How are you all doing? What are you eating in a day? I'm drinking some Protein, eating some nonfat yogurt, some Soup and that's about it. Oh and Water. Water. Are you sleeping, I'm struggling.

My diet has progressed to full liquids and I'm able to tolerate, SF Jello, SF pudding with added Protein, puréed creamy Soups with added Protein, SF popsicles, yogurts, natural applesauce and Protein shakes.

I am doing fairly well, no longer taking pain meds and able to tolerate my diet without N&V. Went to the market yesterday and walked around for 40 minutes. I have 16 staples which get removed Thursday this week but must say getting around pretty good.

How is your recovery progressing?

I'm doing well. I see my Dr on Wednesday. I, too, went to the market yesterday. First time I was out. No more pain meds and no problems tolerating anything. I'm anxious to see the Dr to affirm I'm progressing. I've no staples, I'm glued, boy am I itchy.

I have heard many others say they are itchy as well. That's usually a sign of healing so that maybe a good sign that your body is healing. Wishing you much success on this journey, happy you are doing well.

Hi! I was sleeved 2/10 in Boston. I'm having some struggles that I wondered if y'all were having or experienced at any point? I'm trying to drink Water a lot. I'm dehydrated & feeling the gross affects of that, so that doesn't make it any easier. Though I'm seeing the scale tick down everyday, I'm still having mental issues with missing food. I occasionally experience cravings for foods that I probably should never eat again (mostly carbs). I'm a carbaholic. Anyone in this boat?

Hi skinny mini. I was sleeved on 2/23. I'm doing well still on all Clear Liquids as per my doctor. I am also having the worst cravings. My family is eating and cooking and the smell in the house is driving me crazy. I am encouraged because my total weight loss from highest wt to know is -30 pounds.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
