I'm doing better today. Thank God! I plan on going for a walk with my dogs tomorrow. I hope it will help eliminate the remainder of the gas. I'm doing my best to try and burp every time I take a drink to help alleviate extra gas pains. So far today I haven't felt nauseous. Thank God!!!

I'm 3 weeks out and it feels like I pulled a muscle in my lower left abdomen. I'm not feeling nausea, dizziness, fever or anything other than the twinge when I move a certain way or sneeze. Anyone else experience this?

I am in my 4th week and this sounds exactly what I have experienced. This twinge/cramp in my lower left abdomen has me stumped and I have not been able to link it with food consumption, drinking copious amounts of Water, or position. It is a mystery; but, not a problem considering I have experienced NO vomiting, nausea, or associated surgical pain.

I had that happen too over the week end and I think it was due to lifting something too heavy like my three year old grandson. I felt like I pulled an abdominal muscle.

This started a couple of days ago. Like I said, no other symptoms except that twinge of pain from time to time. I wish I had an answer. I don't think its a leak since there are no other symptoms.

Hi guys,

I am two weeks post, and I am hardly losing anything. ...like 4 lbs???

Kinda frustrated, anyone else experience this? I am hoping it's just my body adjusting to the shock of losing my

gallbladder and part of my stomach.....

      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? 🤷‍♀️
