4 Days Post Op

So I had my sleeve done on the 18th.. Just now getting out the hospital and getting home to settle in. Been drinking 3-4 liters of Water a day plus some little sorbets and yogurts here and there!

Is there one who can tell me about the swelling and how long it usually lasts? How soon do you see changes in the tummy?

That is different per person. Some people have extra swelling at five or six weeks out. You can drink more than most people i know so soon after surgery. So maybe in your case the swelling is not that bad. I Am 11months post op And have lost all my excess weight without exercise so dont worry. The weight will drop whatever you do. Enjoy the weightloss And do not But a lot of clothes. Your size can change every two weeks

I hope so I started at 300 .. pre-op full liquid diet for 3weeks left me at 280 ... fresh out of surgery im at 272 hopefully this swelling can go away and i shed quicker. OF COURSE IM SORE but not too bad im continuously getting up walking around the house and yard and neighborhood too so hopefully this wasn't a waste
