How many days until...



Recommended Posts

I am 2 weeks out so I'll answer what I can...

I'm still in a recliner and am planning on being there for another 2 weeks probably.

I am able to get in my 64 oz and 70 g Protein now. I was able to probably as of day 9 or 10.

The gas pains left as of day 6/first bm (sorry tmi) BUT i am still having active gas creation at both ends (very embarrassing since i've been at work all week in a quiet cubicle setting)

Get up in the night to do what? Bathroom or just walk? I haven't gotten up at all but I also was using pain meds immediately before bed up til a day or two ago which knocks me out. I've been having trouble getting up in the morning.

Good luck to you in your recovery!

I had heartburn at first when laying flat. I was okay by day 4 or so.

10 days out and I am still struggling with getting more than 40 oz or so of Protein.

Gas pains were gone by day 3.

Slept through the night after 3 or 4 days.

You no longer slept in a recliner?
You were able to get in your full 64oz and 70g Protein?
The gas pains left completely?
You could sleep through the night without getting up?

I slept in my bed flat day four, I got over the gas pain after fiveish days, I still do not get in the right liquid or food, ( today meal four bites of tuna and three multi grain crackers one Gatorade small size and 3 ounces tea and a cup of coffee) I slept all night day four when I came home from hospital. I slept for three days besides getting up a couple times to sip because my husband made me.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
