Day 4 post-op...feeling about 85 % normal!



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on Monday, March 24, day 2 and part of day 3 were the hardest for me. Got nauseated about 3 times, but since then I'm feeling better with each day. Today was the first day I felt a little hungry after smelling my husband's dinner cooking. This morning I had 1/2 cup of Tomato Soup and this evening I had 1/2 a can of fat free cream of chicken without the meat. It took me about 20 minutes to eat it & it was great. After about an hour I heated the rest and ate all of it too. I've been drinking 1/2 H20 &1/2 apple or crangrape juice. Which has been pretty easy to drink . I have also being taking teaspoons of a Protein supplement to try to get my protein in, although I haven't been able to get it all my protein just yet but hopeful to get it in. Know this might sound silly, but I felt I cheated because the Soup was so good and i couldn't tell if I was really full or if i was just being greedy. Nevertheless I'm Trying tto journal this journey as to keep me accountable to myself.

I am 4 days post op as well. I can only drink about an ounce of Water or my boost then I have to wait 15 minutes. Each day has gotten better. Walking has gotten easier. I am on boost shakes until I see my dr April 8th. I don't feel hunger at all and smelling food doesn't appeal to me either. I have to remind myself to drink.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
