On my way to the hospital



Recommended Posts

Having my sleeve this morning here in Houston, have to be there 5:30am. As of this morning I've lost 38 lbs since starting all the prep testing and whatnot. Ive checked off all my to-do items so I guess that means I'm as prepared as I can be. Wish me luck!

How are you doing buddy?

Guys it's been tough. I've been puking and the pain is crazzzzzzy.




Sorry to hear you're having a rough time! I had dry heaves in the hospital and was given something for nausea. That helped a lot. I had some pretty decent pain from a deep stitch that I had. I imagine you have told a dr or nurse about your pain and nausea. I have no advice but am sending you positive vibes and best wishes! Hang in there!

Its been really rough. Lots of nausea and dry heaving (which makes my incisions hurt a lot). They have tried like 5 different meds and now its toned down but not gone. Finally getting in some broth since I only had ice chips up till now.

I heard from a lot of people day two is worse and I am praying that's not true for me. Thanks for the thoughts and well wishes, I can use all the help I can get.

I'm doing much better. They finally got my naseoua under control and that made all the difference. I was released last night and was excited to be home

But of course now Houston is expecting a hurricane and my well laid out recovery plan has gone out the window. I have to figure out where I'm willing to evacuate to since the roommates who were going to be my caretakers this week are leaving town. Perfect timing!

So other than all this drama I'm trying to focus on my liquids and staying hydrated. I dont know what full feels like yet so still not pushing things. Glad to hear you are doing better.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
