Just had my sleeve surgery today,



Recommended Posts

Just had my Sleeve surgery today, got there at 7:10 am and was on the way home 11.30.

I did not or have not had any nausea at all. my chest hurts,

the walking every hour is tough , because i want to sleep.

nothing to eat for two full days now, will try a Protein Shakes tomorrow, they wanted me to do liquids today.

doing OK, but on the way home noticed all the fast food restaurants. and when i got home, everyone was eating in front of me, and there were some nice looking muffins on the table.

I'm working on not letting that bother me, but I'm still not hungry ,

time to take some drugs and get some sleep.

It amazes me how quickly some of you sleeve folks go home. I didn't even go home that fast after my gallbladder removal, which barely hurt at all post-op.

I wish I could’ve gone home same day. I was ready but they said I would have to stay two nights and I only stayed one.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
