Giving An Update 5 Days Post Operation



Recommended Posts

Okay so I am giving an update 5 Days Post Operation. I am going to be truthful here!! The surgery was rough! Had a bad reaction to the anesthesia. Stayed in the hospital and extra day!! Still sore as I don't know what!! Entire Stomach is Bruised and I can't walk very far. I burp like a nasty trucker. And I have Gas in my entire body. My back constantly Hurts and I feel Dizzy all the time with hunger pains but can't eat much at all. Other then that I am fine and Alive and I AM GOING TO REACH MY GOALS AND KICK BUTT!!! I AM ON A MISSION!!! I DON'y CARE WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE I AM ON THIS FOR THE LONG HAUL AND I WILL LIVE ON PURPOSE WITH A HEALTHY SEXY BODY AND I MEAN IT!!!!!!! :ph34r: :lol: :ph34r:

Ditto! It's a long battle and being positive is what I try and be. I did not go through all this not to be successful.

I used a heating pad on my shoulder to help with some of the gas. You'll be feeling better in no time! I was back to work about 10-12 days after my surgery and I was feeling much better then. It'll be worth it in the long run! Good luck! We're here if you need us! :)

Hang in there! Sip on Protein shakes to get as much Protein in as you can. Walk, walk, walk. I did laps up and down my hallway, it helps with the gas.

Stay on top of the pain with the pain meds, take them when your pain is level 3. Don't wait. The heating pad was my best friend.

Feel better soon!!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
