Im going today to have some removed.. I went yesterday and the removed all my flood to see how much was in there .. I had 7.5 and have not had a fill since jan.. He put that back and added .5 now I can't even get liquids down:(

Just wondering how long it will take for me to be able to drink again after he removes some

If he removes some and you still can't swallow some Water, he needs to take some more Fluid out, a little at a time until you can drink Clear Liquids. Don't leave his office without testing the fill by drinking some water. Especially on a Friday! You could have a really miserable weekend with a band that's too tight.

:) You could help "train" the new doc. Someone's gotta do it! Tell him/her that you need to test the fill before you leave the office and don't let him/her leave the room until you're both satisfied that everything's OK.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
