Sorry for the short post. I'm so exhausted and want to cough like no tomorrow but it hurts my tummy. Finally made it to the losers bench. Yay! Now back to sleep I go.

Well done, I had mine on 3rd April and have to tell you that in a couple of days time you will feel like a new person. At the moment I bet you feel like you have been steam rollered and that you can't possibly recover. Me too for the first couple of days but now I'm feeling fine and just a little tired in the afternoons. Be good to yourself, walk and sip that liquid.< /p>

Right on CONGRATS!!! Welcome to the losers bench!

Don't skimp on the breathing treatments for that cough. It's really important. All the best and heal quickly!

Thank you everyone yesterday was tough. I wanted to cry. I remember going into the operating room and they put the mask on me and I just kep yelling I can't breathe!!! Then promptly spit up something then next thing I know im in the recovery bay yelling help me lol. Crazy. Got some sleep, walked, got a few coughs and burps out. My dad felt it was a good idea to bring chili cheese frites to my room to eat.... My mom gave him the ultimate death glare lol so he ate in the mini living room. Feeling better today doesn't hurt as much to get up and use the restroom like it did yesterday. I loathe the breathing treatments but it's really important I do it. I'll keep everyone posted, back to bed I go!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
