Sleeve is done as of noon today
Hey everbody. Wanted to check in for those that are getting close to their date. My sleeve is done and I have been walking a ton. When I first woke up the breathing was a little tougher because of the leftover gas still in the system. I've walked 6 times already, taken a couple meds for the gas, and the pain is virtually gone. The incisions are tiny and barely even hurt at all. Honestly, my back is what is most sore from being on the super high-end mattresses at the hospital. When I'm walking there is almost no discomfort at all.
Good luck everyone,
Jeremy

You're right, it's special here. When I don't check in often, I find my resolve tends to go down and my weight tends to go up. You'll find lots of good advice and tough love here when you need it. Glad your surgery went well.
