If you feel the need, than go back. I had the same issue and ended up staying another night due to it. I know how you feel, as I still dry heave. Just try little sips or go back.

I'm glad you are feeling better. My incisions are held closed by glue! No stitches and no staples. I'm sure that is why mine don't hurt as much as many on here. I will post a few photos of my glued incisions so you can see the difference. Feel better! My surgery was Monday and I feel pretty darn good today.

Go back to the hospital is you feel bad, I wanted to go home too but I knew that I needed to be able to survive on my own at home before leaving, hope you feel better wishing you a fast recovery.

I have to say that we are ALL stars!! for going through what we went through, getting the sleeve is not easy and it gets better with each new day but it is not for the weak because you really really need to be strong for yourself.

Was wondering, how many people had hernias that needed to be repairded?

Me. Along with my band scar tissue clean up, my surgery took almost 5 hours! It was supposed to take 1.5 hours! But...thankfully I havent been having the heartburn I was having pre-sleeve! :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
