Hello everyone. I am new to this site. Just had my sleeve done on the 12th. I feel like I'm doing alright. A lot of painful air bubbles and pretty tired still but working through it.

All I can think of is food...not necessarily bad food, just food in general. I can't wait to be able to chew something!!! Anyone else??

I had my sleeve on the 12th as well. Still lots of gurgling, etc but no pain. Honestly I'm struggling to get in my liquids so much that I haven't thought of food at all yet. I'm preparing myself for the emotional attacks down the road over what I can and can't eat. The results will keep us motivated!

Had my surgery on 7/13. Still a lot of gas pain here ! Not thinking about food yet, just having trouble trying to sip all my liguids. Still really weak. But each day I do see a small improvement.

I was sleeved on the 15th and the gas pains are really getting to me. My Dr. said to sit straight up while drinking, it helps sometimes but the gas still creeps back up. I've been walking on and off all day, my husband and I went to the grocery store and walked for about 40 mins or so then we went to a few more places the gas is still present, I hope it gets better.

I can't wait to chew something either, I'm 1 week post-op today and this liquid diet isn't cutting it but I'm loving the results so far so I'm going to just tough it out another week until I can start my puréed/mushy stage

      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? 🤷‍♀️
