I am so happy :) there is very very little discomfort and I can't wait to see results. The doctor and hospital staff were amazing and I just couldn't be happier right now.

Congratulations and prayers for a speedy recovery. You still have lots of drugs that they use during surgery and your body is numb. As it wears out you might feel tender and sore. Have your heating pad ready. My shoulder discomfort didn't start until about 7-8 hours after surgery and remember to walk, it will help you get the gas out.

Oh I'm in a little pain don't get me wrong I just do a lot of walking when I get to hurting and it makes me feel better. The drugs help a little but I don't want to take it. I think what hurts the most is gas so walking helps. I did so much walking the nurses would have to page me lol. The dr said out of 6 he did that day he thinks I was doing the best so walk walk walk.

Rojasanoll, how are you doing? Hope you're doing well...

I'm feeling very good. Drinking my Protein Shakes Breakfast and lunch. Belly button ache and that's it. I think the hernia repair doesn't hurt me anymore. For dinner I'll try a cream Soup and see how it goes. I'm trying to stay light for a few more days. Coughing/hiccups hurts me, so that tells me I'm still tender inside. Now I don't have to take the liquid vicodin every 4 hours, but 6-8 hours. Been doing more walking outside my house several times. I drove a bit on Tuesday, went into a bank and had Decaf tea with a friend at Starbucks. Today I drove 3 blocks to pickup cleaner clothes. I seem okay this quick after surgery. Best wishes to the others who also are recovering.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
