Feb 23 Sleevers!



Recommended Posts

Don't be scared, the infection is literally the only problem I've had so far, and it was only because the two that got infected were between my stomach and the roll above it so they rubbed (the stitches were possibly too tight also, as we had trouble getting them out). Everything else has been fine. No gas pain, no vomiting, thus far no acid refluc *knocking wood as I type all of this*

I had surgery 2/23. Feeling terrible right now. Bloating, nausea, abdominal pain. Can't wait for these days to pass. Feeling a bit regretful too!

I think it's pretty normal I had surgery the same day and I'm feeling the same way. I'm bloated and having a hard time eating or drinking the Jell-O and the Water

This just the beginning I'm sure will feel better soon I can't wait for these days the past two glad we're not doing it alone

The hunger may go away, for a little bit after surgery you still have the hunger hormone in your body. Also, some people don't feel the restriction until they hit mushy/solid foods.

Have you tried drinking a protien shake? It helps me not be hungry. Thats what I sip on all day.

Ok had my sleeve on the 23rd. Pain was out of control. I am home now and attempting to get rid of these gas pains. Hopefully I am able to rest. It's hard to get the shake and Water down but I continue to sip

I didn't have gas so I don't have first hand experience, but people say walking and gas-x strips.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
