How's everyone doing post-op? I just had my surgery yesterday, and other than the scars on my belly and general fatigue, I feel great. Don't know how long that's going to last though!

Surgery 02/08/17..I am doing great. I do low impact workouts like water aerobics amd recumbent bike. I have had no complications! SW 278 preop 268 CW 232. I'm loving the changes to my body and spirit!

I was sleeved 2/9/17 I have had a really tough road, dehydration has been extreme problem for me I have been hospitalized twice due to it. I have had a constant UTI/Bladder/Kidney Infections. Now my sciatica nerve is an issue. I have went from 294 to 256 doctor says I've blown it out of the water but I don't feel like it. I have chosen to see a psychologist because that part is so hard for me. I have actually already started testing myself but I seen it's a problem so trying to overcome. I don't regret it one bit just taking me a little longer to enjoy the effects

I'm going through the same thing. Except I think I'm having severe anxiety along with it. I'm only 12 days out and have been seen twice for dehydration and currently being treated for a kidney infection. I had excruciating pain in my right side. I'm living in a constant state of fear. Like something is going to happen. I'm reaching out to my psych doctor tomorrow. I want to enjoy this but I'm scared to.

Sleeved 2/28/17

Dehydration has not been a problem despite the fact that I find it hard to drink the amount of fluids recommended. My problem is hunger. I'm hungry most of the day and it is NOT "head" hunger. I have stomach pangs and it is totally distracting and discouraging. I try antacids and they sometimes work for short intervals. My NP says that she is surprised, that most of her patients tell her they forget to eat because they are never hungry. Lucky them!!

If you need to get more fluids in, it is very hard with the 30 min before, 60 min after a meal rule. I know the problem well. I am tempted to get one of those rigs that runners use to drink while running, the kind that are on a headset.

Sleeved on the 9th of Feb. very little pain aside from gas pain in left shoulder which passed when drain was pulled. I felt very hungry everyday until I switched from Prilosec to Zantac.

Sleeved 2/7/17, down 55lbs. Normal energy, no complications, walk 4-10 miles per day.

I was sleeved on 3-28-17 and surgery weight was 528. I'm large framed and 6'2". Lap band 3 years ago failed and was removed. On clear liquid diet with 1oz of jello 3 times a day. At first doctor visit 2 weeks later I lost 40 pounds. But have been to weak to walk much and get dry heaves. Not fun! These next 2 weeks is full liquid but I advanced it 1 week and added 2oz of scrambled eggs and have more energy and don't get sick. I hate all protein drinks and used to love the taste but makes me gag now. I get my 64 oz of fluids in and barely 60-80 grams of protein in. Glad I did it but am a bit impatient. My goal weight is 230.

Sleeved 2/8 and down 40lbs! Doing great!
