I'm 22 and getting the sleeve on December 11th I've told select family and friends. Most don't understand why I want to do this so it's difficult!

simplyblessed got a reaction from ProudGrammy in What "musts"should I purchases pre op?
A heated blanket/pad was my favorite thing the heat made my stomach feel so much better I also think it helped with gas pains!

simplyblessed got a reaction from coastalchick in Woop Woop, Surgery day on the 18th ... input on packing.
Slippers for you to walk around, a pillow for the ride home to cover your stomach, and mouthwash because your mouth is dry after and you can't drink. My favorite thing I brought was a heated blanket, it felt so good on my tummy!

I feel like a kid on Christmas. I woke up well before my alarm and couldn't go back to sleep. I report at 8 and have surgery at 10.
Good luck to everyone starting their journey today! Sending love, prayers, and good vibes your way. ❤

simplyblessed got a reaction from ria037 in Dec. sleevers.. I saw a topic about this but lost it? Anyone out there yet for dec. surgery?
I slipped a couple times and even 2 days before my surgery. The pre opt diet was hard for me. But don't beat yourself up everything is ok!

Had my surgery Thursday morning and got discharged Friday around 5. Pain was awful the first day! Get lots of rest but get up and walk! Don't refuse the pain medicine, it's better to keep it under control than use it when it gets bad. I had a lot of pain in my chest but once I walked it went away. I also couldn't sleep so I got up and walked a lot. 3 other ladies got it done and they told me I walked more than them combined. Today I could keep all liquid down and only got nauseous when I got pain medicine. At the beginning its rough but you can get through it! Good luck to everyone! The first 48 hrs are the hardest! But remember the outcome in the hard times! Here for you all if you have questions or anything else!
