Day 4 post surgery. I am feeling better everyday. I've lost the weight I gained in the hospital and an additional 4 pounds. No nausea or vomiting but I am using pain meds. Pain is not severe, more "uncomfortable". And I tire out quickly if I do a lot. How are you doing?

I was sleeved on the 28th as well. Thankfully not having any problems with drinking Water or Protein Shake other then I can only sip small amounts at a time. The worst part about it is the pain when getting up or sitting down but each day it is lessening.

I was sleeved on that day as well. I feel sore but all is well otherwise. The first night oat op was horrid such pain. I cried and thought I made a mistake. Today a few days later I'm better. Tie rating liquids well... About to be discharged in a few hours o begin my new life.

I feel excited and hopeful about the future..

Day six- off pain meds down from sw of 214 to 205. I feel hunger pangs but they are usually quelled by some Protein. I cringe when I get on the scale (out of habit.) I still expect to see no weight loss like my endless diets of old. Hope my September buddies are doing well.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
