Don't know what the problem is,just had my sleeve 3wks. ago i hear people talk about how after surgery they go for weeks not wanting anything to eat, but seems like all i think about is eating & i can eat quite a bit before i feel full, i even eat 2 hands full of m&ms today didn't make me sick, i still crave sweets. So discouraged, can someone help.

Wow m&m's I wouldn't even go there I'm to afraid to cause a leak this early in the game but you do you lol ... I'm always hungry buying try to drink when I get that feeling and it kind of passes I crave real food but I'm only 11 days out and if this is the small price I have to pay to get my healthily life then I gladly will pay ....

I mixed vanilla bean Jello pudding and my vanilla bean Protein Powder with skim milk...it's DELISH!!! Whenever I crave something sweet I eat that. So I get my sweet fix and my protein!

Sorry I didn't respond earlier. The first few days after surgery were harder than I expected. Not from the sleeve Per de, but I think from a hernia repair that gave me such incredible reflux or heartburn I felt I was having a heart attack. Then I had some bladder issues and then slight fever and high blood pressure. It finally all turned the corner about 36 hours ago and feeling like I'm heading in the right direction. Heartburn still an issue but not as bad. The only down part is since feeling better I've gotten my appetite back and am hungry. I hope that changes when I can eat real food that fills me up quickly.

Let me know how your recovery is and I'll see if ther is anything I can offer in the way of advice. Hope all is well.

I'm home and last night and this morning have been tough. The radiating gas pains hurt so bad. It makes me cry. I almost vomited a couple of times. Once right after taking my liquid pain medicine. I'm praying for a speedy recovery. I'm not hungry yet. Good to hear back from you.

Lory,

I had to ask for a tablet pain med that I could crush (liquid made me vomit) I hide it in a tiny teaspoon of Greek yogurt. ( I know it's not clear but figured it is better than dry heaving my guys out) I'd also recommend gas x strips? Lots of walking, and a heating pad or microwaveable PEAS from The drug store. I put the hot PEAS pouch where I had gas and it helped. Good luck and I hope for some relief for you soon.

      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.
