Day 3 post op and doing well... Gets kinda rough when the pain meds wear off but overall It's been much much easier than I expected... Fluids are a breeze been drinking Protein Shakes today too... Finally passed gas this morning and its like the farty floodgates opened I'm a tootin fool much to the delight of my 3-year old but breaking wind feels soooooo good... I'm gonna attempt a shower when my wife gets home I'm sure that will feel awesome keep your chin up everyone everyday is better

What Protein Drink? I'm having a hard time finding one I can tolerate post op.

Well I got home from the hospital today. I was so sick to my stomach the first day, they had to put me on a medication for nausea which had an adverse reaction of urinary retention. So I had to come home with a foley cath. Well Im going to get off of here....pain medicine kicked in. Praying for everyone to have a speedy recovery.

      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.
