Best of luck! My dogs sleep with me every night (it is a horrible habit I cannot seem to break but they keep me so warm) and they don't like my gurgling belly very much. :) They may not like it but they don't mind the extra long walks every day that they have been getting.

Puppy therapy helps the healing. My brother brought my fur neices over today and that made me so happy!!! The left side pain is so intense sometimes...like "things" are moving around inside!!!!!

Congrats on joining the loser's bench. I can still remember all the growling and churning Frankensleeve did that 1st week post-op. It does go away... slowly. B)

I'm 7days post-op and I'm feeling okay, able to get fluids down fairly well. Though, if I stand or walk for more than 10 min, I get a pain in my belly on the side of the largest incision area, and I have to sit down. It's not a topical pain near the incision site, it feels like something is pulling inside. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, will this go away soon?

Yes! Exactly! I hope this goes away soon so I can begin exercising. Also, getting in and out of bed has been quite a challenge. The couch is where I've been spending most of my nights :(

Clautxs, thank you for asking. I feel slightly better, but, when I don't take any pain meds, I still hurt a lot. I'm definitely sleeping better. I hope this gets better soon. I'd love to get out and walk more.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
