I'll be at the hospital at 7am. Not really nervous. Just hungry, the clear liquid diet is horrible. But I've lost 3 pounds in one day so that's a plus.

My surgery went well. No complications, I've been able to sip about 10 oz of Water in about 3 and a half hours. I haven't taken any oral pain med since being moved to a room. I've been burping like crazy though. I might actually be able to go home.

My surgery went smoothly but I am in a great deal of pain. Nothing to eat or drink today for me. I have an upper gi at 5 am to make sure there is no leak.

Wow Ashleyt26 that is great progress! You Are So Lucky. My recovery is just OK. I have found my one saving grace tonight tho. Doing laps around the surgery unit. Helps with the gas build so much

Walking definitely helps with the gas, I also noticed when I would take a small sip of Water I would burp which helped as well. As of this morning all my gas pain in gone. My largest incision is a lot more tender today than yesterday. And I have decided taking crushed Vitamins is really nasty, but so far I've been able to keep everything down. I also slept almost all night, with a few exceptions of having to use the restroom.

I struggled yesterday, so they kept me an extra day. Should be going home shortly. Definitely didn't enjoy the pain and nausea, but today has been good so far! Congratulations everyone!!!

I am home. The drastic difference in pain I had the past two days is crazy! I'm finally passing gas. I think I did pretty good with getting fluids in. Not 64 Oz though. I'm definitely gonna try harder tomorrow. But I am definitely still very weak. How people go to work like a week after surgery beats me. I'm taking 5 weeks off.

      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.
