Yes it will get better, the first couple of weeks are the hardest. The first 2 weeks I would say I actually wanted to die and I cried everyday but now I'm 8 weeks out and I soooo love my sleeve and would do it all over again

It will get better!

I was sleeved on Dec 6th as well. I am sorry you are having so many problems. I just started mushy foods. Everyone is different and every surgeon is different with rules. I hope your doctor gives you some additional tips on the 5th. Are you still taking or have you taken any anti-nausea medicine? You WILL NOT feel this way forever. It's just one of those bumps in the road.

Good luck and keep us informed.

Ask you doctor for some medication for nausea.

Make sure you start the day with something warm. Warm things relax the stomach and make it easier for things to go down.

It does get easier, but unfortunately, for some people , it just takes a little bit longer.

Also, make sure you are taking a PPI for the acid. I forgot to take mine this morning and I felt sick to my stomach!

Well, I'm having a different problem - I got my sleeve on 12/1. I feel great, but I haven't lost much weight. Only 14 pounds since surgery. Is anyone else having this problem? I'm discouraged, and wondering if it's working as well as it should. Am I doing something wrong?

      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.
