@@dar81 I'm sorry! I literally slept the entire time after surgery. I have only been waking up to pee and to be honest it does hurt to get up and down. It's not that bad tho. Dr. Paragi finished my surgery in about an hour and a half! The only thing that's been really hard is how thirsty and dry my mouth is. Later at 6am I have a gastric emptying test to do to check for any leaks. I hope it goes well and that I get to go home today!

Thanks everyone. I got here about 530, got called back at 6, tried to get ic in twice, would not work. Just now had some pain meds other than Tylenol so I'm finally feeling good. Passion was pretty bag. I didn't think it would be. Anyway I am chemically altered and tea rambling.

It sounds like you are really high! I am so happy for you!

Agreed--the gas pains are killer! I got my drain out this morning--hoping that helps with pain. Getting discharged and back to the real world today...

I am happy u got to rest and hope today's test goes smoothly for you! So excited for my procedure but this liquid diet just may kill me only on day four and man was my stomach growling all night! Tryin an new turkey broth today my fiancé found :) and I found if I use crushed ice in Protein drinks it feels like I'm eating a bit chewing on ice lol. Mind over matter. But hard very hard! So nervous about pain I've had several cysts removed gallbladder and appendix and I hear this is worse so I'm pretty scared yet anxious!

Get rest and ttys!!!!!

Ok maybe now I can type and make sense. Everything went well. Horrible pain yesterday and last night. Went on a few walks, feeling better, when yall refer to gas pains do you mean the pain kinda under the breast bone? That as been the worst for me. I should be going for leak test this morning and maybe get togo home this evening. Dry mouth and dry lips were the worst yesterday. I've had ice and a few popcicles. Anyway so thankful that everything went smoothly.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
