It has been 3 days since surgery. The only issue I have is gas pains, which is normal. Trying to get all the Fluid in is work. I love sugar free popcycles. Good luck for those getting ready for their surgery.

I got home last night. Was sleeved Wed the 14th. Aside from the pain on my right side, the only difficult part is forcing the Water down. I only got about 8 oz of water in. But I had 3 sugar free Popsicles and 8 oz of chicken broth. The broth made me feel super full though. I'm really looking forward to feeling better soon!!!

I was sleeved on the 14. The first few days were hard to get liquids in, today has been a bit easier.

I was also sleeved on the 14th I'm extremely thirsty so I think last night I drank too much Water leaving me with extreme pains rising in the sleep ... I've had so much heartburn ... At least that's what I think it is ... As soon as I start walking it feels better .... I'm only sleeping 2 to 4 hours max

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
