WOW! What a day!!



Recommended Posts

Went for my 1 week appointment today. Feeling yucky today so I was glad that I was going to see my surgeon. I ended up spening 6 hours @ the hospital. Bloodwork, 2 bags of Fluid by IV, then the :blink: awesome (just kidding) barium!! CT scan shows no leak! Thank God!!!!:) I have a hematoma on the staple line! EEKS! So I am being watched like a hawk for possible high fevers, pain, etc. Kind of scary! Oh, I almost forgot, The doctor pulled my drain as well! That Sucked!!!!!! Hope everyone else is having a good day! :D

Hi Carolina -

Hope you are feeling better by now! I was sleeved on the 23rd, so we are about the same place in this journey. I've lost 19 pounds and am feeling great! I started soft food today, so that is a nice change!

Take Care,

Jen :-)

      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.
