Newbie looking for Oct sleevers!



Recommended Posts

Today has been my hardest day since surgery. I am 6 days post op.. I just don't want anything. I try to force myself to drink fluids and Protein but it just don't want it. This is the first day I feel nausea. I have been in bed for 70% of the day and I have no energy. I hope tomorrow will be better

Everyday will get better. I had s day like yours on my 7th day post op. What helped me or at least I like to think was drinking my Protein Shakes and increasing my fluids. It's tough I know because your not hungry but we must feed our body. Hope you feel better soon.

So is it safe to say we are all worried that something is going to happen and we will not be successful?

I've been overweight my whole life. I've been looking at boards and people's stats, and I just feel there's no way that I'll ever get thin. I have that 'It won't happen to me, something is going to happen" feeling. Weird !

Hate this feeling tonight !

I have this same feeling I also had this feeling before surgery, thinking it wasn't going to happen. It's weird but our mind thoughts can sometimes sabotage our progress. In time this too shall pass. Praying for a new thought process with my new healthy changes for us.

Everyone, I am definitely happy to be on the mushy diet but my doctor doesn't even want me eating potatoes or cream of wheat or any grains. He said to only eat the high Protein for my three little meals. I would love a little baked sweet potato, lol. I will have some at the holidays!

My absolute worst day so far was day 7 (if you count surgery day as day 1). I was completely lethargic, my take home pain meds ran out and I couldn't get more, everything hurt and honestly I slept most of the day and that really helped me out for Monday. You'll rally and I hope today is a better day for you too.

Going for my follow-up apt today Hope he takes me off Clear Liquids. 12 days of Clear liquids is enough. I haven't heard back on my pathology report on the gist tumor that was removed so I am scared and nervous. hoping he had the results today. He removed the tumor so worse case scenario we will have to watch to see if it comes back or aggressive approach is to go back in and do the gastric bypass.. I am ready to have soft foods. Finally getting tired of liquid's. Last day of solid food was Oct 3. I hope all our October sleeves are doing well. Keep me in the loop for contacts as I would love to continue to be a part this group if we should move locations. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Thanks for listening and supporting

      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? 🤷‍♀️
