I'm sleeved!!!!!

So I got sleeved on 3/9 and I have to say this is nothing like I was expecting. I have been virtually pain free, except for the gas. Walking isn't bad, it actually feels good. I hope all my other March sleevers have as easy of a time as I have! Good luck to all those waiting.

Congrats! That's wonderful hear! I've been needing some encouragement lately. I get sleeved March 15th, and I'm getting very nervous. Ok, Marchies! We can do this. How is everyone doing on their pre-op diets?

Feeling really awesome today! Four days out. Going to the mall and do some window shoppping getting in walking time. Once I get back to work the only time I will have to exercise is of an evening and on weekends. I will make the best of the time I have. No worries.

I was sleeved in the states. I got really nervous once I got to the hospital but this has been easy. Don't stress you will do fine.

Okay - so I was sleeved on March 8th. I haven't really had an extreme amount of pain. I'm 3 days out and have switched to Tylenol from Vicadin today. My biggest issue is Protein. I can't stand the Isopure and I can't seem to get the protein in any other way. I'm eating the broth and Jello but I think that I'm listless because of the lack of protein. I've got a call into the dietician at my surgeon's office, I hope they call back soon. Do you get that burning, gurgling going on when you swallow something (even water)?

Oh yes the gurgling is driving me NUTS. I burp with almost every sip. I'm being told this gets better.

It is SUPER encouraging to hear how good you are doing! I am March 14th and actually feeling a bit more calm than I did the beginning of this week. At the beginning of this week, I was thinking of not doing. I am doing this pre-op diet, so why can't I just lose the weight on my own. Today, I don't feel that at all and I am ready to do this. I guess what I am saying is, I am all over the place! I hope I have as good a recovery as you do!!

[Recovering Hedonist 1]

Seeing this makes me feel so much better! I am scheduled for March 15th and am a nervous-excited combo. I am ready to be done with the liquids pre-op ...

Congrats to those sleeved and good luck to all! Yay for the loser's bench!
