Bariatric surgery happened last week!

I’m losing weight super fast but it’s harder to heal from than I expected.

My surgery went “beautifully “ per my surgeon. I ended up with high blood pressure and high blood sugar since I couldn’t take my meds the day of surgery and I was given a steroid shot. My blood sugar was in the 200’s and the steroid shot kicked my butt however once it got out of my system my blood sugars were awesome and my insulin use is less than half of what it was!

I only boils insulin if I eat more than 10 grams of carbohydrates now.

My abdomen looks misshapen but it’s because of internal sutures and it will go away. I have staples covered in tagaderm because it prevents infection to give me the best chance at healing. My staples come out on the 3rd. I have 6 incisions so one incision is not in the pic.

Some people like a binder. I am not one of those people. I want my body to swell and do what it needs to do to heal.

I can have about 4 ounces of food before I feel sick from eating.

I’m doing peanut butter and bone broth. I have tried other things but the pressure of digestion doesn’t feel awesome. It’s dull achy and why cause discomfort when I already can get what I need from what I’m already doing? I get fluids and protein from my bone broth so I can meat my daily protein goals.

My brain says eat nachos but my GI system won’t let me granted I haven’t even tried because it’s too soon.

I won’t eat more than 4 ounces or half a cup in one sitting. I am particularly about that because I don’t want to stretch out my stomach.

Pancreas transplant here I come!

Post-operation Gastric Sleeve

I had my gastric sleeve procedure on Thursday. It was out-patient so I went home just a couple of hours after the surgery was completed. Because ofnthe anesthesia still going through, I was able to walk around with ease and minimal pain.

Today was the first day in which all the anesthesia has depleted from my system and I am FEELING it. It feels like something is putting pressure behind my bellybutton incision sight and it's cumbersome try to get out of the super high bed I have. I've been trying to burp and pass gas all day...I have knly been able to burp and they are not as satisfying as I would hope to help clear any excess gas.

I'm going into Day 3 and from what I've heard this is the roughest period.

My fat 119.9 kilogram ass had bariatric surgery this morning. I am over the Moon, my dudes. Never have I ever been so overjoyed because of a fucking sleeve.

My starting. September 2019.

Being morbidly obese (332lbs on a 5′8.5 frame) was life crushing. After a breakup with a boyfriend of 4 years, a history of eating disorders and other mental illnesses and trying to manage my full time job, college schedule and the rest of my adulting responsibilities, I did not care to continue most days. But I’ve come farther and I want to post my journey.
