Depends on how you heal and how hard you push yourself. I felt pretty close to normal by about two weeks post op. The fatigue lasted until I could eat soft foods - the long liquid diet my surgeon requires was challenging for me. The most lingering pain for me was a dull ache on my side if I tried to side sleep - that lasted the longest. Maybe close to a month. Everything else healed up pretty quickly and nicely. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly I felt normal again.

Congrats on that new sleeve!

Its been 2 weeks for me and I feel almost normal. I still got a little soreness but other than the fact I am tired all the time I am having no trouble getting around. I've been sleeping really well with out any meds also. So that's a plus lol.

I was sleeved Monday 11/4 and I feel pretty damn good. My incisions don't hurt. I just feel kind of 'wrong' inside, but it's not painful. I had a bad headache since the nite of surgery, but have felt pretty good since this morning. Especially after getting home and being in my own home.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
