I just had my surgery 10/23 I'm 6 days post op n I feel great! Surgery went great n yes I did feel pain once I woke up n was already in my recovery room but lil by lil I stayed strong. Since my week of pre op 10/16 till now I've lost a total of 30lbs so I can already tell this is going very well for me. I'm so glad I decided on the sleeve because first I was going to do the lapband. I'm still on the liquid diet pretty soon I'll start on soft foods I can't wait because getting tired of broth lol

That's fantastic!! Good for you! I was sleeved on 10/23 too. I only had to do 1 day of preop prep. I am down 11lbs. I ate all of my favorites and too much of it up until just past midnight of the day before surgery-too stuffed and I felt like I was saying goodbye to a best friend. Funny how the mind messes with ya. I felt that way when I quit smoking too. But what really ticked me off was letting these things rule my life. So glad to have this surgery and be able to grab the bull by the horns and have this tool to help me conquer this beast. Keep up with your posting, you are doing excellent!!! :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
