I'm so sorry you're going through this but maybe hang in there for a couple of days and see how it goes? From all that i've read it sounds like the first few days can be really tough. You'll drudge through this!

I'm 8 days out and am thankful I am doing well. I have to say the best thing I did was make myself walk A LOT. It's the only way to get the gas out and to be honest even though I had to make myself do it I really only felt good when I was walking. It will get better but the first week is rough. I am pretty much back to my normal self. My surgeon told me to walk walk walk and he was so happy, every time he visited me I was up and doing laps around the unit with my IV pole.

I am not sure how to tag the original person you responded to....

I'm 19wks out and don't have a single regret but I did have some rough Patches. Those first 48 hours in the hospital were miserable. I was in pain or high, I missed food and I instantly had regret but when I got home and started really healing I found each day got better. Now I would not change a thing. Those first months, are just that, a short blip of time. I'm now almost 5 months out. I can eat whatever I want, my sleeve is like steele but I never had a weak stomach before, albeit I don't just eat whatever. I've learned how to eat in public and found that I eat more normally now. I used to be so embarrassed when we would go out and I cleared my plate but all my girl friends had left overs. I'm just loving this new life.

Going out and eating as much as the people I'm with is something I soooo look forward to. I'd easily put away double what they ate, plus dessert.
