Omg I just had a 48 hour intense battle with gas... I swear I thought I was dying.

I don't think ill get used to this gas I hope that it dies down or isn't as intense very soon! Worst feeling ever!

HE:248

First Dr.appt:236

Surgery date: 219.8

CW:199.6

Sleeved 8/12

Eating 3 meals a day, maybe a small snack (edamame) and sometimes struggling with Water, but mostly I can get in 2 liters.

I have learned that a variety of stuffed chicken is my friend, lol.

I had a three week period when I gained and lost the same 3lbs. I think it was related to 1. The fact that I have the female cycling hormones 2. I think I was getting too much Protein.

This worries me a little because I am almost to that point of my cycle again.

I was getting almost 100gm of Protein with meals and shakes. Now, no more shakes and I see good movement on the scale.

I had the same issue for three weeks. Mine was the opposite problem though. I was only able to keep 8-15 grams of protein down a day and 16-24ounces of Water. But it was during my Cycle as well.

Surgery date: 8/21 Doing ok. Lost about 28 pounds so far. weighed in on monday and again this morning, still at 242. I really hope im not about to hit this dreaded stall i keep reading about!

Did really well first few weeks out.....now not so much. Not having any real problems getting anything down. The 'you're full stop eating' sensor still works but my weight loss has really slowed. Didnt notice it until i stepped on the scale. Trying not to worry about it to much :unsure: I'll focus more on the NSV.

I thought I had gas too and it ended up being a clot between my stomach and liver. If the pain doesn't stop, please see your surgeon! A CT scan quickly found my clot.

      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.
