I'm 13 days post op and everyday gets a little easier. I went without chest pain for 4 days then it hit me a little bit yesterday. How are you doing?

Go to a mall and walk for a few hours (2-3 hours top). You will feel so much better once you get home.

I totally got the same thing too and regretted the surgery the first week or two. When everyone tells you it gets easier there telling the truth. I'm almost four weeks out and I feel amazing compared to the first couple weeks. If you can swallow pills I used the extra strength gas pills, the gas strips are good but half the meds as you can get in the pills. I'm still taking them daily because of the gas, but they help! Walking every hour for 15 min will help too! Good luck girl, feeling better is right around the corner!

Thank you...IM trying to stay positive. Today I just miss the feeling biting into some food. Every day It gets better...or maybe IM just dealing with it all a little better than the day before but IM hanging in there. Have you been missing certain foods? what do you do when you crave for certain things?

      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.
