Each day has been getting better than the previous day. I don't have the gas pains as much, but every time I eat or sip something my new stomach growls at me with great volume! Today I pushed myself a lil too much by walking with my dog so I'm exhausted!

I was sleeved last Monday October 14th I'm now 5 days post op. Can't wait to start the puree phase this Monday.

5th day post op no much gas pain anymore, but the soreness on my right side near the larger incision still aches enough that I taking the pain meds once a day hopefully I won't need the pain meds by Monday which will be 1 week to the the I was sleeved. -
I'm 2 days post op, day one was horrible cramping and cold chills all day and most of the night. Even with the symptoms the backup surgeon told me this was just my body getting use to the new anatomy (the sleeve) I was discharged around 8:30pm last night. Please tell things will get better? Suffering!

Thanks for all the encouragement. The cramping has not been as intense today as it was yesterday, but it has been a challenge to get down 1 shake & one 16oz bottle of water taken in 1oz shots every 20mins. I still have another 14.5oz shake and another bottle of water to try and get down today it's tough.
