It's just from the swelling most likely.... How much Water are you drinking? And how long of a walk so you take? I walk at least 20 min or more and keep my heart rate between 123-141

Sktatey, hang in there..the weight will come off. If you continue to gain I would suggest contacting your doctor to check your band. Please keep me posted... I am on this journey with you

clear liquids for 48 hours after then full liquids until post op visit (day10) then doc will clear for solids. Kind of quicker than others. But first fill is in 3 weeks.

thats quick to your first fill. i have no idea when i will get mine, i only know im on fluids for four weeks.

I have to say... day five and i feel so good.My feet, which were so puffed and painful, are reduced in size and no pain anymore. plus my ankles are back to normal and my lower legs as well. i think that most of the 12 lbs i lost was fluid.. its just wonderful to be able to walk again without painful steps. i cant remember when this last happened .

i had bad gas pain last night, really bad. trapped in the collarbone and left neck. i got online and read up on it, and plain warm Water with fresh lemon juice sqeezed in will alleviate the pain. i had two small glasses over a couple of hours... had no pain through the night and none today either. so.. those of you who are still having issues, if you can get some fresh lemons... try it out for yourself.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
