how much weight did you lose between the surgery and your first followup 2 weeks later with your doctor...i lost 18 pounds...

obviously the more overweight you are the more weight you will lose ...after surgery

i was and still in considerable pain following surgery it's not as bad as it was a week ago but it is still there and i am 2 weeks post op....

gas pain was odd but it will pass no pin intended blood clots keep walking everyday many times a day.. try and drink as much as you can..each of us have to go through this experience...

it's a myth that hunger feeling go away after sleeve surgery..i am a example myself..

my days of feeling cold post surgery is over.. now it's in the opposite direction lol..

when did you experience your first dumping episode following your surgery..i had mine today drinking sweetened gatorade i ran out of the zero kind....

today is the first day i am not feeling as cold as i have been since the surgery 12 days.. later...

Same here... Surgery on Tuesday and I’m a ball of anxiety! I just keep thinking about how awesome things will be afterwards... Thinking about starting to pack stuff for the hospital to relax my nerves things won't be awesome after surgery prepare for thirst a lot of pain no bowel movements feeling cold.. but eventually things will turn...

anyone have a blanket i can borrow i have felt so cold after the surgery...

when did your severely bruised around and under belly button from the operation...finally heal after the surgery how many days?

i am almost similar to you but 10 days out i still feel stomach pain i can't stand the foods i am eating uh ....

i for awhile have needed naproxen for pain when i need it once in a while sometimes 1 or 2 pills a week.. now after having the surgery that option is off the table.. i don't if i need it have to depend on narcotic pain killers for chronic pain...

in the literature they give you after surgery they talk about drinking 4 ounce of protein shake made up of powder or.. or already in a bottle is that how much at one time you are supposed to have? i have been trying to sip all 11 fluid ounces within 30 minutes..and yes they all taste like crap after the surgery,,,

well you should be concerned i know everyone is different but i have been in tremendous pain since my surgery even with pain meds...it makes everyday a day not to look forward to...

after gastric sleeve i have felt cold after surgery even when taking a warm shower...is this a common occurence...

i think they re worried about blood clots after surgery so that is why they tell you walk around..and also about post surgical pain.. it can help to walk around...

same thing happened to me pain on the right side fo stomach.. hurts the most when getting up or sitting down...

i bought myself a adjustable bed should arrive next week...

i was under impression that those hunger pains many people always have would go away for a short time following gastric sleeve..it lasted a day and since i was not eating much in the hospital i have nothing but non stop hunger pains...

it was a gastric sleeve...

today was my 3 full day post op...

what is up with the insane amount of gas you have following the surgery? before the surgery i was a heavy soda drinker.. and i never had the amount of gas and belching before the surgery as i do now....

do you all wish you had a hospital bed at home following the surgery?

after surgery i really could not eat much.. you could be feeling weak from lack of calories or you blood sugar going to a level your not use to...
