December 5th Surgery Date



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved, today. It went well. I was a little nauseous when waking up. That lasted for a couple of hours. Incision pain is only noticeable when I sit up. I had gas pain in my right shoulder but my first walk fixed that almost instantaneously. Currently on my second little pixie cup of Water. 1 cup per hour for three hours. Water never tasted so good. ???? My mouth and lips were so dry.

Something strange. The nurse in recovery offered me a saltine cracker. ???? Honest mistake. I guess I assumed they would be more familiar with my post surgery diet.

I was discharged yesterday. I feel tired today. I didn't get much sleep last night. Incision pain is mild, I haven't taken anything for pain since I went to bed last night. I also didn't realize I would have to give myself shots to avoid blood clots, twice a day. Hoping I feel a little better tomorrow.

Hi Rainbow2015......my surgery went really great. So glad to hear you are doing well. I had tremendous gas pain though and I walked as much as I could but it is now going away. My incisions hurt a bit... I have 6 and the one that hurts the most is the bigger one underneath my left breadt. But I'm giving it time to heal. I can't wait to see results in a couple of months. We will be here to motivate each other.

Dknal2, how did your surgery go?

Yes ma'am.. we are gonna be here to motivate each other. I think at the one month mark we should post before and after photos and do so every month until goal is reached.

@@Dknal2, yes, I'm excited. I look forward to seeing your progress on here as well as sharing mine.

I can't wait for this weak feeling to go away. As people keep telling me, "one day at a time".

I hope all goes well for you tomorrow. Try to get some sleep tonight because I had a horrible time sleeping in the hospital. I was exhausted by the time I was discharged and didn't get some real sleep until I was home. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers tomorrow. ????????

1 week post-op, down 9 lbs. I had also lost 10 lb between my pre-op visit and the day of surgery. My CW is 340. Four years ago I lost 80 lbs then I started school and gave up, gained it all back, became pregnant and gained back more. My weight when I had lost that 80 lbs was 313. I regret getting rid of all my "smaller" clothes because I will need them soon. My sister lost 100 lbs this year and gave me a bunch of her bigger pants but her big pants were size 18/20. Right now I'm in 26/28. I'll need to research a place that sales cheap pants.

Congrats@ Rainbow2015... I am weighing myself on Friday the 16th because I weighed myself this past Friday. I lost 9 lbs since surgery as of Friday ( surgery was dec 5). My starting weight was 242 lbs and day of surgery 219 lbs. So , prior to surgery, I lost 23 lbs plus the 9 more since surgery is total 32 lbs. I can't wait to see if there is any progress on Fri. I will certainly let you know.

      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.
