Hi. I was sleeved yesterday and I am now home resting. I had a bit of a time waking up from anesthesia. No vomiting, but I had nausea. How are other new sleevers doing? I can't believe it!!

Hi.. I had mine yesterday too. Arrival to home in 20hrs. All going very well. All liquids stayed down. No sickness and pain ok. I'm planning for the pain over the next few days as the body adjusts from the surgery. But the various drugs will help with that

My liquids are lined up for variety.....

Milk ( some hot as latte)

Water

Lemon tea

Jasmine tea

Milk shakes

Soup

Bovril

All in all we have done a great thing. I Continue to be excited about the future.

Wow. You're home within 24 hours. My surgeon told me that I would spend 2-3 nights in hospital to make sure that I don't get dehydrated, make sure that my pain was controlled and my blood sugars were stable.

Mine was the 15th, 2 days ago. Been home from the hospital less than 24 hours. Gas pain is pretty bad, but is getting better - I'm going to leave a mark in my upstairs carpet pacing it so much to break up the gas!!

Outside of that, I'm only one pound down from morning of surgery. Thought it'd be faster, but we'll see how the week goes.

Best of luck to everyone!! Wishing a pain free recovery to all ????????

Just got sleeved on Wednesday sept 14. Been home two nights. Spent one night in the hospital. I have had a HORRIBLE headache ever since I got home. Been making sure I'm drinking 4 oz of liquid every hour. I'm having a hard time telling what my stomach will hold. Hopefully everyday will get better. We did it!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
