So far I’ve lost 28lbs since 12-26-17. I had my gastric sleeve 1-3-18

I had 2 month blood work last month and had high liver enzymes. My doc said it was because of the rapid weight loss and the liver is working harder. Doc said it was normal at this stage.

I'm having that exact problem right now! Mine are extremely high. I had my gallbladder taken out Friday and the Doctor is going to redo my labs on the 13th. Please keep us updated on what you find out and I will as well.

Maybe your liver is still angry with you for putting him on that nasty liver shrinking liquid diet? Seriously I believe it will work out okay in the end.

Not a particular expert on the subject (who is on here?) but in addition to the generally poor liver condition that goes with severe obesity, the rapid weight loss and metabolizing all that fat that we are losing additionally taxes the liver, so that is likely the reason to see higher than normal numbers. Whether your numbers are higher than expected under these conditions is for your docs to say (though likely it will be a wait and see type of thing.)

Well yea. You didnt get enough calories to burn all that up. Go eat. I crash like this too if I dont get enough calories in.

Calm down! Relax! Half a cup of food every 3 hours no Water 15 minutes before eating until 30 minutes after. Meals should take about 15 minutes to eat to eat. Drink only water & a Protein Shake if you need to. No Snacks in between. Stay away from liquid calories. Eat only hearty non-liquid foods. Stick to the plan as best you can. Results have to come! Results at 6 months to a year are where you should see the most progress. A decision was made to do this so do your best to follow through with your commitment. You can’t give up early on & expect results down the road. It’ll just be another disappointment later. GET BACK ON HAT HORSE & RIDE ON! You’ve got this!

I took a nap and since I threw up the second time I’m feeling a little better. Hope it goes away and I can go to the gym lol

Did you just have surgery? If so, it's gas in your house rib cage. Walking will help.

Sorry to hear this! Call your surgeon, they should know. Like Fluffy said, it could be an intestinal bug but the nursing staff at your surgeon office may have some tips for fighting it!

Yikes! Sorry to hear this! I'd go to Clear Liquids until it clears. Maybe it's a bug? Maybe it's an angry pouch? Dunno. Sucks though. ((hugs))

So glad you posted this! I’m 8 days post-op and I’m feeling exactly the same way! I’ve always been one to feel more cold anyways so I thought it was just me but since the surgery, it’s been a little worse. I’ve been wearing thick pjs to bed and an extra blanket. Has slightly gotten better but man, I didn’t know it was gonna be like this!

I'm like the Witch,in the Wizard of Oz, only instead of I'm melting its I'm freezing.

Same here...I was never cold before. Once the weight started dropping I feel exactly like you...too dang cold!! But, I'll take it anytime over being unhealthy and obese. It's a fair trade off.

I was cleared to exercise at 6 weeks and started a Bariatric wellness program at a gym. I spoke with the office and don’t have any restrictions but when I asked about skiing she said to be careful. Six weeks is just a number and I need to listen to my body. She didn’t say no but a little vague. I didn’t ski that weekend but now I’m a little nervous doing crunches at the gym or too hard a workout. I feel good and doesn’t even feel like I had surgery. Curious how other people started working out and did you have any restrictions. I’m 7 weeks now. Thanks!

Same here! Eating used to be something i enjoyed. Now i just eat because i know i need it to be healthy. I am learning to eat to live not live to eat.

Is that your goal? Seems unlikely to me without some sort of extreme dehydration.

not really. I'd start to question your scale. Or did you had those days diarrhea and didn't rehydrate? Otherwise, no, it's not really something normal at all.
