What Does Yiur Sleeve Look Like?

[spieldose 14]

I had my two week visit yesterday and I had lost 18 lbs in 14 days. I'm very happy with this, but I asked to see my barium X-ray so I could see how big my new stomach is. She told me that I was the first one to ever ask to see it. They didn't have it there and only the surgeon can log into the system to let me see it. That was a shock to me. I've googled for pictures is sleeve X-rays but its apparently not a very popular search since I hardly found anything. I know my surgeon said he uses the smallest bougie size... Is there anyone willing to share a picture of their new stomach?

Don't have a picture, but they let me see it. It kinda looked like I expected, a long slender stomach. Bigger than the colon, but not much.

I will be able to see if at my one month if they remember, or if the surgeon is there. I wish I wouldn't have been too out of it at the hospital to ask lol

Mine was visible during my one week swallow - looked like a small plantain with a very small plum size pouch at the top. When the barium fills up the bottom fourth of the stomach it's gotta be small.

My surgeon gave me before and after pictures. Its amazing and gross at the same time LOL

My stomach was HUGE compared to my new pouch!
