Sleeved today, Aug 29th



Recommended Posts

Hey guys, well I've been a member for a long time but haven't posted until now. I had my sleeve done this morning at about 11 a.m. and I'm feeling great. Honestly, after reading some of the posts here and around the internet and I was getting a bit nervous. I'm happy to report that everything went well and I'm actually feeling pretty good. I was pretty days so it took me awhile to come around and feeling nauseous they had to give me some zofran. When I got to my room I think I hit my pain pump 2 or 3 times and that was it. I was told I probably be staying till Thursday, but hopefully I can get out of here early maybe tomorrow. Honestly, I think I could go home today with no problems but as my wife says just go with the flow. Honestly, I'm a bit upset I waited so long to get this done I've been thinking about it for at least five years. My surgeon was amazing and the staff of the hospital has been incredible. For those of you reading this who are still thinking of getting it done or are on the fence my advice is to go for it. I'll keep this updated and let everyone know how I'm doing in the morning. If anyone has any questions especially those considering the surgery please feel free to let me know, I really want to share my great experience with everyone.

All the best,

Josh

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
