I'm sleeved!

I was sleeved early Tuesday morning and was released from the hospital this afternoon. Everything is going really well so far and I'm so happy to finally join the loser's bench! Quick question: is the pressure I sometimes feel mid-chest just gas pain? My surgeon said if I drink too quickly I'll get a full/pressure feeling in that area, but it's been occurring at random times and tends to feel better when I walk around. Sometimes I do feel it while sipping however. Thoughts?

Normal. I has a cramping sensation that felt like my stomach was twisting just a little. It was less and less over time...I just realized the other day that I don't know when that stopped. But other than feeling full sooner I pretty much feel normal digestive speaking. I feel much better than normal with all this weight loss
