Sleeve surgery on 2-3 home from the hospital and doing great.  I had a really bad time with nausea for about 5 hours after surgery, but never got sick.  And it hasn't bothered me any more.  Passed the leak test Sat. morning and started on clear liquids for 7 days.  Came home about 3:30 Saturday afternoon and slept all evening with pain meds.  Really sore but doing great!

Welcome home to you and other new-sleevees!  Congratulations. 

The soreness will ease each day.  You're on your way!

Congrats!! Glad you are home and well! I too was nauseated but I did throw up for several hours after surgery. Was miserable, cut back on narcotics, upped the anti-nausea and fixed it right up.

I had mine on the 4th and am comfortably in my hotel bed looking at before/after pics online and sipping my crystal light. I am learning how to drink without gulping, harder than I thought it'd be but i want to avoid the chest tightness I get when I swallow too much at once. I fly home tomorrow and start my NEW LIFE!

If I can make it through these first 7 days I know I'll be fine. Can't wait to start shrinking with ya!
