I was sleeved at 10 am today. I've been on morphine and anti nausea meds throughout the day. I'm mostly just sore at this point. I've been walking around in the hospital and have no problems with it. The worst part was obviously in recovery. My gas pain has been minimal I'm guessing due to my walking.

Congrats to my other July 14th sleevers! Make sure to get some walking in there!

I had mine done on Monday as well. I did pretty well in the hospital but now that I'm home I am much more sore. Perhaps I'm not walking as much without the long hallways and more comfortable seating or maybe the pain Meds at home aren't as good. How are you doing on liquids. I'm struggling quite a bit. Lots of spasms but I just keep sipping. I'm not hungry at all but I haven't felt full necessarily either. Do you?

I was sleeved Monday. I did well with the walking at the hospital. I'm home now, today has been real sore. The main incision burns and hurts more than the others. I feel generally tired. I have slowly sipped Water all day. Still don't think I've gotten enough in, never felt full and not specifically hungry. I also have a headache. Hope tomorrow is better.

I got sleeved on Monday, too. A little bit sore on one side - it feels like a pulled muscled. I have menstrual cramps worse than this on a monthly basis, so this is no biggie. I have walked around the block several times. Gas pain is minimal, Fluid intake is very good. Probably not 64 oz, but their goal for me is 20-30 oz, and I know I've had more than that.

I haven't been hungry, but did have some minor head-hunger here and there. It was very manageable. The only bad things are some occasional nausea and sensitivity to certain smells. I can't stand our hand soap anymore! lol

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
