I'm still in the ER. Feeling better. They're trying to determine where my nausea is coming from. I believe it's my esophagus. I'll keep you guys updated.

Congrats on coming down 2 sizes!!!

Hi ladies! Got my sleeve yesterday! Doing pretty good. Minimal pain. Just tightness. And, some pain if I drink too fast. Trying to remember to sip, sip, sip! Hoping to go home today! :-)

Hope everyone else is doing well!

Got my surgery yesterday morning. Felt horrible for about 2 hours but when I got to my room and was able to walk I felt a lot better. I'm doing so well that if I can keep 4 8oz bottles of Water (sipping every hour of coarse) I can go home!!!! I'm so excited

Hi!! I'm currently in the ER everyone! I haven't been able to keep ANYTHING down these past two days. Not even a sip of hot tea. So' date=' my doc sent me here for IVs and meds. I felt much better after vomiting so many times (sorry...TMI) but I'd be on a road to dehydration if I didn't come. Pray for me!!!

8 days postop -- sleeved 8/12. 30 pounds down since 7/29.[/quote']

Keeping you in prayer! Hope today proves to be better for you.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
