Hi there! This is my first time posting here, I wanted to share my experience with my gastric sleeve surgery. I was admitted to hospital at 800 surgery started arou d 915 and ended at 1015. Was kept in recovery for about 2 hours. When I finally woke up I was in an amazing amount of pain, I started asking for pain medicine, after I was given the medicine everything went back to normal. I was taken to my room and felt ok exempt for a lot of nauseas, but no pain. On second day I was doing much better . On third day that I was sent home around 9 a,m. I felt incredible, no pain whatsoever , I even went for a brief walk around the block for 20 ,ins . I just wanted to share if in case my experience will help others.

hello there. I got sleeved on November 11th. had a great surgery and recovery. I started my week pre diet with Protein shakes, it actually wen great. My problem right now is that i cant stand those shakes i am actually gagging on them, having a very difficult tine finishing them , and the chicken broth and and greek yogurt gives me goose bumps just listening to the words. i would like any kind of ideas on how you managed to go thru that liquid stage. thank you!!!

thank you very much for your support, i will try to mix it up a little bit with milk and will definitely use the search button! thank you!

thank you that sounds great!

i am really new on this so i do not know how to reply individually. all i can say today is my 4th day post and feel great. i had my gall bladder removed last year and the pain is not even close so i really knew what to expect, no gas pain that was the best part. i think i was just so ready for this , mentally, i had 10 years investigating and for whatosever reason i did not follow thru. this time i was so convinced so determined that it was my time. i have 4 small children all under 7, i knew i had to be at my best for them. today i went again for my 30 mins walk, i can do much more , but i will adhere to my dr's advice since i may no see it or feell my body has a lot of healing to do. i stopped yesterday pain medication and even drove to a near location without problem. i am really determined to think that it was all mentally, i went to my admission at the hosipiatl so happy, never did i have a doubt. blessing to all
