The drain bothered me the most. When they took it out it hurt because the gas moved. I got mine taken out before I left the hospital. I still have pain in the incision if I over do it. I'll be 3 weeks tomorrow.

That's great.

I'm the same once a week. I have colace and miralax. I guess ill take the miralax. Do I have to take something everyday? I'm so uncomfortable. This really stinks.

Good luck to all of you.

Omg what a mistake. This is how this sleeve is helping but now I'm Freaking out. I got into a huge fight with my mom detail don't matter but I went back to my safe stop. I thought what can I have at mcdonalds that will make me feel better. I got a Michael frape. I said if I put Protein in in ill be,fine. Oh no. I feel sick my nose is running and I'm sweating. How stupid to let myself go back I've been so good for so ling even before surgery. I just tried to stay away from any problems. Now I see I can't do that. Anyway I was sleeved on 9/5 am I ok? I'm embarrassed to call the doctor.

Not everyone has complications. I was nervous too. I felt the same way that its elective and I might be setting myself up for a life of doctors visits and buyers remorse. I have 3 children what if I die. I didn't and I'm fine never felt sick. Just listen to the doctors and your body, take it slow. I'm 2.5 weeks out and 20 lb down. I physically feel like I never had anything done. Except when I eat its a little uncomfortable but I just had major surgery what did I expect. Just drink as much as you can and take it slow. Remember you probably have tried everything and this will work. Good luck.

I was cleared to eat soft foods all protein. As light as I can on carbs and no sugar. I was excited but now not so much. I ate canned chicken and a scramble egg today but its hard it takes forever and my stomach makes so much noise. It feels like its stuck sometimes. I'm not gassy just a little uncomfortable for like a half hour. Does anyone have any suggestions or food they are eating that goes down easier?

All sound really good thanks to everyone for you input.

Congratulations time flies so fast you don't believe how fast you recover.

Congratulations welcome to the other side.

I just got a full foil on Tuesday. Sleeved 9/5. I hope its ok. I just thought I wanted it to look good for a little while before it starts falling out.

Thanks. I think I've been pretty good about weighing myself. I've only done it a couple of times since I've been home from the hospital. I was very happy when I got on their scale. It was like xmas. I want to keep that feeling so I'm going to try and hold off.

Boston here.

It was on my list of liquids. Just the low sodium.

Sleeved 9/5 down 15 since then. I can drink fine. I am hungry I can't tell if its head hunger or what I really miss food. I have my post op appt. Thursday I hope he moves me to stuff like tuna and canned chicken. No pain at all. I really don't feel like I even had surgery. The biggest problem I have is I'm allergic to the gall bladder medicine and have this incredibly itchy rash on my arms and legs. Also I can't sleep. Anyone else have that?

Trader joes soups are the best. I love the creamy tomato.

I've been reading the posts about walking. I am 10days put from surgery. I wanted to go to my local park in the morning. It's 2.5 miles. Before surgery I walked it almost every day 2xs so 5 miles total. Do you think it would be ok to walk it just once? I feel really good. I don't want to push it.

I've been walking every day just not that far. I don't want to push it. I'm so scared of a leak. Ive been reading that people get even though everything was fine. I feel really good, except not being able to sleep.

I was positive too. I was given 14 days of antibiotics and They did the surgery. I have my first follow up next week I hope all is well. I'll find out and post.

Are the slimes with solid food? I'm still on liquids have not got that yet. I did have something like dumping today.

Thanks it passed. I made myself walk even though I thought I was going to throw up. I haven't thrown up at all since the sleeve. I won't do that again. Lesson learned the hard way.

Sorry Mocha

You look fantastic. Keep up the GREAT work.

Wow, that's wonderful. I was able to the workout before my sleeve. I've been going crazy waiting to workout.

Great for you. What's your sleeve date. I can't wait to workout.
