Anyone with Surg between Nov 13th and Nov 18th

Hi fellow sleevers - just found this group and wanted to jump in. I was sleeved in Tucson Az on Nov 17th. I went back to work on Monday and am also feeling fairly sluggish. Got to start with an egg last night - sure felt good to eat something "solid" after liquids for so long. I am looking forward to sharing my journey with you all! Beth

Welcome to the group Beth. I was also sleeved on the 17th and returned to work on Wednesday. Although I have to admit, I didn't do much. Just felt tired and sluggish! I did take the B12 this am and I am hoping that I will start seeing some energy come back!

Hi everyone...just found this thread, are you all still active? I was sleeved on Nov. 29th and hoping to find others that are in the same boat as me.

Hope you all are doing well!:rose:

Hey there Sassy...I was sleeved on Nov. 18th & am feeling much better now! I am finally able to eat without pain & can just about eat anything I want...just NOT much of it! :) I am having to take Nexium for the acid in my stomach, but other than that I am good. I will be starting Curves program on Jan. 3rd & so far I've lost 30 pounds. I LOVE my sleeve! Hope all is goin well with you. Keep us posted!

Hi Rhonda! I'm so glad this thread is still active.

That is so great that you've already got your workout plan together and congrats on your weight loss!! Eating is getting much easier for me too but I'm still learning exactly what I can and can't handle. Finally had scrambled eggs this morning...oh my were they yummy!! I was even able to get some down with hot sauce...I'm Mexican and having to wait another two or four weeks to add spicy food is a KILLER! My doc has me on Prevacid for four months too. How long will you have to take Nexium?

Happy 2011, everyone! :grouphug:

Sassy,

Not real sure how long I'll have to stay on the Nexium but I would rather stay on it permanently than to go thru the pain of trying to eat without it. It's almost as though I'm scared to get off of it.

I LOVE mexican food & that's been the hardest thing of all is to avoid spicy foods and I've MISSED chips & salsa like you wouldn't believe! I am hoping in a few more weeks I'll be able to eat a little bit of Mexican food & be happy! :)

Hope you continue to do well. Let me know if I can help in any way!

I will DEFINITELY reach out. Just wanted you to know that you've already motivated me...I've been checking out the fitness classes offered at my local park district and found one that's giving a free week of Jazzercise the first week of January. WooHoo! I'll be going to that and seeing what else I can fit into my schedule.

      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.
