The two days after surgery are rough. I dealt with nausea and pain. I threw up twice the day after. Walking around after a few minutes made me fell sick. Yet, every day gets better. I had the surgery on a Monday and went home on Wed. My recovery is actually going well now. I was off of the pain meds by Friday.

I am still on a clear liquid diet :-( I get in a minimum of 40 oz. or liquid in a day. I take a Multi-Vitamin (centrum chewable), Biotin, and allergy meds, for now. I have no trouble swollowing the pills. I am still working on getting my Liquid Protein in. I am not a big fan of the shakes. I will be starting the puree phase next week. I rarely feel hungry but I miss chewing food!!

Surprisingly, I don't feel fatigued. I started work yesterday and I feel good.

Right now, my pain is rare and minimal.

I've lost 14 lbs since the day of surgery.

Advise: Take one day at a time. Each day gets better. Follow your doctor's diet to a T. Weight yourself every morning. Sip, sip, and sip some more. Walk, walk and walk some more.

hello, I said the same thing - as for me doing good lost 30 since the surgery of 9/2/11, I have some good days and some not so good ones, they said you are not supposed to be able to feel hungry pains and I said bc. no one knows i had this done, and people are starting to notice and it pissed me off at work on saturday night l most lost my cool. had to make a few phones calls to bring it under control, I just never thought about the process of what others will see or think - because it is my life, and it not there business.

other than that I hope the weight comes off slowly getting in the habit of exercising now I will give this my all......

      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.
