Just had my surgery on July 25. Can't believe how well it went. After surgery I was just extremely tired, was very nauseous the next morning but with meds it went away. Up walking day 1, stayed in hospital 2 nights and went home Wednesday 27. Am feeling really good, being careful not to overdo things. Needed a nap after a shower! Lol. Can't believe that there was no pain after, just minor discomfort. Now let the losing begin!

Hooray for you!!!! Glad to hear things are going so well. Just remember once you get home from the hospital the most important thing you can do for yourself is stay hydrated. It is then that so many don't realize how important those liquids are to how they make you feel.

Sip sip sip even if it means holding that darn cup in your hands constantly. If you sip, you don't become nauseous, dizzy and weak. It also helps flush all the toxins from surgery.

Walk walk walk - this helps get rid of that terrible gas used during surgery and that gas really is the cause of most everyone's discomfort. The more you walk, the faster it leaves your body

I really hope you have a smooth recovery and are well on your way to better health. Now comes the exciting part! A whole new life for you!

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