3 days post op

So I had my sleeve done and now I'm 3 days post op and feeling relatively great. The first two days were hard but now I'm feeling a ok. I'm getting my fluids in and able to lay down and get up myself. The only thing that truly hurts is my neck from laying on my back at night - I'm a stomach sleeper.

Best of luck to you.  You have made a great choice.  Expect a stall at around 2-3 weeks, it is normal and then the pounds will drop off.  Welcome!
