So I'm about 10 hours out of surgery. Feeling good. I got all staples no stitches only hurts when I get up and use my stomach muscles. I only took 5ml of pain meds they recommended 10ml. Did 20 min of walking 1/2 mile, did good. The only pain I have is between my shoulder blades and moving into my chest it's from the gas. My walk helped get some out. :-) starting weight today 4/26/13 is 314 lbs my goal is to get down to 130!

Good luck. The gas was the only real pain I had. A heating pad helps

      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.
