Spent the day in recovery because there weren't any beds available on the Surgical ICU. Surgery at 7:30 - woke up in agony and major nausea at around 12:30. My Mom and Man came in to see me at 1:30 but felt so horrid I told them to head home. They were waiting since 6am. Anyway - feel much better. Very little gas. Some acid or that kind of uncomfortable feeling/pain. I'm hitting the Dilaudid button a fair amount. Sat up for a while in recovery and now in a room and took a walk (just 1 lap for now!). Thanks for thinking of me and for your prayers.

How are you feeling today? Do you get to go home? I am two weeks ahead of you and graduated from full liquids to soft foods today (and, with my surgeon's ok, went for my first post-op jog). So far, so good! Every day gets easier!

      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.
