Hey everyone!

I just started this account a few minutes ago. I will have my gastric sleeve surgery tomorrow at 7 am :o

I'm so nervous and excited at the same time. Any advice? :)

I'm in the very beginning stages. Have my sleep apnea scheduled tomorrow. I see you have had your surgery by now. How did it go? How are you feeling? I am excited for you and cannot wait for these 6 months to go by so I can be where you are at now!

Yes! 3 days post op today. The surgery went perfect, I feel some pain sometimes but I guess that's just the usual. I can't wait till I start seeing changes in myself.

Don't worry they will go by fast :)

Best of luck!

Well, I ain't gonna lie... That was probably the worst pain I've ever felt when I woke up from surgery. It took them about an hr to get my pain taken care of. But we got it under control. I've walked quite a bit and did what's called the blue ice test. I eat ice colored with some type of blue dye and they make sure none comes out in my drain tube as an extra leak test. I still look like I've been noshing on smurfs.

My vision is extremely blurry Bc of the nausea patch, and I'm so very nauseous that I've been dry heaving this morning. I have a low-grade fever, which is normal after surgery, but I still feel totally wiped out by it.

Yay SuberFab!! So happy to hear you're ok. I've had surgery quite a few times and those first hours after are pretty rough. I'm sure after another day you'll be feeling do much better. I hope your friend is doing better.

Keeps us posted on your progress. I'm so happy for you that this part is over and the good stuff is still to come! Watch that fever and get lots of rest!! YOU DID IT!!!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
