Laurie, I too am 5 wks 2 days. I was just queasy with my choc Protein Shake about 15 min ago. Fortunately, mine doesn't stay all the time. I had to stop my shake which will be continued later. Funny how surreal surgery was. There was some discomfort but had none of the extreme nausea and discomfort experienced by some. Then 3 wks out I got gas so bad I could hardly move or breathe. It lasted about 4 days and I was so sore. Now I am starting to have nausea as of yesterday. When I lie down at night the hormones get started and I have flashes all night with the perspiration all over. I am sorry that you are having such problems. I hope it gets better soon. If you have nausea Meds from your surgeon, dont hesitate to take it; if not call the Surgeon's office and tell them your problem. They can help you while you get over this hurdle. I'm sure that when we reach goal it will all be worth it. Hold on, better days are coming.

Thanks Ann, I get very frustrated that others are doing so well and I am not. Hope you feel better soon too.

I went to copy something from my last post but edited/deleted my post by mistake :(. Just wanted to update to say I turned a corner the next day, am feeling so much better these past few days! I've managed to walk 3 miles/day and meet my Protein & Water reqs. I think the eating every 3 hours made the difference.

I hope you are doing better Laurie?

I've been feeling very tired and light headed when I stand up. My Dr said I wasn't getting enough Water. I upped my water to 64oz and my Protein is about 90 gms. Still feel like crap. What gives?

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
