I have only lost 40lbs. I try not to get discouraged, I go to the gym and to the park to work out. Then there’s others that say they never stepped a foot in the gym. I still have 42 pounds to lose to be at my goal weight. Hope everyone else is doing good.

Hello everyone I have a question, Am I the only one that is fighting the urge to want to eat food. I know it’s only a mind thing, but that’s what I am going thru right now. No pain no issues only dealing with the thought of food mentally.

I thought about food a lot too. It’s not worth it though. You can seriously hurt yourself. I had extra crafts and stuff to distract myself for the first few weeks because I knew it would be difficult if I didn’t stay busy. That helped me a lot. I also watched Netflix to avoid the food commercials. Although they are always eating on tv as well so I mostly did crafts.

Best to follow your doctor’s advice, not a patient on this app. They told me use of straws can tear your staples and cause bleeding.

Yes that is about right for ketosis. your carb intake is low, as well as fat. Only takes about 3 days to get into ketosis.

I think you're excreting the anaesthesia?

I just got home yesterday. So today I am trying to take sips. Had a few sips of protein shake, 3 tablespoons of sugar free jello, hot chicken noddle soup liquid, sugar free popsicle and got my liquid multivitamin down but not my calcium and b12 I have to crush them up or chew them. Idk I am trying to get use to this new stomach. I can tell when I have took too many sips as I start to feel funny. I have a lot more liquids I need to get down.

I sleep on my back and side with no pain. I slept on my stomach before the surgery but I don’t think trying that is a good idea. I am 3days post op I think and I am fine just still dealing with gas and getting all my fluids down mostly the 2/3 sips and feeling funny. I was told in the hospital to set my alarm every 15 mins so I have been trying to do that. I hope everyone has a speedy recovery. And I am down 13lbs from the start of pre op diet. I see other has drop more but I am not letting it bother me. Just trusting the process. My biggest issue I WANT FOOD. I think I am handling it ok.

I’m 4 days post op. I can’t wait to have real good. I don’t want to see another cup of freaking broth!

MsKayla that’s exactly how I felt like nothing really happened. I’m 12 days out now and I don’t have anything going on. I think my stomach looks good too. Still a little bruising but not much. I had the micro gastric sleeve so incisions are minimal. I’ve been able to get my water in. I went way over on carbs yesterday ? but I’m making up for that today. So far just 2 protein shots. I still have another week abs a half on liquids

Thank you. I will be discharged soon and have a 45mins ride??‍♀️ So I hope it is not too bad.

Hello everyone, as I stated before I was scheduled for surgery today so I wanted to provide an update. I came in at 8:45am was scheduled to come a 9:30am did all my pre surgery stuff. Need to get 2 IVs nurse could only find one. The second one was place in while I was in surgery. I went to surgery around 11:50/12. When I came to it was almost 3pm. My stomach was kinda in pain but nothing extreme. I was giving a pain medicine n it was better. I kept falling asleep and waking up. After maybe 2 hours I came to my room and ask can I walk, I handsome doctor said sure. I walked a good distance with no assistance. I came back to my room and now laying down. I am so confused because it doesn’t feel like I just had surgery my stomach just feel weird not really pain more like discomfort. But for the most part everything went well. I don’t know how I am up like nthg happen.

Just make sure not to over-do it the first two days. Mine was like yours; didn't feel like much was done, but I found out jostling in the car really made me sore later. Walk when you can, but lay off car rides as much as possible for a few days! Lesson learned
