Today was the day



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved this a.m. The gas pain is horrible! If it wasn't for that I would be feeling great! Someone please tell me it gets better tomorrow. I have walked and that felt great but I'm so tired and on lots of pain meds which doesn't seem to help a ton.

my only pain was from shoulder pain I had trouble breathing to deep because it hurt so much unfortunately pain meds wont help but a nurse told me that the best way to ease the pain is to lay flat on your back sounds incredibly simple but it actually works also use a heat pack it gives amazing relief

It gets better. WALK, WALK, WALK. Honestly, that's the best thing. I remember my second night after surgery I was so uncomfortable I walked laps between by kitchen and livingroom for 2 hours in the middle of the night. It helps so much!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
