Two days after surgery!



Recommended Posts

I will say I don't have as much pain as I thought I would. The trapped gas is the worse thing I'm experiencing. I've been walking and using the gas x strips. But still hurts. I am very optimistic. My mother and I actually had the surgery done together :) we are home and recovering together and routing each other on!!

Congrats! I can't wait to get that far... in the beginning stages of it all. I pray that you and your mother have a safe and well rested recovery.

Congratulations! That's cool that you and your mom had the surgery together. I hope your gas pains go away. How's your mom dealing with the gas? Or, if she's having any?

This morning I woke up and they are not as bad :) much more tolerable! My mom actually had no gas pains. The only thing she is struggling with are severe headaches

That's good your pains are getting better. I hope your moms headaches go away soon. Is it hard to get Water down? Wondering if she may be dehydrated...

      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.
