I don't think you're gonna die. You just need to baby your new sleeve right now and follow your doc's instructions. I'm sure you'll feel better soon, and then be careful from here on out. If pain is really bad seek medical help.

You are not going to die but follow your doctors orders. They are there for a reason.

Don't forget you've just had major surgery. It will take some time to settle, but promise it will. Take your pain meds, stick to fluids only, I was allowed milky drinks here in the UK. If things don't ease up in the next few days just check in with your doctor. It does get better and it is so worth it. Good luck with your new life.

Wow...ice cream?? Tsk Tsk Tsk... live and learn sweety. Stick to Clear liquids, broth, sugar free pops, Jello, and i guarantee in about 2 days you'll feel good and in 5 days you'll feel almost like your old self, but lighter. Stay positive and walk walk walk, that's the ONLY thing that really helps gas/bloating pain. Walk every two hours, especially after eating/drinking anything and drink very small sips. I am 6 weeks out today and feel AMAZING!! Have lost 21 lbs since surgery down 2 dress sizes, have more energy now, no pain, eat real food (tiny amounts which I am good with) and feel terrific and happy. Good luck!

Yes, I had a hard time at least the first five days with the Protein Shakes. Not only did they make my stomach upset but it seemed my tastes buds changed and the were just nasty to me. I went to the GNC and bought a few of their Isopure drinks that have 40 g of Protein each. I can now tolerate the shakes again. 11 days out and I wish u much luck!!!

Hope you continue to feel better day by day. Review the information you have been given to ensure you are indeed following your doctor and nutritionist's specific week by week eating guides. I had my sleeve with hiatial hernia repair on 6/12 and today is my day 4 and I'm feeling pretty good, but I know everyone is so different.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
