  1. I recommend Nike+running & weight record app on the iTunes Store if you have an iPhone
  2. You sound just like me! 192 pre-op diet 186 morning of surgery and sleep apnea. I am 1 month 5 days out and couldn't be happier! Don't get me wrong the first two weeks were tough but I would do it all over again!! I am as of this morning 164.6 I had a 12 day stall that everyone experiences and totally panicked. Once I got through that I have consistently loose .5 lb everyday or sometimes 1 lb a day. I am walking 3.5 miles (takes 1 hour) 5 days a week. Eating 2-3 oz at a time mainly protein then waiting 30-45 minutes to drink. I use my timer on my phone for every meal to make sure I am eating slow (30 minutes) You will do great it just takes some planning for meals and I never leave the house without a Quest bar or turkey jerky just incase I get stuck somewhere without a good choice.
  3. Well it's been 5 days 10 hours since my surgery and I can say I finally feel normal????????????
  4. How long does it take for the incision pain to go away?
  5. Is it hard for you to stand straight up? I am bent over. I had a bad reaction. To my first pain pills so switched to Tramadol that we have to crush up. My stomach is rolling like a thunderstorm. I've been walking.
  6. I had the sleeve done this past Monday November 3rd. When will I be able to stand straight up without feeling the pulling. What about the incisions not be so sensitive? I can only get in 1 oz an hour

    Day of surgery!

    Hello everyone! My surgery was yesterday in Houston and everything went as planned including repairing my Hiatal hernia! They gave me something to relax about 10 minutes before they took me back. My surgery took 1 hour 15 minutes then I was in the surgery recovery room for 2 hours (I don't even remember being in the surgery recovery room.) My husband was anxiously waiting for me in my hospital room. Yesterday I felt pretty good because I had an automatic morphine drip and I also had a push button if I needed more (I loved that thin) I was up most of the night with everyone checking on me. Respiratory breathing treatments 3 times (15 minutes each time) checking my BP and puls-oz and changing out my IV fluids and antibiotics. It's way busier than during the day! I would recommend bringing ear plugs if you are a light sleeper because of all the movement in the hallways. This morning they stopped my automatic morphine drip so all I have is my push button. 2 ounces at a time up to 5 times -an hour! I had my barium swallow to check for any leaks and no leaks!! I will have to say drinking that Fluid 4tablespoons totally filled me up!! Make sure you tell them that your stomach is the size of banana so it won't take as much liquid to coat your stomach. I had to stand up because It didn't feel like it was going slow. 20 minutes after we got back from that....my chicken broth, Jello and Water showed up. I drank 1 ounce of the chicken broth that took me about 15 minutes to sip it all. I also had two bites of raspberry jello. If anything it feels like in having a very bad period!!
  12. Thanks for the update! My IV is in and I'm ready to go back!
  13. How long ago did you have the surgery?
