One week post op.



Recommended Posts

Can't believe it's already been 7 days. I've been back to work since day 5. I feel real good except the obvious pain from incisions and where my port had to be dug out. I've lost 29 lbs since February 4th and 14 since surgery day on the 11th. Two more weeks of liquid only and then onto my running program. Currently weigh 259lbs at 6'1.

I was sleeved on the 11th as well...can I ask, how much liquids are you allowed to eat for the next 2 weeks. I'm limited to 1oz per hour and no Vitamins until I get back to food...is this similar to you?

I am to drink 64 oz of Water a day. 60-80 grams of Protein in shakes. One between Breakfast and lunch and one between lunch and dinner. As for meals. I have cream of wheat for Breakfast. About an ounce or two. Then Soup the rest of the day. Very small. I am on a lot of Vitamins. All chewable from my post op kit bariatric source.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
