Sleeved on 4/14/14!!

Well I made it to the other side!! I must say the worst part was the gas and the biggest incision site. Other than that I've been lucky so far. Things are far less dramatic than I expected (knock on wood they stay that way)! I've been taking pain meds as needed and walking a ton around the house. Liquids have been a little tough but I'm just on day 2 at home so I won't beat myself up over that. So to those who are up soon- you got this!!

Keep us posted on your experiences. I've got two more weeks until my surgery. 

Congrats! Good luck in your journey. Welcome to the loser's bench!

Congrats! I was sleeved the 9th. I could barely get fluids down until about day 6. Then it started getting easier. Keep sipping and walking!

Congrats and good luck!! 

Thanks for all the well wishes! Walk and sip...walk and sip:)

One week post op, 5.75 miles yesterday and 4 miles today. Down 20 lbs since Saturday. Keep sipping and try to keep your proteins up!

Congrats to you! That's awesome on the walking! I'm working hard on protein- each liquid I put in my mouth has at least 15g protein- broths, teas from health wise, and oh yeah brand protein powder. Thanks for the inspiration!

Congrats and wishing you much success! Im up on April 28 - thanks for the encouraging words!

Yay, and congratulations!!! You go!
