I'm actually a December, but my surgery was on New Year's Eve so I'm kind of a January, too!

How are you doing so far?

I was pretty sore the first few days, but now at 11 days, I'm feeling pretty good. My left side is definitely more tender. It's improving daily though. I just use regular Tylenol capsules. They seem to do the trick.

I'm scared to try to swallow a cap or pill yet. My doc is very strict, much more than most I read on here. I am on Clear Liquids for 2 weeks, then full liquid for 2 wks. No pills at all.

My surgery was 1/9. I came home yesterday, I must say I feel much better than I thought I would. Working on my first Protein Shake this morning. I would love to connect with others who recently had surgery.

I came home yesterday too. My surgery was 1/9 as well. My left side is very bad and I keep getting out of bed and then back to bed. My liquid pain meds don't help much. I am excited to see someone with my same date! Lucky you, you get a Protein drink! I'm on clear liquids til the 20th. Then full liquid for another 2 wks. How is your pain?

I was on clear liquids for the first week and now full liquids for two weeks, too. Truthfully, I am glad of it. I am relearning how to eat and taking it very slowly. :-) I am able to take pills, though.

Tonight I'm starting to miss any type of food. Liquids are hard. Even if I could have a Protein Drink it would help. I can't even have skim milk.. I have 7 more days of this, any ideas to help?

Have you tried Swanson's chicken tortilla broth? It's slightly spicy, but it tastes rich. They also have a Thai ginger. I'm not as keen on it. Anyhow, that broth really helps me get through.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
