@@carlissa_RN - sounds like you have found out what you need to get on the road to this fantastic journey.

Your stomach will be loud for a while, and it will be quieter and then all of a sudden get noisy again if its like mine. I am almost 13months post and every once in a while I will hear gurgling and "noises".

Keep posting~

First night was HELL...nausea and vomiting all night. Dizziness, pain, discomfort... couldnt walk. Everytime I wretched from vomiting I would wet the bed and they would have to change everything. I thought I was going to die. YOU ARE NOT ALONE! A week out now I am 70% back to normal... I can walk with an abdominal binder, the pain is fine and the nausea only comes on if I dont have my belly supported well. It gets better, hang in there. sleep as much as you can...thats how I got through the hospital days.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
