@angel22-99 this is what can happen when you had a lot of processed carbs and sugar in your diet before. Your body is experiencing a sugar low. It usually will ballance out after a week. Good luck!

Been on my all liquid pre-op since 8/27. I cheated on day 4. I am accustomed to it now and no longer hungry as long as I get enough Protein in. It really does get better.

@@JCP that's cool! I'm actually from new Braunfels, but traded in country living for city life. I am actually having surgery at north cypress medical center in cypress. I found a really amazing dr!

I had my sleeve done yesterday. There's quite a bit of upper left sided pain when first waking up and going to the restroom. Lots of gas trapped in the back and under the ribs. Pain does get better as the day goes on. Welp heres to the start of my new body!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
