I'm still having pain and taking pain meds. I can tolerate the pain, except my blood pressure goes up significantly when I have pain and gives me the worst head ache. I'm going to have to request a refill.

I'm sick of Protein shakes, but still sipping a bit each day. I prefer chicken broth with unjury Protein added.

Been able to get in more Water yesterday and today. Probably still not enough though. Also drinking some crystal light and G2, and having Popsicles and hello occasionally. Oh, and ate some yogurt yesterday, but I don't like yogurt much so it's hard to eat.

Can't wait to eat some stage 2 foods. Thinking of making a chicken or tuna salad in my vita mix so I can eat that. Next week. My doctor said I could try a scrambled egg on day 10 and then some fish if the egg is tolerated. Looking forward to it.

Oh I'm sorry you're still in pain! I hope it's better for you soon. And yeah, it is super hard to get liquid in. I keep worrying about dehydration. And oh my God an eggs sounds so good. When do you see your doctor next?

How is everyone doing?

I've been off pain meds since Christmas Day, but yesterday started getting a bad pain on my right side at my upper rib cage. Just talked to nurse and she said it could be an internal stitch there that I pulled or aggravated. Might be taking pain meds again if it gets worse.

On a positive side I'm down 12 pounds since surgery! Yay!

Congrats on the weight-loss! But I'm sorry you're still in pain. Hopefully it heals quickly! I feel great, as far as pain. I've been off pain meds since the 22nd. I'd rate it may be a two out of 10, it really doesn't hurt except when I switch positions. I'm able to lay on both sides, and flat on my back. My main problem has been that my throat is still super sore, and I know it's nothing other than pain from intubation. It's slowly getting better but it's super frustrating. I feel it on the side of my face and it's just very blah. On the upside, getting required fluids in his gotten easy, I have a doctors appointment tomorrow hoping to move onto soft foods. Im down about 15 from surgery. I wish you guys the best!

Congratulations!

Sorry about the throat pain. I never had any which I was very surprised by.

I have had a strange feeling of being strangled around my neck. Finally figured out it was from gas so taking gas meds more regularly.

Hi! How are ya doing on full liquids? What does your daily menu entail? I was excited yesterday I finally met my liquid and Protein intake but I feel like I maybe doing too much. Mind you when I drink my shake it takes over an hour before I finish the whole thing. I find myself with a Water bottle at all times. I am just curious what everyone is eating. 10 days post op down 11 lbs since surgery.

My daily menu is nothing exciting. I usually have a Protein Shake and a half, and then something of the Soup variety for dinner. I've been digging light creamy Soups, because they have a lot of flavor. I don't think I've been doing 64 g and 64 ounces, but I've been doing about 50. That's what my doctor suggested. I have my 10 day postop tomorrow, and I'm probably going to be cleared for soft foods. I can't wait!

Not much at all. Maybe 2 oz worth. I haven't been particularly measuring, I've just been making sure I'm paying attention to how my stomach feels. Not much at all, though.

      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.
