I am so sorry you are feeling badly. The best thing you can do is talk to your surgeon and keep trying new things. What you toleraated before surgery may be different now post op. Also talk to your nutritionist and see if they can also help.

Best wishes!

I am sorry both you and mizzliz83 are having this difficulty. I am sending out positive thoughts of healing and health.

I have not been sleeved yet but based on reading tons of posts it seems as if everyone heals differently and at different

rates. I hope things start getting better each day for you.

Ask for zofran for nausea, dissolvable and works wonders! Remember SIP not gulp, and chew to liquid. Try changing up the temp of things, sometimes that helps. If you're still throwing things up, talk to your dr about redoing the swallow test. About 2 months out they found a leak in me (tiny though! And not to scare you sorry) you'd know though, I got violently sick, dry heaving when there wasn't even anything in me.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
