I had my revision on June 17th. Spent one night in the hospital and am now home.

The pain was worse than my band but the PCA pump helped a lot. Differentiating between gas and pain has been interesting. I haven't started with the gas-X but am seriously considering it.

I was told to get in at least 64oz a day. That has been really challenging. I'm not hungry or thirsty so it becomes hard to remember to sip all the time.

I will update as I progress but I will say BYE BYE Band I hated you and I am glad to no longer have you be a part of my life ????

Best of luck to you. Life without the band is wonderful. The sleeve will work for you and you won't regret any of this.

I was sleeved on the 11. I'm still not hungry or thirsty. My dr told me to set a timer for every 15 mins or so to remember to sip. I have yet to get in the 60 oz they suggested. Good luck too you keep us posted on your progress. :)

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
