I everyone I was banded on Wednesday July 18th, and I'm having difficulty feeling if I'm full from the sipping of liquid or just tight from surgery. How often should I be sipping? Every 5 min? 15? Thanks!

I was also banded on July 18th! I haven't been sipping much, just every so often. I do feel full, but my stomach does growl. When it growls, I sip a little more. Good luck to you!

Hi. I was banded in July 19. I am also sipping my liquids but I'm wondering if I'm getting enough. I don't feel hungry. I sip my Protein Shake over a 30 minute period then wait 30 min before I start sipping on Water. I know I'm not getting very many calories either. I'm hoping everything is going ok.

Be sure to sip on liquids all day, every few minutes. I for not drink enough even though I thought I was and became very dehydrated and sick. I thought for sure something was really wrong as I was weak and could hardly get out of bed but turned out I just needed some sugar in my blood and a lot of Water.< /p>

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
