November Sleevesters?

[socalsleever 17]

Surgery was Nov 1st and I have never felt better in my life! Day 2 was a little rough but I was up and running on day 3....literally. I worry that this whole recovery process has been so simple. I know for others that is not the case so I am sensitive to that. My words of wisdom for upcoming sleeves.... You know your body best so do what works for you. We all recover differently and have different tolerances. Drink fluids and try as hard as you can to get your Proteins in as it does speed recovery. I think the majority of the Protein Shakes make you want to reck even if you were perfectly healthy let alone just having the majority of you stomach removed. I live off of the pre-made choc muscle milk light shakes sold at costco. The mix is not the same! Again, we are all different so keep trying things until you find your fit. Good luck to all of the November sleeves. We are all going to be on our way to happy and healthier selves. Won't it be a relief not to look for another diet to try for our New Year's resolution!

I'm day two post op still in the hospital and today seems the worst I think it's all just gas pain because the left side of my stomach hurts and below my shoulder hopefully tomorrow gets Better

Hang in there! Day 2 like I said is not great. When do you head home? Get moving around to the extent you can to move the gas pains. Day 3 hopefully is better for you. Keep me posted on your progress

I slept the whole day. I think our bodies need it to heal and work out all of the meds from surgery. Sounds like you are on track. Wait until you start seeing the pounds drop. I was 237 before preop diet, didn't remember to weigh on surgery day because I left the house too early and today weighed in at 217 so I am pretty happy. I think you are going to do great!
