Nyelaah 77 Posted July 20, 2015 Hi everyone! Had my surgery July 17... Boy oh boy is it uncomfortable. I'm looking fed to feeling more normal :-( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rnsamantha 352 Posted July 20, 2015 The first 3 days were the hardest/most painful for me. It gets better each day. I had mine 6/25. Don't forget to take your MiraLAX/fiber supplement! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeeLove227 4 Posted July 20, 2015 I was sleeved July 14. It does get better with time. Listen to your body. I made the mistake of thinking everything was the same as before the surgery and took gulps and over drank. That was an uncomfortable miserable feeling. Take one day at a time it gets better.

Nyelaah 77 Posted July 20, 2015 Thank you all! Today I did #2 and having taken Fiber for Constipation yet. I am on Protein shake #2 now. Drinking it 2 ounces every 20 min. Haven't been able to drink more than 4 oz Water due to drinking shakes. Hopefully I get better with it. And yes these past few days are the worst. To top it off I got my menstrual same day I came back from hospital. Positive thoughts to everyone enduring this. It's so painful and uncomfortable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elleschaeffer 12 Posted July 21, 2015 Congratulations on starting your journey. So many people will tell you the first few days are the hardest and that was my experience too. I'm now 11 days post op and feel better than I have in years. Hang in there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
