I had the VSG surgery yesterday Aug 30th, Everything went well, I woke up feeling pretty good except for the incisions. I've been sipping Water and eating small amounts of Jello. Every once in a while I have a little spasm in my stomach, and very minimal gas pains.

:D I so glad you doing well. My first couple of days after leaving the hospital were really rough. I was sipping to large amounts of my drinks, which caused me to throw up a lot. After my 5th day everything was so smooth, I felt like did I really get sleeved!

Good Luck

Thanks everyone! I've had a pretty good recovery, other than incision pain (which is getting handled by Tylenol) I admit that I didn't know what quite to expect, but I haven't really been nauseous at all, I do have meds if needed, not yet. But I do have a temp running about 99.7, it hasn't gotten any higher than that. Feeling pretty darn good. Today I did about 50 grams of Protein and close to 64oz of Water, ALL I do is sip sip sip! BEST OF LUCK to all of you on your journey!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
