About smilius
- Sleeved or not sleeved:
- I have had a gastric sleeve.
- Biography:
- I am a wife and mother of 3. For the past 20+ years I have been on some type of diet, ranging from Jenny Craig to Weight Watchers to HCG and the others in between. I think all the money I spent dieting could have covered the sleeve surgery cost plus some. Anyway, I currently weigh the most I've ever weighed...267 lbs. As I mentioned, I have 3 kiddos. My oldest is almost 21, my second is 15 and my youngest is 11. I want to be healthy and active with my kids and (someday) my grandkids. I want to look good for my husband, although he never says anything about my weight. All in all, I just want to feel good about myself.

Hello, everyone! Today is day 6 post-op for me, and I'm really questioning my choice in doing the sleeve. I have to say this has been much harder than I expected. I've had a lot more pain than I expect and really just haven't felt very good at all. This is normal...right? I'm also tired all the time, but I'm assuming that is from being off the vitamins and the change in diet.The weight is coming off, and I'm happy about that. I just wish I was beginning to feel better. Any advice is welcome.

I just had my sleeve surgery on Thursday. I have to say the amount of pain I have took me by surprise. My vision is also really blurry. Can anyone tell me if this is normal? I appreciate any input I can get.
