My fellow 16th-er... Have you noticed any weight loss yet? Also what kind of Soups have you been eating? I'm getting bored with cream of mushroom cream of chicken and Tomato. (Not that I eat more than three bites each) ;)

Is that what that pain is in my abdomen? Gas? I haven't passed much gas...everything went really well, I think...just kinda sore...throat where they put in the breathing tube and abdomen. Feeling much better than I feared I would. The whole thing was so much less painful and invasive than I had feared it would be. Relieved. Now my new life starts! (I lost about 14 pounds on that prep diet of liquids. Thought I would never want to look at liquid again...but after having my last sip of Water on Monday night at 10 pm (12-22) and not able to have any liquids until this morning (12-24) @ 6am....I am grateful for liquids.feeling a bit bloated (odd) and sore...but all in all, I am a happy camper! :D

Actually this feels a lot like it did after childbirth (all 3 times). Loud noisy gas and sore abdomen...just worried about whether I should be pooping or not? (Not that I have put much in to poop out in the past week...)

I didn't poop for like 8 days. There isn't much in there ;)

Gotta love the honesty of this site! ????

      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? 🤷‍♀️
