I went to Mexico to have mine done. I had surgery on march 6 and flee home on march 9. I was very scared to fly after surgery but it was just fine.

Great job!!!! I have only lost 8 pounds since my day (3/6). I need to stay off that darn scale!!! I weigh myself 2-3 times a day. I'm going to put it in my husbands work can do I can't use it. I'm following the rules to a T.

I had surgery on my bday!

I am counting from the first day of my preop diet 2/18. I was sleeved on 3/6. I'm a down a total of 22 pounds. I love this thread!!!!!!! It has helped get me through the last couple of days. Thanks for sharing everyone that has.

Do the breath strips work?? I don't even want to open my around anyone!!!!! Super gross!

I was also wondering when do we take the bandage off from where the drain tub was? I don't have stitches in it and I want it to heal but don't know when to take it off. Thanks again for the help. By the way I was sleeved on march 6

When can we take a bath? I didn't come home with post op instructions.

I want food too!!!! I don't feel hungry but I want it! I'm glad we are all in the same boat.

Wow. Thanks for sharing this!!! I am done now and didn't cheat but I wanted to!! I think this is a great reminder for all! My heart would have broke for her too!

I went to obesity goodbye center Like I said I really wish I had seen this thread before scheduling. I see a lot people going to the same places in Mexico.

I was sleeved on the 6th this month in Mexico. I went there because of price. Here in my hometown it was $20,000.00. In Mexico it was $4,500.00. Now that it is said and done. You get what you pay for. Im home and comfortable now but the hole in the place I went to was dirty and the care sucked!!!!! Most people I read about going to Mexico are going to a different plane than I went to. I wish I dad found this site before making my plans. That being said..... I'm ready for this new life and I'm ready to be all healed up and meeting with my personal trainer and finding the girl I see in the mirror!!!! Again in so thankful for this thread!!!!!

I had a c section 3 years ago a full hysterectomy a year ago and this pain is just different and it isn't as bad at al!!!!!! And this coming from a complete baby!!!! My pain was intense but I think I was all gas pain. Something I didn't have with other surgeries. Also my nurse was not on top of getting my pain meds. I should have been every 6 hours and I was lucky to get them every 7-8. Good luck

I was sleeved yesterday. My gas pain is over the top right now! I am in significant pain as well. I'm hoping this all goes away soon. Surgery went well so that is a plus. We were told my husband and I could stay in the same room together and that isn't happening. I am sharing a room with another lady and her husband. My husband slept in the entry area last night. I'm on the count down to 2PM today. I really want some ice chips.
