I noticed from the moment I woke up I felt better! So glad you are feeling better!!

I had those problems too and all are mostly resolved! I had gastric sleeve surgery on the 21st of May. Am down 25 lbs and no problems from the surgery! I feel great! 90 lbs to go!

I have my sleeve surgery tomorrow. I have been anxious awaiting the day. I was 255 and this morning weighed 245.4. Up and down my whole life. A bad marriage that lasted longer than it should have. Remarried just over a year and am so ready.

I was fine for 3 weeks after surgery. Had to seek a little relief myself! Lol. My husband goes for walks with me. Still need to get my energy back. Anesthesia whooped me! Almost 4 weeks out and down, and still going down!! Today is my first day back to work.

Step by step, small steps. I saw Dr. today and I have lost 18 lbs since surgery and 25 total lbs. lost. Small steps,

@@HopeandAgony listen to laguerr13 it is slow and steady after surgery. Discomfort from the gas, hospital. The gas took time to get out! Small steps, bites and sips! Dont rush it either of you. I am 42, 5'7. Everyone in my family on both sides heavy. My moM is 5'4 and 315. Aunts on other side heavy too. Pre surgery diet is a must follow. I want to chug ice cold water. Small swigs are sufficing for now. Wish I could hit the gym. Busy mom and wife, working ( back on Thursday ) I barely have time for myself.

Thanks @@VSGAnn2014 is nice to have someone to chat with who understands. I wish I had gotten out of bed more. The anesthesia makes me sick. Took me a week to stop feeling so bad. I am glad I did it and am very pleased with my results so far!!!

I still have the thirst! I am glad you are doing so well! The gas took 2 weeks to finally go! I carry drinks all the time. I was thirsty before, now since surgery more than ever! I stuck a jug of diet green tea in freezer to get it super cold! Then it was perfect and I drank 16 oz. through the next hour! Take your time!!!!

231.8. Retaining water. Dr. Told me take some over counter and see. @@laguerr13 hope you are okay! Water retention may be why I have been tired.

Small milestones, exactly. I am up this evening. Light cleaning and dinner. Sore, being careful as to my movements. How wonderful and proud you should be! I will keep you in my prayers on Wed. The worst part is the first 2-3 weeks after surgery. The soreness. Take your time!

232.4 this morning. Been taking it easy the last few days as I pulled a muscle on my left side. It started spasms where the sutures and glue and painful. I may go see Dr. tomorrow if it is still bothering me. Laying down stops the spasms. @@laguerr13 how are you doing?

You too!

@@laguerr13 that is great! I weigh myself again Thursday morning. No naps for the first time since surgery. I am running errands and doing light housework. Hubby and kids keep me going.

No hunger at all today. Drank my protein. I finally had 3 oz. Of tomato soup. Will have a bit more later.

Keep getting at least 60 g of protein a day. You will feel sluggish as your body is not getting what it used to. I have to nap everyday since surgery. Keep going!!!

Today not very hungry at all. No hunger pangs, but know I should eat. Had a strawberry muscle milk, a bit of tomato soup, an isopure and one egg white with a little cheddar.

I am glad! Still taking a nap for (2) hours each day. Eat a bit here and there. Belly a bit sore still but has only been 9 days since surgery. I am very happy I did this and am very happy My words are helping others! Thanks for following!

235 this morning. Walking and mainly drinking my protein. Eating cottage cheese, applesauce, turkey chili blended well, ff yogart etc. Going for my walks also.

Gone for another walk. A bit longer, a bit warmer today. Resting for a bit, then more to do.

237.4 this morning.

End of day, had my isopure, cream soups, pudding and yogurt. Having a bit of milk then to bed. Walked for 1/4 plus mile. Was sore on my left side. Did a bit of housework and no lifting. So ready for bed soon. Will weigh myself in the morning!

239.4 this morning. My heartburn has returned. Had a hard time sleeping last night. I see Dr. Friday. Started back on my nexium this morning.

I just weighed myself, 240.8. Still little tired.

My scale the morning before said I was 245.4. Will stick with that. You okay CKNM?
