I'm alright! I wake up in the middle of the night with gas pain and pain from my incision. Oh and nausea! But once i take all my meds I'm comfortable again. I was hoping to go back to work in two days. I may be playing that by ear... I had surgery Oct. 11... So I'm three days post op. I have the best tasting shakes! Syntha6 chocolate!

I am doing good. Gas is starting to go away. I've been walking a lot which helps a ton! I gotta admit I'm starting to feel pretty awesome. For those who are still waiting to get banded, try not to stress. It'll be over before you know it. My prayers are with all of you.

Congrats!! Yes, those both will go away. Did they give you anti nausea medication? Try putting a heating on the gas pain areas and moving around helps. I am 4 days post op. I am still feeling a little bit of gas pain but not much. Good luck! :)

YAY!!! Welcome to the other side...lol. The gas pain gets better with time. I recommend walking. I've been walking everywhere since surgery and its helped out a ton. Don't rush it though, take your time.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
