    October Sleevers - Who else

    I'm not for sure if full is the right way to say it. I feel like I need to burb and its like a air bubble. I sip pretty slow, but sip all the time. From what my doctor said to me I really won't feel full until I start eating food. It's much easier to tell then. Hope the pain stop soon for you! I walk five min every hour and drink drink drink. It makes a huge difference to walk.

    October Sleevers - Who else

    I'm in day six out and honestly feeling amazing!! I actually feel like I want to eat something other then liquids, but I'm following my plan. Stepped on the scale today and so far from my starting weight of 208.4 I weighed 195.3!!!! Amazing to be under 200! I have my ten day follow up Friday and I'm hoping I can start puréed foods soon. I'm able to get about 47oz of fluid down plus my shakes today so far! Best of luck to everyone!! I feel so good I hope to get a mani pedi Friday!! !! No regrets!! 100% in love with my sleeve!!

    Confused. Feel the same?

    I feel the same way!! It's amazing. Just a little gas here and there, but I think this is how you should feel! Just take it as a blessing and be thankful. I would not try to find the negative in things, look ahead to the positives. Keep to the diet the doctor ordered and you'll be on your way soon enough. I'm 6 days post op and I keep looking forward to the great life ahead of me!
  8. Beauty how's it going for you today?

  10. It's very normal! I'm 5 days post op and I was very scared. My doc had then give me some Meds before I was taken into the or to calm me and I do not recall anything after that. It took about a second and my husband said I was sleeping. It was for the best when I woke up I was in ICU and my nurse, doc, and husband were there. Said everything went perfect! Then I woke up next when they had me start to walk about four hours later. I just remember the Cotten swabs and chap stick were my BFF the first 24 hours. You are going to do amazing!! Just say a prayer and enjoy the new healthy you. Everyday has a new challenge, but I am starting to feel better. Good luck!!

    Hello October 2nd!

    Well today seems better for me. I've already been able to drink 22oz today and I ate 2tbs of Greek vanilla protein yogurt. In the next hour I'm going to drink a whey bullet. Watermelon. The grape I had yesterday wasn't that bad. I think tonight I'm going to have some soup. If I can keep it up. Sleeping has been awful. A couple hours here and there. How's everyone else doing?

    Hello October 2nd!

    I'm not for sure if you have a recliner or a chase lounger. That is what I'm sleeping on at home, cause my doctor said if you lay flat in bed pain can get worse.

    Hello October 2nd!

    I'm not for sure if its normal. I can't feel anything going down. Maybe you could call your doctor and ask him. Hope it gets better soon.

    Hello October 2nd!

    Okay I'll try the apple sauce. I started taking my pain med around clock today and I can tell the difference. I took zofran and they also have a nausea patch behind my ear. It suppose to last for three days. If this is the worst part I'll take it. My blood pressure has been normal ever since surgery and that's huge for me.

    Hello October 2nd!

    My cut on the left side is the most painful. He said that's where they pulled my stomach out. I thought this morning it was going to be a good day, I spoke to soon. Feeling so much gas and its making me puke when I sip a little bit of water. Anyone else feeling this.

    October Sleevers - Who else

    Well I'm not for sure if this helps, but I just had mine done on Oct 2 at fort Campbell. They haven't stopped the surgeries there the nurse said. Not for sure what any other bases are doing, but I was so pleased with my entire processes. My doctor was amazing! Best of luck!

    Hello October 2nd!

    Okay, so I was given the non slip socks, but I found some nice fuzzy ones at Wal-Mart in a two pack for 3 dollars. It was worth it to me. As far as bringing a ipad or anything. That's your call I was sleeping most of the time I was there and didn't even think about ipads or anything. I had my cell phone and that was good enough. Your going to be tired from the drugs and they are going to have you walking. Best of luck! I would make sure you bring chapstick!! That was a must for me.
