Having a hard time getting my fluids in let alone anything else. Happy to be home though. At least I got some good sleep last night.

I too am having trouble getting anything down. I literally have to force myself to eat. It is such a strange feeling for me to feel full and satisfied after only three to four bites. I am now two days post-op and still a little sore and uncomfortable, but it's nothing unbearable. I still haven't pooped yet though. I can poot like nobody's business I just can't poop. Anyone else having or have had this problem?

Just get as much of it at you can, my only advice. I didn't have to take and clean my system before RNY. Just before my surgery on Tuesday. Good luck.

I had the same problem. I think I finally pooped 3-4 days post-op & was so happy. Lol It's weird,I know, because I used to poop like 3 times a day...probably because I ate so much! I still have problems pooping every now & then. I usually go 3 days between bm's. I get super excited when I go though because I loose more weight. Lol ;-)

I had my revision on Thursay jan.31, the surgery went well. I do have JP drain and a q bag, last night the pain was in bearable under my left breast, I was admitted back to the hospital last night... I hope it's just gas but it hurts....especially when I inhale. Has anyone experienced this?

This is where my pain was the worst and still hurts. I had two JP drains and when they puled the one from the left side I thought I was going to die. My program has us in the hospital for 3-4 days so we get Jp's out and you feel much better prior to discharge. I was told that alot of the equipment goes throught the left side so that side if often more tender. Like I said this is still my problem side and I had surgery the 24. Hope you feel better...

Thank you much! Regardless of the pain I've been waking walking and walking! I will be so glad to this drain out.... Congrats on your surgery!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
