today is the day before the surgery. I have decided after reading everyone else's post I would post my own. I waited until almost the day of the surgery so people could know my experience of recovery. I had the gastric sleeve 2 years ago and lost 110 lbs. I workout on a regular basis and eat healthy. I have completely changed my lifestyle, but like many on here I cannot get rid of this belly!! I'm pretty nervous about tomorrow, but I have faith everything will turn out ok. I have read way more positive stories on here then negative ones so that gives me hope. I will keep everyone updated so give hope to those that are going to go though it too. Keep me in your prayers.

Surgery went well just really tired. My boobs hurt, but my doctor put in a pain pump like thing that doesn't corn out releases over 72 hours. Just worried about blood clots. I'm a worry wart like no kne I've ever met! Pain pills are good dont have any pain really as long as I have my pain pills. In the office before they sent me home I was having pain, but once the pills kicked in I was good. I have two drains in and they kinda interesting. I have only been home for a little less then two hours so just sitting here relaxing. Thank goodness for my moms she is a big help.

It's the 2nd day I think and it hurts, but it's not too bad. I have a low grade fever which my doctor says is from the Anastasia and just need to keep breathing deep. Toilet riser is a must for anyone going to do this. I couldn't even imagine not having one. I can walk around more today and my drain colors are turning clear. I do have a constant headache. I think it's from my neck and back pain those suck! Oh and the butt pain from sitting is not that nice either. Does anyone know when the boobs start to drop? My meds are still my best friend and make me sleep though the day. When you do this make sure you have someone who is willing to help for reals. I cannot do anything for myself and my mom is a life saver. All in all today is a good day. I get to see the doctor tomorrow and maybe get a drain out. They don't bother me too much though.
