Had my sleeve surgery with the hernia repair about three weeks ago, and Im feeling good! I had to stay an extra day in the hospital because of excessive pain and my sugar was too low. The gas pains made me feel like I was dying, but I made it through! So far I am down 38lbs pre-op included! I am extremely happy with the results of the procedure! I can tolerate fish and mashed potatoes, and I am working in new things everyday! I know when I am full, but it kinda hurts when I feel hungry. I really don't have any scarring from the incisions! Yay! My biggest struggle is sipping drinks. I had to slow down tremendously on my liquid intake. I went into surgery on Monday morning, left the hospital Wednesday night, and went back to work Saturday morning. I work at starbucks so I took it slow, but I feel great now. I got clearance from my doctor to start back at the gym, so I went yesterday and did about 45 minutes on the treadmill, 15 minutes on the bike, then some arm strengthening machines. I stopped when my body started feeling a little weak. So far I haven't thrown up, but I have learned that there are some things I cant eat anymore, My stomach throws a fit if it doesn't like what I am putting in it!
