I had to stay 3 days. Why are you having to stay?

They want me to stay because I threw up the Protein Shake yesterday along with my crushed meds so they want me to stay on liquids and try the Protein tom...of course I would love to sleep in my own bed but I'm soooo afraid of dehydration!

Surgery date was the 14th. I am supposed to get down 48 oz of liquids and 40 grams of Protein. There is absolutely no way. It's 5pm and I have only managed 10 oz of Water and 3 oz of Isopure. I keep getting really sharp pains across my abdomen and up into my chest, last all but a few seconds. Other than that the belly pain is at a 4 inbetween lortab doses. @TStorm yes I have had diarrhea as well. So embarrassed, thought I was only passing gas and had to go change. My 18 yo daughter will never let me live that down. :o

I'm with you without the diarrhea. I just passed gas today for the first time. Lots of burps though

I'm getting my liquids in but when I drink I was getting nauseous. I have figured it out... its due to having to burp. So I usually burp a lot. The bubbling and rumbling gas is all I have to complain other than normal soreness.

And oh boy... I bet she won't let you forget that! !! I am also on oxycodone (not mixed with tylenol just straight oxy). It makes me really sleepy

I'm sorry you're having issues. I understand tho, that's why I had to stay. I too wanted to come home but didn't want to get myself in trouble and just have to go back later. It will pass and you'll feel better. Keep us posted. I hope you feel better very soon!

Oh my gosh! I too am having issues with diarrhea! Thought I might be the only one. It's about to do me in. I just went to the store to get out of the house, didn't think I was going to make it home. :(.

I had my sleeve done on January 31st, I am feeling almost normal now. I have lost 26.5 pounds total including the preop diet. I was wanting to start doing some light exercise like walking, but I have been advised not to until I am about 4-5 weeks postop. Has anyone else been told not to exercise?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
