I'm not feeling all that great. Having a hard time getting liquids in. Nothing's tastes good. Gas is getting somewhat better though. Just my left side is killing me :(

Had my surgery on 2/26 also and are still dealing with lots of gas, some stomach pains from surgery but quite a bit of pain in my left shoulder/collar bone area. I am having a hard time getting liquids down but hopefully that'll change soon! Good luck with your journeys!

How are my follow 2/26'ers? Feeling any better? Im still trying to figure out this whole thing! When to eat, what to eat, when to drink. Lots of little aches and pains I'm trying to figure out as well. They are right when they say its a whole lifestyle change!!

I'm doing the same as you! Still having horrible left sided pain. Gas is alot better though. I'm just exhausted feeling and my back is killing me from walking all weird and laying on my back at nighttime. I've been sitting with a heating pad on it most of the day when I'm not up walking. Hubby made me laugh a few times and I literally thought I was going to die from the pain. I'm supposed to go back to work tomorrow but I truly don't feel ready. I'm maybe at 65%. How long did everyone take off work?

Hanging in there! I can honestly say that I feel MUCH better than I had anticipated. With that being said, my two issues... My abdominal muscle where trey removed my stomach is still very sore and I'm still dealing with the gas discomfort. Both are something that I can live with and seem to improve every day.

I'm VERY glad I decided to take two weeks off of work and not just one. There is no way I am personally ready to go back to work right now. I feel that my energy levels are still adjusting and I need a bit longer to adjust to the mental end of this.

      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.
