I got my sleeve



Recommended Posts

I am 2 days post op and doing well. Spent 1 night in the hospital. Pain is not an issue liquid lortab is working well every 4-5 hours I take the smallest amount and I am good. Some gas but not a real problem, finally released some from the south end if you know what I meantongue.gif, I am on a full liquid diet and am doing ok same with the sipping of h2o I think I will get in 40-48 oz, not what they want but considering I am 2 days out I think that is good. I am just laying around taking it easy, getting up and walking around every hour or so. I find I feel better by the hour. Now getting ready for my daughters sleeve on 10/13/11

Congrats on being sleeved, and I'm so happy things are going well for you!

:)

Today is day 4, Some pain in one incision area but only with some movement. Tolerating my full liquid diet well, Made up some sheets on the computer where I can keep track of when I took my pain med, how much Protein and liquids I am getting in with what time. It is helping me stay on track. Have some fatigue but hopefully that will go away soon

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
