If you don't cope with pain very well tell your Dr they will get you meds to help you cope. I am sure no one wants you to suffer . Just remember to take them When I had surgery in the past I was so sleepy I went to bed and when I woke up the meds from the surgery had worn off and my body reminded me very quickly that I had just had surgery I know you will do extremely well nothing to worry about your just take a nap wake up and it's done. good Luck

Thanks I have it on my list. ???Š

My date is July 9th. I start my liquid diet tomorrow. I'm excited about this journey. Afraid of the pain... No pain no gain!

I'm the day after you! Keep on touch!! Fortunately I dont have to do all liquids. Just for two meals.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
