I had my surgery on November 23, 2012 in Plano at the new Victory Healthcare Center. What type of progress in terms of physical activity, sleeping on my side, driving, etc... Should I be experiencing at 6 days post op? And I didn't weigh the morning of surgery, so I can't pinpoint exactly how much weight I have lost until my 2 week post op. Anyone else have a laproscopic incision in your belly button?

I don't, they made 6 small incisions and they have pretty much gone away.The first two weeks i could sleep on anything but my side.I would sleep on the couch with my back to the couch and on my side.When i diff sleep in my bed again i woke up on my stomach and wad in alot of pain.Is funny because when i was overweighti could only sleep on my stomach and now 167lbs later i can't sleep on my stomach at all.

I assume you mean Oct. 23. If so that's when I had mine. I'm losing about .5-2 lbs per day. I sleep on my side and cannot sleep on my stomach so I guess everyone is different.

I start full liquids tomorrow. I'm excited for new flavors but also nervous about the taste, how my stomach will handle it and if I'll keep losing.

Thank you all for sharing your experiences! It is so difficult not knowing what to expect. Yes, surgery was 10/23/2012. Have lost 34 pounds, but seems to be slowing down. I am strictly following all of the rules, and I hope I do not stall at this point. Some foods I have added during this soft solid stage makes my stomach feel awful...don't know what to eat, so I end up back to Soup.< /p>

Was DR.Davidson from Presby Dallas? He did my surgery at Forest Park Dallas.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
