No antibiotics... They gave me like 3 full bags in the hospital . I stayed overnight. I'm on liquid pain meds and nausea meds.

Do you have shoulder pain they talk about?

I haven't experienced that yet . I've been passing the gas by walking as much as I can. I just took my pain meds. I this it's all kicking in now. I've been on my liquid diet. It's a lil hard to get all my broth down .

Day 2 Post Op

Pain meds was a life saver ! I slept and woke up and walked through the night . I don't have an appetite at all. But I have to eat something. I can't get too much down. One piece of advice is to sip not gulp!!!!!

Gas is not excruciating but it's there... I'm just walking walking walking ! Like they said !

Thank you! I'm just ready for the soreness to go away and I can start walking in the gym. I'm still a bit confused on my diet . I'm getting a long quite well. Getting out of the bed by myself and fixing my own food. I am going thru an emotional ride hoping that I have as much success as the other people...

I just realized making my own sugar free Jello is better than store bought ready made .

Did you have to get staples?

      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.
