Hi Red Velvet Gangers!!

I am glad to heart that you made it thru!! My surgery was at 4, I was in my room by 7. Dr. said it went perfectly!!

I, thankfully, did not have nausea or vomiting. Just ALOT of gas. That gas is no joke and HURTS like hell! I walked a lot, but did not help. I was miserable yesterday. Felt like I could not breathe and was having a heart attack. Today it still hurts, but not as bad, I did some tootin' this morning and it seemed to relieve some pressure. I am not taking my Lortab, as I do not really have pain other than gas!

I feel like I am doing well. I just do not have an appetite, which I am sure is normal! I have been drinking fluids, and am having Isopure today. There is 40 grams of Protein in that bottle and I have drank half of it since 7 this am. Dr. just told me to focus on liquids for now. I will be able to handle more in a few days.

I hope you all are able to recover quickly and feel well. I really think I am going to love my sleeve!!!

Hello Red Velvet Ladies!

I am so glad everyone made it through their surgeries without any major problems. My surgery was scheduled at 8:30am and I was in my room by 12pm. The Dr. said everything looked great! I ended up staying for two nights though because of the nausea and vomiting I was experiencing. I could not get anything down the 1st night. The second day was much better so they decided they could release me. I feel a little better, but I am still hurting from the biggest incision on my left

side. I am now trying to focus on getting in my liquids, but that has been such a challenge I hope we all have a quick recovery. Remember no pain no gain or in this situation no pain no loss

I read alot on here and see that people say their biggest incision is to the left. Mine is above and to the right of my belly button. I am sure it is fine, but why is mine different than everyone else's?

Anyone know?

Thanks,

Kelly
