@@Deanah, very glad to hear from you! I'm worried about staying hydrated after surgery, it sounds like its a lot harder to do than thought!! Are you able to drink any Protein Drinks?

Yes, I'm able to drink the Protein drinks although I don't like them. Drinking Water, too. I'm not taking in as much as recommended, but coming as close as I can. I'm definitely not dehydrated. I advanced from my week 1 Clear Liquids diet to my week 2 full liquids (4 days early) because I couldn't stand it anymore. I plan to confess to my surgeon at my follow up appointment. I'm able to slowly eat 1/3 cup of Trader Joe's puréed black bean Soup. My mouth and brain are much happier now. No real hunger to speak of. Just couldn't take the boredom.

Things are looking good, no concerns from the doc. I was transitioned to full liquids so tried cottage cheese mashed and chewed about a teaspoon and was in pain the rest of the evening. I'm feeling hungry, head hunger I'm sure but not getting Protein and Water in yet makes me wonder if it's just head hunger. I have a constant fullness, I just wonder if this will ever go away

I'm doing really well no complaints. Doctor I have makes his patients to a blood thinner injection for ten days after surgery for pulmonary embolism thats the worst part right now. I realized how much I ate because of boredom before surgery.

My dr had me do injections post sleeve and I also have to do them post RNY. I did heparin the first time. This time it's lovenox.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
