Hello Fellow Sleevers,

I was sleeved on the 7th, and am still in the hospital and I feel amazing already. Since I am still on the liquid diet, I was amazed that I became full after eating 3 spoons of Jello. In all honesty food is not on my mind at all.

I am happy to be in the losers bench!!

Im okay with the Water sip, sip, sip which makes me feel full.....yay....until you experience it for yourself, it is hard to explain! However, the gas is what has me floored. How do you pass it?

I am still in the hospital and have yet to try anything so far. I must admit I have seen some improvements since last night. The walking must be helping!

Walking is key to moving gas in the hospital. I also got some relief from doing what I did for my infant daughter: "burping" by patting the left side of my abdoment rhythmically and running my hand from ribs to hips to guide gas out of the large intestine. My nurses gave me a warmed blanket to help relieve muscles locked by morphine; that was heavenly. The best relief came from transitioning off morphine and down to codeine and then children's liquid ibuprofen. Once the narcotics were out, my gut work up and started processing the gas as it should. Hang in there! It gets better.

Finally drifted off about 1:30 but had to get up a couple of times to get rid of all the Water I pounded before midnight. On the way to the hospital now. Good luck all you 10th sleevers!
