Hi I’m a sleeve➡️bypass I’m almost 3 weeks out, I wasn’t the model patient but I have to say 💯 that this surgery was so much easier than the first, I have tolerated everything so far very well (almost too well it worried me bc I had almost no constriction) feeling hopeful! My post-op appointment is on 11/9/21. The weight loss has
Been much slower then when I had the sleeve, but again, feeling hopeful! Has anyone heard that with this conversation, you lose weight much slower, then it all falls off? Thank you in advance!

I'm 34 about 6 weeks pregnant, 3 months po, i had the sleeve and I also have two blood clotting disorders to deal with.. So yes I'm fed high risk.. I just can't wait to be in my safe place in my pregnancy!! Hope all is well!!

Hello all, I was 3 months po on March 9th and today I found out I was pregnant!! I'm still trying to wrap my brain around all this.. How's everyone making out with their pregnancies so far?

So I found out today that I'm pregnant, I'm so scared!! My doctor told me I'd be more fertile but I never thought.. Has anybody else have this happen to them?!? Thank you in advance!!

I take my Vitamins everyday, get enough Protein, no way could I even get close to 1200 calories... 900 the most, I drink all day long.. Unjust got my blood done yesterday and see my surgeon on Monday.. Hope all is well!! Thank you all

Sleeved on dec. 9th, down 54 lbs.. But have been at a stall for a few weeks now.. Everyone is diff like your doc days

Hello all, I've had two suggests in the past 2-3 months, my incision pain is sooo bad, and I am on my feet all day long at work, my surgeon wants me to go to a pain specialist, but am scared of getting hooked on pills.. Anybody else out there going through this?!? Thank you in advance!!

Hello all I haven't been on here in awhile, but I'm 3?months out and am still exhausted, I'm a hairdresser so its a tough, physical job and by the end of the day I'm dead tired, does it get better ?!? Thank you in advance!!

Has anyone had to have gallbladder surgery after already having surgery for your sleeve? My surgeons said it was too risky doing them at the same time, so on 1/19/15 I go in the hospital for gallbladder surgery and if so how did you feel after? (Tmi) did you have diarrhea, nausea, ect.. After you recovered? Thank you in advance!!

@@bewell I don't mean to scare you, maybe I shouldn't have posted this lol you'll be fine, it's just a big life changing moment! But everyday gets better and better!! I hope all goes well with your surgery!! Kick some butt!!!

@@pinkbunies thank you for your support, I went and got a ct scan today and a blood test all came back alright but my ct scan shows the pain I'm having is from gallstones, so I find out tomorrow if I'm gonna have my gallbladder out this coming Monday, I'm just happy they'll be an end to the pain.. And that my levels are all good I can't wait to look back on all this and laugh..

It definitely takes some time to get back to "normal" as far as emotions and energy level for sure. Take the time you need and don't undervalue self-care! Good luck!

Well this coming week will be my 6th week out of work, today my energy level is at an all time low, my stomach hurts, (tmi) diarrhea, Migraine, and lost 11lbs in 2 days... I spoke to my surgeon and he's sending me to the ER for tests, hope all goes well thank you all for your support!

Take it slow it takes me over an hour to get a Protein drink down and you have to find one that you can tolerate. Praying for you I just had mine done 12/29 and so far all has gone well.

Hello all! Well I had my sleeve done 12/9/14, I went back to work 1/5/15 and went to my surgeon yesterday 1/7/15, he to me out of work again. I'll be reevaluated on Tuesday. The reason he took me off of work is Bc 1)I'm a hairdresser at a really, really busy salon, 2) I'm extremely exhausted. I've been taking my Vitamins and have been getting B12 shots ect. My problem is I can't get any Protein down, maybe 1/2 of a Protein Shake. My Fluid in take is very little. And food is very little as well, so I have no fuel for my body. I'm scared Bc I feel like I let my boss down and the other stylist, they have to pick up my clients. So when I walked into my surgeons office he said well "you have the bariatric Blues" which I totally do! Sometimes I regret having this procedure done. My weight loss has been slow, 22lbs since surgery and 32 all together. Plus I went in monday for and apt and the scale said I gain 2 lbs.. I was hysterical.. Hoping this all gets better!! I just keep telling myself it'll all be worth it in the end thanks for letting me vent! I'm going to a support group tonight, I think that'll help!

@@Beni I had WLS 3 weeks ago yesterday, and last night was the first night I actually got a good nights sleep (thank god) I feel a bit better, I don't know if it's from the B12 shot or if I was just soo tired and run down that my body actually let me sleep.. I go back to work this coming Tuesday .. So scared!!

Hello all, I'm writing to you as I just crawled into bed at 4pm lol I have one week to go until I have to go back to work and I am so anxious about it. I can't seem to stay up past 8-9 pm I try my hardest but it never happens. I got a b-12 shot today that's supposed to help but like I said I just crawled into bed.. I sometimes have to work nights and I don't know how I'm going to pull this off?? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Oh and I've been getting in my Protein, taking my Vitamins, drink my fluids..

Lol thank you! I made a "7" layer bean dip but with only 5 layers salsa, guacamole, refried Beans , and sour cream.. Heavenly on the taste buds.. I'm just not sure I can handle meat yet, just tried mashed potatoes for the first time yesterday also heaven!!

Hello all! I gave the recipe for shelly's baked ricotta for Christmas.. Other than that I have no idea what to make to feel like part of the party?? Any and all suggestions are appreciated! Thank you, Kym

All sounds good but the ground beef might be too soon..

I took the strips, you won't want to be swallowing anything you don't absolutely have to.. Good luck!

I was sleeved on 12/9 and have been out of work since 12/5 due to have to get a filter in, I'm a hairdresser at a very, very busy salon and I go back to work on 1/5

Congrats on being sleeved!! I made cream of broccoli Soup, and butternut squash soup.. Was sleeved dec.9th and am still working on them!! But have lost 25lbs so far..

It's a very small amount of cheese.. You'll have tiny bits, chew them thoroughly and you should be fine, I just made one tonight and it was great and I feel great!! So good to have another option besides Soup and such! But if your concerned pls ask your doctor first! Enjoy!!
