Any May 26th Sleevers out there?



Recommended Posts

Hi there....I am a bit nervous the closer I get too. I worked Saturday night and all I wanted to do was sleep lol...liquid diet messing with my energy levels ????.

As for the hibiclens I think you do it the day before but no later than the morning of the surgery. It works for up to 24 hours. I'm a former ER nurse but I seem to remember this from my OR rotation. I also checked the website just to make sure.

Hope all goes well with my fellow 5/26/15 sleevers! ????????

I was told to use the soap the night before and the day of.

Today is Day 7 for all liquids. Tomorrow I can only do Clear Liquids. Not getting nervous yet but I'm positive I will.

Hi all! I feel like we are in line to get on a crazy roller coaster and waiting our turn! Today I got nervous - but as I'm dropping of my kids at our neighborhood pool, I can't wait to get through the hard part of recuperation and regain my confidence.

Hope everyone does well on Tuesday!

Ok I got done and back in my room around 11:00 this morning. Had some nausea and vomiting upon waking up but gone now. I've been up and walking twice so far. I feel really good. I wanted to wish everyone belated good luck!!!!

I hope each of you comes out of recovery doing well and comfortable. Not hungry but my mouth feels like cotton due to dryness. No real pain just sore.

Throat rough due to intubation but even that is more nuisance than any real pain. How is everyone else doing?

Hey Michelle

My name is Julia.

I also had my surgery today. I went back around one and was in recovery around 3 and in my room by 5. I haven't had any nausea and I'm so thankful. Sorry you did. I can only imagine how horrible that was. I have had pain in my side that I'm having to deal with, they tell me it's from the hernia repair. Like you, my mouth is soooo dry and my throat hurts a bit and texting is much better over trying to talk. I feel like my breath is horrible!

What sucks they have a Starbucks in this hospital and advertisements up all around. Lol

I'm so excited to see where this journey takes me and wish everyone else the best on their journey also ????

      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? 🤷‍♀️
