Hi Seriousaboutme! We had surgery the same day. I hope your pain is well-controlled. Let's compare notes sometime.

Hi how are you feeling? I am walking but I am suffering from gas and pain. How are you handling the Water.

Hi how are you coping now? I'm annoyed! My iv had to be redone 3 times. I am in pain and I'm in a 3 person room..

Hello, thank god, I was finally approved because they found my blood type. I had surgery yesterday, everything went very well. I have a lot of gas/insishion pain. I was just discharged and am going home. How did everything go with you?

I'm having gas pain too. In my lower stomach its the worst. They are keeping me tonight because I didn't get my 60oz of Water down today. Plus I'm still in pain so it's okay.

It didn't hurt, but let me tell you it was a very disturbing feeling. I could feel the tube moving out and being pulled from my insides. Be thankful when it is over lol. But no pain at least.

How those who made it home manage sleeping in bed? I'm still not sure how to get in and out and I really want to sleep there tonight. My body needs to lay flat. So far I just came home and took a nap in a semi-comfortable recliner.

How's everyone doing on figuring out when their pouch is full? I think I am just starting to. It is pressure/pain at this point. There's like this warning signal that comes with it of "If take one more sip everything is getting ejected." Is it like that for others?

Hello everyone, I am new to this site. I had surgery on 8/16 but I am a sleeve revision to bypass for gerd/reflux reasons. It'll be 2 weeks tomorrow and I am still in some pain (tore abdominal muscles post surgery) but it seems to be getting better everyday.

I am happy to be home, but almost wish I was still in the hospital, so it would be easier to control my pain. Last night was a long sleepiness night because of pain, but thank God for my wife that helps me out of bed. I spend half the night in bed, the other half in a recliner. It feels good not to be hungry, but I'm just too damn sore, but it will be worth it!

I know EXACTLY what you mean! I only get up out of bed to walk or eat or get in the recliner, whichever one doesn't hurt as bad...having a really hard time getting Water in...doing good with the Protein.

Hi everyone I hope all of you that had your surgery this week are healing well. As for me I am still in hospital. I am having difficulty drinking an lousy 1 oz. In a hour. I have terrible gas and feel full making it harder to drink. There not letting me leave until I consume 3 ozs. How's everybody doing?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
