amazing! Best decision! (:

    Down 9.6lbs a week out from surgery! That's INSANE. I'll take the crazy losses while I can get them lol

    @JohnnyCakes - Seems like an very cruel thing to say to a fellow Bariatric Pal a few hours after her surgery, don't you think? Looks like you had major success with losing weight...how about lifting up your fellow forum members when they need it the most instead of trying to shame them for being brave enough to share at a tough time to help others who are right behind her? I think she is frickin' awesome for taking the time to post on the day of surgery with helpful hints and encouraging words.

    Had my surgery on Friday 10/27 afternoon. I was doing so well in recovery that they released me after only one night in the hospital I've been super fortunate so far, only needing one pain pill in the hospital, and right now just taking liquid ibuprofen. I've been burping since the hospital, but today was my first day at home with protein shakes and finally started passing gas - yay! lol Most of my discomfort is from soreness from the surgery and gas pressure. No issues getting my protein shakes in and keeping them down. All of my docs were super happy with my recovery, and my surgeon said the procedure went perfectly. Here's to the start of my new life!

    3 days out and hungry

    I know the surgery effects everyone differently, but I'm 3 days post op and not feeling any of the reduced hunger benefits. I'm on an antacid (though it's not a PPI) and drinking water. But I am starving. Is there anything else I should be doing? Why am I hungry?

    Feeling sick after multivitamin

    I take all my previous complaints back... can’t delete for some reason. Turns out the culprit was taking them on an empty stomach. Well, learning curve and all that.

    Bless your heart [emoji4] My surgery is on November 15. I would love to hear how you’re doing each day! I am so nervous about all of this and I have no idea what to expect. Hang in there and take good care of yourself.

    Veterans...Thank You...Chime In

    I first joined this community to get support. Now, three years past surgery, I'm here to offer support to both the PRE & POST surgery forums. We see a lot of the same questions being asked: "HELP!" or "Is this normal?!" or "How do I do this?!" I just hope the people getting support stick around long enough to become veterans & offer support too!
