vleesleeved 35 Posted July 19, 2016 Officially sleeved! Surgery went amazing. I am happy to report that I have ZERO pain/soreness. I feel very lucky! I've been able to go on long walks in the hospital and I feel excellent. I hope everyone else who had surgery today is having the same luck!

bookfool 1 Posted July 20, 2016 I was sleeved on the 18th as well. I've had moderate pain, but have been walking and moving around. One incision spot hurts worse than the other 5 combined. Doc says that's because that's how they took the excess stomach out, and that I have stitches in that muscle. I've had trouble urinating since the surgery, so they re-catheterized me. That is causing more discomfort than anything else. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vleesleeved 35 Posted July 20, 2016 I came home yesterday and my pain was through the roof, probably because I had a single incision through my belly button, so all the pain was focused in one area. This morning I am feeling a bit better. I'm looking forward to the day I wake up with no pain so that I can really start to appreciate and enjoy my new stomach Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vleesleeved 35 Posted July 23, 2016 Update: It's been 5 days since my surgery and I am actually feeling really good! The head hunger I struggle with at times, but I am definitely battling through it. My weight on the day of surgery was 229.8 and this morning I decided to weigh myself and I am 221. Pretty happy with those results in only 5 days - thank you sleeve!!!
