    My sleeve surgery was April 11. So glad I had it done. Just dealing with low energy but each day gets better.

    Good luck today on your surgery. You are probably already in the operating room or are done. But I hope all goes well. Would love to hear all about it.

    Your welcome It is a good feeling when you get full before you finish you allotted amount before surgery. It's funny when your just getting started you think theres no way I can do this without starving yourself,lol. Its amazing when you have the will to conquer something how your body will adjust. Regarding the pain, it wasn't that bad. I thought it would be a lot worse. I only used pain meds 2-3x. first 2-3 days then I just took toradol & a G.I med for the inflammation. Walking and GasX strips really help reduce pain. Hopefully you'll have the same experience. It was such a good feeling when I had the surgery behind me. Sounds like your doing good. Please let us know how everything goes.
