OMg I am so happy to of found you guys! I was sleeved on the 9th and I also had a hernia repair! Drinking is a huge task! I can drink 8oz of Water then usually an ounce or 2 of broth! A popsicle and maybe a sip of some crystal lite! Pain meds and nausea meds er every 4 to 5 hours. I am wearing the binder and walking but I don’t think I I’ll get in close to what they want! My week follow up is the 17th! I am thirsty but it hurts so bad!

Hey Jody! I was able to have two “movements” today which gave me a bit of relief. But back to gas cramps every time I take a swallow. And the chicken broth I got is so gross!!! But I’m still pushing through. I walked a total of 8,223 steps (3.56 mi). I feel like today is a little better then yesterday. Just hope it continues to get better every day. My first post op appointment is on the 18th
