I had mine ten days ago. I have had absolutely no problems. Walk as soon as you can. I was walking within 2 hours after leaving recovery. I then set my cell phone

timer, to make sure I walked every hour. I also set the cell phone timer to make sure I drank every 15 minutes. Use your cell phone, for all kinds of reminders, even Vitamins. I am using apps to keep track of my Water and Protein intake. All of this has or is helping me. Hopefully some of it will help you.

I had my RNY this morning at 9:30. I was in the recovery room by 1130. Not as much pain as I expected, now to take a nap hopefully. Not a lot of pain four on a scale of 0 to 10 nurses are great here! Thanks for the support

2AM. Just got done walking, used incentive spirometers now siting in the chair! My surgery yesterday. Surgery was less than 3 hours, also had my gallbladder out. Minimal pain and walking really helps. I'm so glad that I had this procedure to get healthy, fit and positive!

Mamie - congrats on your surgery! I'm so happy to hear your doing so well they say walking helps a lot with the gas.

Today is the first day of the rest of your new healthy life! Thank you for going on this journey with 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? 🤷‍♀️
