Just Breath..... hope it went well. Please post and tell me how it went. I was a tad apprehensive and it's natural to feel that a little when we are about to embark on a change! Now that you have the tool it will take a little time to get all it's function in the working mode. Praying for you to have a smooth journey. Just ask if there is anything you could use an ear about! Support makes all the difference! Go girl!

Surgery went good! It's the after that's, ugh! Yesterday very sore, felt full of air/gas, did some walking a let 2 lil burps out. Took 2 pain pills which helped me sleep. Today still feel sore not as bloated, but still to early to tell...

I'm happy I'm on the other side, just wanting the soreness to go away. Will do lots of walking today around my neighborhood

Hello. A week after my surgery I got sick, real bad nausea, had to go back to Dr, to get Fluid removed. Since then I'm sooo much better, I don't regret it anymore. Last week on Sunday I weighed myself and I'm 15lbs down ???? . I go this Friday for my 1 month follow up

      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.
