This is great news. Really motivating. Thanks for sharing. I'm on liquids today and tomorrow. I have a headache. I just want to go to sleep. It's too early though

I had a headache from the pre op liquid diet also. I thought it was probably because I stopped coffee and caffeine cold turkey. I think I looked online for natural ways to get rid of a headache. Look online can't remember now what I did. What state are you in? I am in California and had my surgery through Kaiser Insurance. Just try to sleep and continue to picture yourself healthy and all the wonderful things that are going to happen. I wrote a list and put everything I could think of. Down to shaving my legs and other places also lol. You are almost there!!!! Good luck to you..

My parents grew up in Inglewood back in the 40's until the mid 60's. Get some sleep if possible..

My sleeve was 4-19. Doing good as far as I can tell. Drinking Water and Protein Drinks. Looking forward to creamed Soups. Not much appetite though, which is a PLUS

It was postponed until 4/ 25.. I'm disappointed. I was ready, physically mentally and emotionally. Now I can't seem to get it together... How are you doing?

Just wondering how you're doing. Hope all went well and you're feeling good!

I was sleeved on the 19th. The first 2 days in the hospital were a little miserable but once I got home, I felt so much better. I haven't had to use any of my pain or nausea medications so I am counting myself truly blessed! I'm taking things one day at a time, have my one week post op appointment tomorrow plus I get to start puréed foods. I am totally looking forward to that! (NEVER thought I'd say that!) good luck to all!

I had surgery on 4/26. I got to leave after one night and come home. Also have a horrible headache that won't go away. Aside from being constantly sleepy, I feel okay.

Y'all, I got sleeved 4/19 and I'm down 12 lbs so far from surgery day! I'm still pretty sore, but I have been back to work for 2 days. I'm on purees finally, so I can finally eat and feel full for a few hours. Best decision of my life.

I'm so hungry and I was worried! So it is good to know you felt hungry also. Did you have trouble staying awake after surgery?

Yes. When I was on Clear Liquids, I couldn't stay awake for anything. Once I slept through the night for 15 hours straight.

I was sleeved yesterday in Richmond, va, everything went great. I had gas really bad for an hour then it went away. They had me up walking every 2 hours all night so I'm tired and have a headache

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
