Crazy

I was sleeved in June 10th starting weight 398 Current weight 288 It's kinda crazy

I had surgery on the 10th. I learned that when I'm hungry I'm starving and than two bites and I'm stuffed like thanksgiving it's just how it is

My never had acid reflux my stomache doctor started me in something for it a month before and wants me on it 2 months he said most people develop it at first . Today I forgot take it and I have similar cramps

Lol I was sleeved on the 10th and I'm the same way when I'm hungry I need to eat right than

Pretty good . I've been lucky I haven't needed pain meds spent one night in hospital 4 incisions . Just keep moving the minute you wake up walk it helps

The most painful part for me the entire bed was how uncomfortable I was in the hospital bed lol like I'm more sore from that than the surgery itself

I've been pretty good don't get me wrong it's painful it is surgery but I wasn't in a lot. If you can tolerate the pain try not to get on the strong meds cause I kept telling them I was in pain and it's not bad so they never put in morphine they kept me on tylenol so being home they gave me tylenol making the transition easier. Some people go on morphine at the hospital and are like it's not terrible but than get home and are miserable. The gas pain is real but if you walk the minute you wake up it will start moving and be less intense. I still have it now but very small

Yup got home today ! Just keep moving the more pain your in the more you need to move When I first started drinking it was hard to swallow cause the bubbles from the anthesia but I just kept burping taking it slow etc

Hey Im sooo happy for you how are U feeling?? Any pain? Discomfort? I actually woke up still recovery room ready to walk lol I had 4 incisions no drain. All I've been doing is walking so just keep moving I had barely any pain haven't used pain pills

Officially sleeved yesterday ! Good luck to the rest of the june sleeve

630 am tomorrow home stretch

I'm tomorrow too !

I love instagram it's been so motivating . Honestly I just talked to people who had who are going through it on here etc you just have to remember these people are good at what they do.your surgeon your hospital team. It is their job day in and day out. These last two days I just keep thinking of all the things I ll be able things accomplish after

I'm sure everyone goes through it I'm having surgery June 10th and starting to get nervous and panic. When you start looking up complications or thinking what if I wake up in extreme pain lol. Any tips for just calming down. I've been completely calm up till now I guess I just didn't think it was actually happening . I mean I never even had a cavity let alone major medical procedures so any advice would be great !

It's crazy to think that I started commentinf on this post so long ago and now it's Wednesday . It's like it flew

I defiantly appreciate all the responses it'd crazy how like I haven't been nervous or scared up until now . I guess I didn't feel like it was really coming but it is so I won't dwell on negatives I'm keeping it postive .

Thanks so much for response I defiantly feel better

I can't lie the pre op clear liquid diet sucks yesterday I was miserable but today I'm fine

I'm sure you'll get It and be on the loser bench soon !

Finally approved my date remains the same june 10th ! Now I'm nervous ! I just made a weightloss instagram so if anyone wants to follow my name is sleevethis

same date as me !

I may end up July at this rate. My insurance just received my paper work and my surgery is in a week ! I'm on liquids so fingers crossed that all goes through this week but I seriously doubt it I'll be in liquids for a month at this rate.

So I'm finally done with all my pre op doctors and insurance is ready to receive paper work. I'm scheduled for surgery June 10th and I've been stressing that somehow I might get denied. I feel like my surgeons office has been very hands off not really stressing approval at all. I see people getting approval months in advance when mine hasn't been submitted with a month away and they are very well you have plenty of time. Lol should I stress or be doing something else or do most surgeons offices have it handled

Of course ! I call my insurance like everyday and they say the process hasn't even been started through them. Mean while my surgeons office is saying it's all set. The hospital told me my Co pay and are like you wouldn't be this far if you weren't approved ... the struggle I feel the same way Completely stresssedddddd like I can't even relax. I'm postive my insurance hasn't recieved paper work and next week I'm going to be panicking all week. I feel like maybe they don't send it out till the week before which is whatever but don't tell me it's out and it's not . Fingers crossed we both get over this !
