Calling all October sleevers!!



Recommended Posts

Day 3 post op. First night was uncomfortable in high dependency but morphine helped. Once settled things improved. Had the x Ray to check for leakage the next day which was fine. Free fluids end of day two and onto liquid food day three and now home. Sore in places but not needing any pain relief. Had no issues with banything really, just taking things slowly when eating/drinking. Fingers crossed everything keeps going as is. Did remember thinking WTF am I doing as the they prepared to anthestise me but no regrets so far. Good luck to anyone with a imminent surgery date 👍

Other than being careful to sip slow and be mindful of incisions things are going well...

So good to see how great all who got operated this month are doing. Tomorrow it will be me, am actually feeling calmer than I was yesterday, let's see how I feel tomorrow. My Dr said I can take something he prescribed for anxiety before heading to hospital tomorrow which won't be until 2 pm CET. I will post from the 'other side.'

Well guys today is the day, in about 8hrs I'll be checking in at the hospital to have my surgery. I'm very anxious but also excited because I know this is life changing but I've never had any kind of operation before so it's scary for me. Best wishes to you all and the start of this new stage in our life !

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
