I had my sleeve done on July 28th and had my first check up this past Wednesday and I am down 17 lbs. I am on the purée and blended stage now. Every time I am getting something I am getting pain in my stomach and than it feels like it's stuck. Please tell me that this temporary and it will go away. I am getting so discouraged and also nervous.

I hope so because I am also feeling these same symptoms. I also had my sleeve done on July 28th. I use my nutri ninja to blend my food and I seem to tolerate that pretty well. It is when the food is not blended well or food is chunky or thick I have the stomach pain and feel sick.

Maybe it's a July 28th thing(my date too). I've found that I really need to make my meals very thin consistency and eat very slowly or I get stomach spasms and pain in my left shoulder. It's hard, because I'm hungry- not ravenous, but hungry. Protein Shakes go down okay, and Water no longer tastes metallic to me. All in all, everyday gets a little better. Hang in there!

I also had severe issues with this. My md changed my Prilosec to two times daily which has improved things very much!

Guys need to be honest if u had to ask me the only bad thing about this surgery is that feeling..that along with gagging and sometimes vomiting up froth..ive lost 27 lds in 3.5 months. And if i eat one or 2 bites im ok,,,,or protien shakes yogurt also good but real food. Really hurts..hope it gets better

      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? 🤷‍♀️
