Shellbell333 10 Posted July 15, 2013 Yah! Push the pain pump button IF you need it. We will never judge. I'm 3 weeks out and lost 24lbs. After the 1st week I missed chewing and swallowing. But after the 2nd week I could have baby foods and that made me happy. Now this week it's Fork soft foods. I have no regrets. I just have to remember to sip ALL THE TIME and walk. You're on your way.

taylormarie421 75 Posted July 16, 2013 Thanks guys I'm feeling so much better than I expected. My chest and stomach feels sore but thats really where my pain is and getting up and down. i do have this small tube coming out of one incision that is like a pain ball I don't have to press it because its constant. But that is annoying. Doesn't really hurt and I know it's there to help but I don't really like having something hanging out of my tummy lol I just got home so I'm just trying to relax Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Felt soooooo much better when doc took it out, I am 5 weeks out now, and doing pretty well. Just trying to get my head in line with my new little pouch.

adex80 2 Posted July 16, 2013 I was sleeved on the 11 of this month the only pain that I have had is in my wounds, no gas pain , I can drink up to 6 oz no problem. I'm on full liquids which I feel more satisfied the first 3 days I was so hungry , couldn't drink the Isopure liquid it was nasty , I'm drinking the premier chocolate Protein not so good but I have to , Waiting for my Unjury chocolate splendor and. The unflavored one hopefully taste better , the problem that I have is that I hate artificial sweeteners , But so far I'm happy I was expecting to be worse but thanks God not bad at all only when I caugh . I was sleeved at kaiser with dr Casillas it was a good experience no. Regrets till now. 1 KitKat40 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
