  1. Hi everyone. I have lost 45 pounds in 8 weeks. I've been doing 2.5 miles per day on the treadmill with a slight incline. I have not been doing any other exercise. Last night and today my lower stomach has been hurting. Feels almost like sore muscles. It hurts to touch or move in certain positions. I've also had really bad headaches. Is this normal or should I contact my surgeon? Up until now I've been feeling great
  2. I also had my surgery on the 16th, I'm on liquids until the 30th
  3. I'm glad you are feeling pretty good.
  4. I was sleeved Thursday, 11/16. I came home Friday and I feel pretty good. I'm walking around the neighborhood a few times a day. My only problem is that when I drink anything it really burns my stomach. I hope this feeling goes away soon. I'm still on clear liquid until Tomorrow
  5. My surgery was 11/16 I was very nauseous after but didn't throw up. I slept most of the afternoon. I woke up at 2am and went for a lap around the ward. At 7am they took me for my leak test. Everything came out fine so I was sent home by noon. I'm not in a lot of pain However it is painful when I drink. I am on clear liquid until Tuesday when I can start adding protein. Broth and water go down pretty good but jello and popsicles burn my stomach. I've been pretty active today. Went for a little walk around the block, started a load of laundry and washed dishes. When hubby gets home, we will do two laps around the block.
  6. I'm starting to question if this is the right thing to do
  7. The doctor has not had any leaks. I am very healthy other than being overweight. I was not given a pre op diet plan. But am following one that I found on line. I guess I'm just stressing over the un known
  8. My gastric sleeve is in 10 days. I started stressing over the possibility of a leak. Has anyone here had a leak?
  9. My surgery date is November 16th. I am very nervous
