Recommended Posts

I had surgery on the 7/11 and was supposed to have my post op on 7/19 but didn't make it cuz I ended up back in hospital.. But long story short I had it today so a little over two weeks.. But I'm down 27lbs.. I notice it in my legs and arms and face but barely in my stomach area even tho I notice it in the way my clothes fit.. Regardless I'm so happy I made the right decision!! Thanks everyone on here for helping me with my journey along the way!!

Wow, that's awesome, 27 pounds already? I can't wait to get my surgery ! I'm looking at probably September .

Hey guys, my surgery was April 12th and felt compelled to tell you all... it slowly gets better and stop obsessing over the scale. It WILL come off and when it does it happens FAST. Concentrate on getting in your nutrition so you feel human. Its tough and for the first month I almost regretted the decision to have surgery but now Im 65lbs lighter and am finally getting a bit of energy back. Good luck to you all!

I am 5 days post op gastric bypass. I am regretting having done this surgery. I feel horribly ill (lots of diarrhea) and the pain is still lingering. As soon as I sip a Protein shake it goes right through me. I am getting depressed as I can not leave the house in case of an accident. Has anyone else experienced this? Feeling defeated

@@inkdcosmoqueen, Congratulations! An awesome first weigh-in sure makes you feel good about your WLS, doesn’t it?? Even if you did have a rough time of it at the beginning, I am glad you are staying positive and seeing the results you are hoping for! I hope it is smoother for you and just as successful the rest of the way!

      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.
