My husband N I were back at it 1week out. But there are alot of things you can do for him, vice versa!

YES I also had the same experience. The muscles are recovering. They stretched that incision the most of them all! Iam 8wks post-op and it went away around 4 or 5 weeks. I even posted on here back when I was 2 weeks out and alot of responses also had the same feelings you are having. It gets better! : )

Hello ALL i'd like to know, is it 30 min after a meal to drink WATER OR 1HOUR? how long do you wait? Thank you

THANK YOU!! thats what I thought, but have been getting mixed info. Thanks again Ladies

I feel the same way right now! 7wks post-op. Food was my friend, companion etc. I had to say goodbye. Now I just need things to do.. Im a stay at home mom w- 3 kids. My roar has gotten louder : / IN the beginning my oldest would say " Mom are you OKAY?" No i was'nt I lost my BF. All I can say is it does get better : ) Support groups have helped me tremendously, w/ ideas etc... Hope you feel better soon

My Surgeon used a 40f oversown, he explained less complication in future w/acid reflux etc. Im happy w/his decision. But agree if above sleever if you are a self pay you should demand what you want. Well if not you do have to follow that Surgeon's requirements & what Ins approves.

Hello all Im 8weeks post-op now, and craving Sushi. Well California rolls (real crab) my ? Is are they bad or good or OKAY for you? Would it be okay to have Sushi? I could probably only eat 2/ maybe 3! What do yall think? Thank you

IM A BURPER!!! after I eat belch breath belch. Ive tried everything from slowing food intake down ETC.. its just the new me. My kids think its cool: / AFTER SURGERY I CAN SOOO RELATE TO " Better out than in I say"

Yeah I wouldnt tell them either! YOUR TOTALLY GONNA BE FINE! LIKE I SAID BEFORE YOUR NOT OUT BINGING! GOOD LUCK! I KNOW YOUR FEELINGS RIGHT NOW, I WAS SO SCARED,NERVOUS-almost walked out that hospital w-just a gown(luckily my hubby was there to reassure me how far Ive gotten) cuz I was FREAKED OUT!! 7wks post-OP AND I WOULD DO IT AGAIN!! LOVE MY SLEEEEEVE! YOU WILL TOOOOO!

WOW VSGFORAHEALTHIERLIFE! Your scale of weight loss and timing sounds exact to me... Im currently 7weeks post-op and wondering the same Question. I need to loose 100lbs. Plus more to be what im suppose to weigh 160lbs. I was also 220ish pre pregnancy w-3rd child 7 yrs ago : ( Gain 50 lbs w each child. Couldnt get it off without with all the diets on the world.. LOVE MY SLEEVE.. thanks for this ???? Jen

GIRLLLL, DONT CANCEL! I HAD NO PRE-Op diet! My surgeon required me to loose 30 lbs before surgery would be scheduled. I did that within a 5 month period. He said that is plenty enough to shrink liver. Oh and then nothing to eat or drink the day before surgery. You'll be fine.. Great on Protein shakes though, that helps with shrinkage tooooo. Unless your gorging on highly fatty foods for weeks up to surgery( Mcdonals,burger king-i could go on w-America's death traps) YOU WILL BE FINE!!!

WOW DEERPARK!! Your encouraging me! Thats great..

RIGHT ON NORMAN!!!!! VERY WELL SAID... Peeeeps If you dont like the thread/original post, DONT COMMENT... HELLLLOOOOO.. WE ALL LEARNED THIS IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL RIGHT?!

OH YEAH, YOU WILL SEE SOMETHING FROM ALL THAT HARD WORK!! Give it 3-5 days. GREAT JOB!!
