Yah! Push the pain pump button IF you need it. We will never judge. ;) I'm 3 weeks out and lost 24lbs. After the 1st week I missed chewing and swallowing. But after the 2nd week I could have baby foods and that made me happy. Now this week it's Fork soft foods. I have no regrets. I just have to remember to sip ALL THE TIME and walk. You're on your way. Yah!!!!!

Thanks guys I'm feeling so much better than I expected. My chest and stomach feels sore but thats really where my pain is and getting up and down. i do have this small tube coming out of one incision that is like a pain ball I don't have to press it because its constant. But that is annoying. Doesn't really hurt and I know it's there to help but I don't really like having something hanging out of my tummy lol I just got home so I'm just trying to relax

That darn thing was my worst part too after surgery, and I had to keep it for 10 days, went home with it! Felt soooooo much better when doc took it out, I am 5 weeks out now, and doing pretty well. Just trying to get my head in line with my new little pouch. :rolleyes:

I was sleeved on the 11 of this month the only pain that I have had is in my wounds, no gas pain , I can drink up to 6 oz no problem. I'm on full liquids which I feel more satisfied the first 3 days I was so hungry , couldn't drink the Isopure liquid it was nasty , I'm drinking the premier chocolate Protein not so good but I have to ,

Waiting for my Unjury chocolate splendor and. The unflavored one hopefully taste better , the problem that I have is that I hate artificial sweeteners ,

But so far I'm happy I was expecting to be worse but thanks God not bad at all only when I caugh .

I was sleeved at kaiser with dr Casillas it was a good experience no. Regrets till now.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
