Hey everyone I was sleeved on Monday at 8 am...I'm still in the hospital due to the amount of pain I'm having...and the strokes hurt really bad...it does feel like everyone else said, like period cramps and a thousand sit ups that I wasn't ready for...I am so glad I had this forum so I knew about the cough pillow and gas x strips...they have saved me...the only thing in concerned with is I am weighing in at 10 l s more than I was when I got here

I weighed 9 pounds more when I came out of surgery than I did when I went into surgery. I think it's due to all the liquids they give you via IV. Sorry you are having so much pain and I hope for a speedy recovery for you. I am 6 days post op and feeling ok. Good luck and God bless.

I'm glad your doing ok. I gained two lbs being in hospital, but I lost 3 this morning, I am not getting in all my protien. Nothing taste good, the nectar makes me gag. I have a question? Is it ok to have the juice from pinto Beans. They smell so good and I'm starving

Hey try hitting the pain pump as much as you can before the walk, wait a few minutes and then walk it out.

Congrats!!! It gets better each day... Trust me!!! Just walk as much as you can.. and practice getting out of bed alone, if you're not already doing that... It definitely helped me prepare for moving around at home...Blessings and a speedy recovery...

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
