Correction....I thought I did not sleep.< /p>

Hello. I was sleeved 6/17. I'm 43 and low bmi too

SW 190 and current weight 165. I'm thrilled with my decision. It was very personal and my family is super supportive

I chose to have my husband stay until I got to my room and then I told him to leave and if to work and pick me up the next afternoon.

Everything went fine and in fact I was not in any pain in the hospital, great meds, and I made the surgeons nurse read me the notes from the procedure because I did not think he did it. Haha.

I was able to start liquids the morning after with no problems. I took my meds that morning, swallowed the pills no issue and I was speed walking around the floor I was on.

Second night was the hardest at home when I had to get out of bed. That was painful. I took my pain meds a few days and have been doing well.

I did have a long stall for about 20 days but I knew it was coming. I'm also glad it's been slow because for those many I didn't tell, the change is gradual and I just attribute it to healthy changes.

Good luck on your journey. We are all looking forward to the best days to come.
