@@Margie122 So glad you made it home ok! I hope your nausea is gone.

@@shellyd67 Happy that there's minimal pain. I sure wish your heart rate would come back to a normal level.

@@TXTinana The incision that hurts you most is the same one hurting me. I can't move without feeling it tugging. The bleeding has pretty much stopped. The gas pain is a, well, pain, huh? Ugh.

Everyone, take care of you!

Been in my hospital bed most of this evening with a headache. Getting released in the morning and dreading the ride home.

Good evening all. Surgery went very well. I'm not in much pain from the surgery itself just sore. The gas pain is an other story. I just want to burp so bad. Overall I feel better soon Han expected. Now to sleep again.

@@thinkingthin15 Congrats! The gas pain is totally brutal. Walking as much as you can really does help. I almost always burp two or three times while I'm walking laps around the inside of my house...it's too hot outside. Keep us posted!

Feeling tired a lot. Want to sleep and sip. About to walk the hall again. Pain not to bad at all but getting my meds regularly which helps for when the burps happens. But overall I and 4/10.

The gas really is the worst part. 3 days post op today and I feel pretty good. I also am still wanting to sleep a lot and haven't been able to get all the liquids down but my doctor says that's okay right now just get down what as much as I can. Phew. This is definitely no "easy way out."

      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.
