Meet with my surgeon for the last time today! 6 days to go... I am so excited! For those of you that have already been sleeved is there anything that I need to make sure to take to the hospital with me that will help.

make sure to take a pillow for ride home to put beteeen your belly and seatbelt. Mine was a day surgery process so I went home that afternoon. Brought my cpap in the event I stayed over. Gas pains was the main thing but they kept telling me to burp while I was walking to help get the air out. Congrats and good luck!

Omgoodness, you was able to go home the same day. I have a 2 night stay, due to the 1 1/2 drive home.

You'll knock it out. I had about 45 minute ride home. Might also want to take nausea meds before ride home. Just because of the pain meds in your system might make the ride home easier.

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

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
