Recommended Posts

I haven't drank Water in two full days.. and let alone put anything in my mouth other than my toothbrush. I am craving ice. Tomorrow morning is my xray and leak test and supposedly I can eat if all is well. The biggest problem since surgery is my heart rate.. and blood pressure.. hmm..but I don't feel anything. I do however get nauseous when I walk..and I hate this cathider lol I know I spelt it wrong. But who cares. Lol its annoying I don't even feel the pee coming out.. and they did it during the surgery

Hang in there...this was the toughest time for me too... not drinking, feeling nauseous and vomitting, and the pain meds made me so agitated! Just breathe, try to sleep and stay focused on positive thoughts for your leak test tomorrow! You got this!!

You seem to be in good spirits. That's a plus. I was dry heaving for two days. I couldn't even put anything in my mouth if I wanted to. I couldn't even take one sip of Water. SMH It's good you have a catheter because I couldn't pee. But when I started to dry heave and gag. There was nothng to vomit but bile and I would wet the bed. Then I would call for the nurse who never came. I was a big cry baby now that I think about it. I didn't have any pain just nausea and dry heaves. LOL

Get some rest you will need it.

I had my surgery last Tuesday the 14th. It was a life changing experience! Never had surgery so I was a nervous wreck. Woke up in a little pain and was not able to have Water for a whole day. My hospital roommate wet a rag for me and I sucked on the rag all nite to put moisture in my mouth lol or I wasn't going to make it.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
