Surgery was done on September 6th. I stayed two nights in the hospital (due to being so nauseous). I'm finally back home. Only thing that is bothering me is the massive amount of GAS in my belly! Ugh, wish it would go away already! Other than the gas, I don't have any complaints! Surgery went well, and I feel fine today. Anyone have any tips on getting rid of the gas!

Good luck to you! Honestly, nothing is hurting (except the gas), but this is normal with any surgery... I'm so impressed with how well things went. Hope it stays this way! I took my puppy for a walk earlier, and it does feel better somewhat. Hope we can keep in touch. Things will be fine!

The gas comes out which ever way it chooses! Lol. I would welcome it to come out in any way, just not stay in my belly! Good luck to you 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.
