Hi everyone, I was sleeved on the 31st. It was tougher than anticipated so I didn't really have the energy to come and check in with you all. It all sounds like your doing really well. For those sleeved earlier in the month, it's encouraging to read that it will get easier ☺ I was discharged from hospital yesterday and will be staying in my hotel for another 4 nights till I fly back to the UK. I'm very grateful for this time as I really couldn't imagine flying the way I feel now. The gas pains and cramps are a little breathtaking but I know it's just my body's way of adjusting. I read some people had to inject themselves afterwards, others didn't - I was one of the unlucky ones and have to for 3 weeks ???? When I was younger I used to have a phobia of needles, and whilst in the hospital I didn't bat an eyelid on the number of injections I was given, having to inject myself last night my phobia resurfaced. It took 4 hours to summon the courage but I eventually did it! It's crazy because everything I'd just put my body through but there I was stumbling over a little injection. Anyway, just wanted to check in with you all, hope all the late sleevers are rid of their gas pains soon ???? xx

Mine is on the 31st, so excited

Hi there, I too have my surgery on the 31st March. I was not told do a liquid diet for 2 weeks, just to restrict my carb, fat and sugar intake and to increase my Protein, making sure my total calorie intake was under 1000 cals per day. That being said I have decided to stick to Protein shakes for the most part, and only having chicken breast and veg when I feel like eating something. I would not want to advise you against what you have been told but I do wonder why Doctors recommendations can vary greatly. I hope your Dr will allow you a last meal of steak (or lamb) but if you can stay strong and resist, even better. 8 days till we too are on the sleeved side

Hello fellow March Sleevers, I have mine on 31st March. Just wanted to wish those of you who have already had your sleeve a speedy recovery and a prayer for those who are having their's today. Can't wait to join you all on the sleeved side

Hey guys, I have just joined the forum and am having my sleeve on the 31st March. Although technically not April, I would love to join your group
