Had surgery Wednesday, July 25 and sore like hell today. It hurt when I take deep breath and and some spasms is this normal. Feel my inside gurgling too. When does this soreness subside. Doing good with Water, had a little broth yesterday and.was fine too. So today just not a happy camper my regrets of what the hell did I do are here.

Best thing to do... find something to occupy your time with, to distract you from the doubt/regret. Everyone heals at different rates, but just remember that everyone heals. The pain and issues you are feeling right now *WILL* go away. Yes it's tough, but it's very much worth it. Stay strong!

First 3 days are the days of regret after that it gets way better, it’s the best decision I have made and thinking back my only issue is why I didn’t do it sooner.

My advice start walking and don’t stop you’ll feel much better, And as soon as you are clear to start the gym 2 weeks from now for cardio do it

I had my surgery Monday and the regrets happened right away. i totally get it. For me, it was thinking what did I just do to my body, the pain was intolerable. Only on day 3 out (yesterday) did I start to feel better and move around a lot more. Today, day 4 out of surgery I am doing about 3700 steps a day, pain is much better, consuming my liquids and clear foods. Stay strong and move and get those fluids in you.

I was in considerable pain for 3 weeks then nothing. It gets better. Walk, use that stupid spiro-whatever-breathing-meter, and take whatever pain meds you need.

Safe Journey!

@newmeinfla GIRL, you got this! Had my sleeve revision on the 25th. Can't stress enough to walk! That gets the gas/air bubbles out. Do not lay down after drinking...that will only make it worse and use medication when you need to! It's a rough uphill but just follow your new routine and you'll feel a bit better everyday! Rooting for you!

Same here sleeve in the 25th...the gurgling is the worst part. Praying that ends soon. Today is the first day that I have even been close to reaching my Fluid goal.

It's a process and everyone is different
I'm 5 months post and 50 pounds down
I still get the gurgling stomach. I keep Tums on my car, purse, and beside my bed. Take it slowly, don't worry about heavy exercise right now. Concentrate on learning your new eating habits. Oh yeah I still have slight discomfort for the surgery sites
Hang in there and take the pressure off of yourself

Just wondering how you’re doing now that some time has passed?
