I had multivitamin and calcium D3 patches. I put them on at night when I sleep and take off in morning but some nights I forget to put them on. Do you guys wear them during the day?

Hey Everyone, I’m 5 weeks post-op, down 35 pounds and feeling pretty good. I’m exercising regularly and cleared to eat all foods. My only problem is my blood pressure has spiked up. I never had high blood pressure before surgery and now it’s 150/99. My surgeons office said that wouldn’t have anything to do with surgery and I already made an appt with my primary for this evening. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this?

Averaging about 3 to 5 lbs a week

I took 1 week and was completely fine...

I’m 4 weeks post op and I have about 8 ounces of coffee a day.... my doc said as long as the coffee is not excessive it’s okay. No soda, don’t even miss it...

I’m 4 weeks post op and I gurgle every time I eat, it’s so annoying. My doctor told me it’s acid reflux. As far as the bowels, I’ve had the opposite issue.

I’m still having trouble with the 64 fluid ounces a day...I have a protein shake first thing in morning, a few hours later 1/2 or 3/4 of a Greek yogurt. A small lunch, snack, dinner and I finish my day with a sugar free pudding I’m in Philadelphia. I had my surgery 3/21 , I’m 4 weeks post op today, down about 33 pounds and experiencing alil stall currently.

Hey there! I’m about four weeks out and I feel pretty good. I’m currently on the soft foods but should graduate this week to all foods.... where are you located?

Hey All, I’m 15 days post-op, just moved to soft foods today and super excited. I have lost 20 lbs so far, I’m energized and feel fabulous. My only problem so far is every time I eat something other then yogurt or pudding, I have a lot of noise. Noise coming from my stomach and/or throat? It’s so embarrassing and I swear people can hear it but I just may be paranoid. Anyone else experiencing these noises? Please tell me it’s normal? Thanks in advance!

Yes me too.... hahaha!

I’m wondering if it ever stops... I’m so embarrassed of it! Or what it is exactly. Is it acid reflux? Or eating too fast? Or the wrong things....

Nikki and side eye... you gals are very close to my weight, goals and progress. I’m almost two weeks out, still on purée but ready to transition to soft foods..... I’m feeling great, energy wise and mentally. However every time I eat, it sounds like there’s an alien in my throat trying to escape.... I think I’m doing something wrong too. 17 pounds in two weeks is awesome though!

I weighed more in hospital too bc they pump you with all the fluids, then when I weighed in at my 7 day post up I had lost 8 pounds, my doctor said that was normal bc it was the fluids balancing out.

Hey all! I’m new here, 7 days post op from sleeve. I’m advanced today to the purée stage and I also am emotional and at time regretful so you are not alone at all. Your post helped me to realize ppl are feeling similar. I have cried every day since surgery but praying and keeping faith that it does get better. Hang in there!

I had surgery on March 21st, returned home on the 23rd. The only pain I’m experiencing is the biggest incision but I’m feeling a lot of sadness and anxiety. Anxiety that I’m not walking or breathing into the deep breath tool, and that I’m going to develop blood clots. I’m very tired, resting a lot, sleeping a lot. Is this normal 4 days out? I’m usually an on the run, never stop moving kinda gal and the laziness is getting to me I guess. Also crying a lot wondering if I made the right choice? I’m drinking as much as I can. Yesterday I got down 1 preimiere protein and about 30 additional ounces. Today I’m pushing for 64 but I’m weak. Any advice or help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks so much Katfight for your long detailed message. I really appreciate your help.

My paper says sugar free pudding so I would think that’s an option! I had my surgery the 21st, 4 days post op... I think it’s going to be a rough journey for the next few weeks. But hang in there!

Thanks logicwand! I appreciate your feed back. I’ve been up for most of the day now, I’ve been pushing myself to take walks to the corner and it has helped me a lot today!

Thanks everyone for your help. I really appreciate it!

I actual got up and did my hair, got dressed, took a walk up and down the street, went up and down a flight of steps. I think I shouldn’t have used the work weak, maybe just tired and depressed. I’m a 36 year old female, starting weight was 290 and this was my first ever surgery so I think I’m just bummed. I’m getting down my liquids today pretty well. It 2 o clock and I’ve gotten 2 protein shakes and about 30 oz of clear liquids so far

I have done wash, gotten a shower, cleaned a little but mainly I just wanna lay around bc I can’t do much else. I def don’t have energy to walk five miles.

Hi Ash I have the same surgery date, I’m 36 and In Philadelphia
