Thanks! Yes I walked a lot while in the hospital. Got released about 11 today! I'm doing ok but my stomach muscles are SO sore! Gas is better and at least I am not dry heaving like before! Thank goodness!!!

The day of surgery and yesterday I was really regretting getting it done! But now I'm starting to be ok with it! Anyone else have those feeling of regret??

Kealot,

Don't be discouraged...I understand your feelings. I too heaved a lot except mine was not dry...enough said?! However, I did get past those bad days and moving forward to brighter ones. Still sore also. It will take time. Take care of your new tummy. In a short time from now...you will have no regrets! Hang in there!

I was sleeved on 8/11 and had terrible nausea until yesterday when I came home from the hospital. I definitely was regretting it at the time but when I felt better, although still very sore, I still feel like I made the right decision.

Can I ask how you are doing? Were you happy with Dr S? I have an appt to meet him 6/23. How long was the process for you as far and getting to the surgery? Thanks!

Yes I really like Dr. S and the staff. My first appointment was on 6/25 and had surgery scheduled for 8/12 that same day. They wanted to schedule on 7/14 but I already had plans to be out of town. Process was very easy. I had an appointment with a dietician, psychologist and an egd and that was it. It was the BEST decision I ever made. I am doing great!!!

Do you live in Houston or surrounding area?
