Surgery on may 6th, so 8 days post op. Down 7.7 lbs so far. The worst pain I had was from the drain, that was removed on the 9th. I was given 8 pain pills post op and I just took the last one last night, they helped at night since I toss and turn a lot. I'm on 2 weeks full liquids, getting about 50g Protein a day. I was making very thin potato Soup the other day and it went down fine, but then I forgot about my limitations and had a slice of the soft potato. I thought I was going to die, it hurt so much to get it down. So for now I'm happy sticking with liquids. My incisions seem to be healing fine, they just itch a little bit from the scabbing process. The only other issue I had was starting my period early even though I'm on birth control, the first day was horrible cramps, but it feels like normal now.

I had the same thing where my period got a jump start...doctors said the hormonal changes from the stress caused it...

You will do great. The first 24 hours is the worst. After that each day builds on the previous.

My surgery is scheduled for May 28th. i have always been bigger than most' date=' my highest weight was 280, I would like to get down to 170-165. My mother is supportive, but my daughters father, and older sister feel I am taking the easy way out. I have not been in the 100's since grade school. So Im looking forward to this new change. I am so grateful to have found a forum that is supportive.[/quote']

I just found out my surgery date is May 28th as well!! :)

Hey everyone, I've been stalking the VSG page for a while, but this is my first post. I went today for my admission paperwork, EKG, and blood work. My surgery is the May 21st. I am having my lap band removed and sleeve placed, my anxiety is through the roof. I know it's normal to feel anxious before a surgery. I guess I feel more nervous about failing the sleeve, like I did the band. I know I can't think that way, but I'm so creaking nervous. Happy thoughts, happy thoughts..... Good luck everyone.
