Hey everyone!

I just started this account a few minutes ago. I will have my gastric sleeve surgery tomorrow at 7 am :o

I'm so nervous and excited at the same time. Any advice? :)

I'm in the very beginning stages. Have my sleep apnea scheduled tomorrow. I see you have had your surgery by now. How did it go? How are you feeling? I am excited for you and cannot wait for these 6 months to go by so I can be where you are at now!

Yes! 3 days post op today. The surgery went perfect, I feel some pain sometimes but I guess that's just the usual. I can't wait till I start seeing changes in myself.

Don't worry they will go by fast :)

Best of luck!

Well, I ain't gonna lie... That was probably the worst pain I've ever felt when I woke up from surgery. It took them about an hr to get my pain taken care of. But we got it under control. I've walked quite a bit and did what's called the blue ice test. I eat ice colored with some type of blue dye and they make sure none comes out in my drain tube as an extra leak test. I still look like I've been noshing on smurfs.

My vision is extremely blurry Bc of the nausea patch, and I'm so very nauseous that I've been dry heaving this morning. I have a low-grade fever, which is normal after surgery, but I still feel totally wiped out by it.

Yay SuberFab!! So happy to hear you're ok. I've had surgery quite a few times and those first hours after are pretty rough. I'm sure after another day you'll be feeling do much better. I hope your friend is doing better.

Keeps us posted on your progress. I'm so happy for you that this part is over and the good stuff is still to come! Watch that fever and get lots of rest!! YOU DID IT!!!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
