I Made It Home From Tijuana And I Feel Great!



Recommended Posts

I made it home last night not knowing what my wife was going to do. Well, it was OK. She didn't want to talk and I think that was for the best. For the time I'm off the road (I'm a truck driver) I'm just going to be a good husband and let her talk when she is ready.

Ok, back to me. So I'm day 4 and I feel great. Yes, I'm going to have to learn about my sleeve. She is vary unforgiving.( And yes, she is most definitely a she. ) I'm going to have to learning all over how to eat. For now just little sips of Water and let the Jello dissolve before you swallow and take one pill at a time of my meds. Nothing big just little things like that.

I just want to say one more thing. Boy em I glad that I did this. I'm finely an official Sleever. And Trish and Dr Ponce were great. I even got Trish to join Skype. Send me a message if you want her user name. Or ask her a Facebook.< /p>

Good for you Candyman. Hope your recovery goes well and your problems are small. Wonder why your wife doesn't support you. Hope that changes as everything from now on (post surgery) is a new step towards a better and healthier YOU. God bless & good luck.

Glad everything with the surgery went fine. I hope your wife comes around for the support as this is a very important part. Just being on this forum will help for support and information. Seems you are tolerating the surgery very well which is great. This is a start of a new lifestyle and I am sure she will warm up to your changes soon.

      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.
