Omggggg I have been drinking lean shake 25 from GNC for my Protein supplements' date=' and I have been using 1 scoop. Just realized the serving size is actually two scoops. That'll teach me to start reading labels! Hope I didn't ruin everything with my progress this week...

Hi everyone. This is 4th day post-op and I still feel uncomfortable' date=' stomach upset, feel pain at times when drinking. I am moving around better this morning but not up to getting outside. Is this normal?[/quote']

From what I've read, it seems perfectly normal! It takes a good week before your back up on your feet. You had major surgery and the anesthesia alone takes awhile to go away! Keep moving as much as you can and give yourself some time!

Hello everyone, I made it to the post op group yay! Just a quick update on how I'm feeling. The pain is very tolerable, I actually found gallbladde surgery worse. Had my surgery friday morning and today was my hardest day. Not the pain tho...the nausea. Omg :( I was crying and found myself regretting my decision to have this done. After alot of graval and zofran I was much better and I don't regret this at all. Everyones healing process is different and I have to remember that and remind myself that a few days of pain and nausea is worth the life change and happier healthier me. I'm home now resting and walking. My kids are ginornous helps! And the pain meds my Dr gave me are helping so much with everything. Hope everyone post op is doing extremely well and look forward to everyones success :-)

Had my surgery on Friday...anyone noticing word body temperature Ups and downs? Hot/cold? No fever...could be that I started my period... Its just strange...

My temperature has gone up and down since my surgery last Weds. Doctor is only concerned if it goes over 100. I am amazed how much your taste buds change... I loved powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein shakes and was drinking them as part of my 4 month pre-surgery weight loss. Now they are challenging to get down. Also, I fill up so fast on anything that I eat that I start to get heart burn and hic cups very fast. Every day gets a little better, so let's just all hang in there!!!

I'm 3 days out and the smell of real food doesn't bother me at all! It actually turns my stomach. I tried eating some cream of wheat today and my pouch was like umm nope that's gross. Even struggling to drink Protein shakes to ensure I'm getting my Protein in. Its difficult!

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
