I also experienced it! But then I needed a lot of naps during the day... I’m 6 weeks out and that doesn’t really happen anymore.

Its yogurt with gluten free granola mix on top (bakery on main, kind and dark chocolate chips)

Do you mind sharing the recipe for the snack on top? It looks good.

It is temporary🎇 it was for me, I was in very substantial pain for 2 solid weeks post op. Then the pain disappeared like nothing. I felt completely normal again like i never had surgery at 2-3 months post op. That being said never hesitate to bug your team if you feel worse instead of better with each passing day. Advocate for what you need. Take it easy, heal, be kind and patient with yourself & you will do great 👑

I was sleeved on Feb 26. I came home from the hospital March 1. I have a drain in that isn't scheduled to come out until March 20. My incision sites are itching like crazy. I called the office and they told me to take benadryl. I am taking my Vitamins and drinking my Protein Drinks. My energy is extremely low. I realize that I am only a week out from surgery but I'm starting to get frustrated. How long did it take before you guys started to get energy and or feeling better?

What an inspiration! Thank you so much for posting. I just got sleeved one week ago and I'm frustrated (lack of energy pain) I know this is all temporary.

Hi Everyone. Sleeved 2/25. So far so good. Pain is easing up. No problem with drinking my fluids so far. Stomach let's me know when to stop. Getting 30gm of Protein in so far with shakes. Trying yogurt later with a little protein power, fingers crossed. Everyone sounds like they are finding what they need to be doing for themselves which is fantastic since it is all about us working together doing what we need to do. I seem to be the only one on here with a heart issue which requires a blood thinner. As a result I'm having tarry stools. I have a call out to my doctor. Also have blood work scheduled for tomorrow. At best I hoping to stop one of the thinners but have a sick feeling I might have to go back into the hospital. Not letting this get the best of me. I can continue with progress. Reading everyone's post has been so uplifting. Sorry took me so long to get caught up and post. I' be been walking in the house and the gas is improving. Was constipated took some mom and that resolved it. Miralax, and Smooth Move tea had been suggested on other boards. Trying them next. I have to check my weight every day for Water retention. I 'm good as long as the numbers don't go up. Bonus when they go down. I'd been at a stall for over a year and up till surgery was going to cardiac rehab gym 3x a week for cardio and strength training. Had a good amount of non weight success dropping almost 2 pant sizes. Didn't mean to carry on so long, just wanted to catch you all up.

I got sleeved 2/26. Today is my first day home from the hospital.
