I'm excited and nervous at the same time! I truly believe if this wasn't meant to happen I would have had hiccups with all the preop testing. But it has been smooth sailing! Ahhhh! It's really here!!

2 day update, came home the day after surgery, I think I pushed it a little bit! Was really sore this morning but pushed myself into drinking some liquid and did just fine!! I've been in the bathroom constantly so I must be losing the 10 pounds of Water weight I gained from the IV'S. My shower felt wonderful!!!

How is everyone else doing?

Sleeved on the 21st have indigestion having a hard time w my liquids how much are you drinking cause I'm only drink 6oz and 3oz of Jello a day I think I'm scared from all the vomiting I did in the hospital for two day I'm down 10 pounds since yesterday I'm still so very sore it hurts when I swallow

[Debrry 32]

Oh! I didn't have any indigestion! Geez, sounds terrible! I'm not getting in all my liquids but I'm not sweating it since I know I will gradually have to get them all in!

I was sleeved on 1/21/2013 as well. First night went really smoothly with the IV full of pain med. I felt great. I walked a lot. Soreness but no real pain. The next day I was told I was going to be released. I got off the morphine at 9AM. Things dragged and my pain levels increased over time. Then I was told that I may have a leak. Pain seemed more intense at that point. I took percocets and felt better. My Dr came in and told me that my gastric scan looked fine and I had no leak. He said the radiologist didn't know what he was looking at. Everything felt better immediately. I was released on Wednesday at 4PM and have been taking 2 percocets every day just to keep ahead of pain... but there isn't too much pain. The worst is a pain in my right shoulder from gas but it is bearable. RIght now I'm sitting on a couch with my 6 year old and he is bouncing non-stop. That doesn't feel great He can't help himself.

Diet has been ok so far. I felt dehydrated this morning and have tried to drink a lot. Crystal Light goes down much easier than Water. I've had 40oz today and 16oz of Protein shake w/ milk. I also had a cream of vegetable Soup that was a tasty change from the usual.

My belly always feels stuffed from all the liquid. I suppose this is normal due to swelling and the volume of liquid.

I haven't weighted myself yet. I just bought a Withings scale that will be delivered tomorrow. I'm psyched to start this new phase of my life. I want a life that doesn't revolve around food, weight, and diets.

No regrets so far. I made this choice. I own it.

How are you able to get that much liquids in

[Zoso 7]

I don't know. I always have my crystal light next to me and am sipping frequently. I tried hard today because my calves have been crampy, which is a sign of dehydration. I hope I'm not over stuffing my sleeve. Calories wise, I've had 587 today with 81 grams I protein... Not inducing my Percocet laced Sugar Free Chocolate pudding.< /p>
