November sleevers here



Recommended Posts

I'm today at 1pm. Long morning so far. I'm starving and kinda weak/tired from Clear Liquids only. Have a pretty decent headache. It's 7:30 am and don't need to leave for hospital until 11:15. Think I'll quilt a bit and keep my mind off. My husband is making sausage and eggs and I am having hard time with smell I'm so hungry LOL. I'm not nervous YET. Just want it over with. I'm keeping positive.


Keep positive, your almost there !! Good luck today .

Hi BunnyJean,

I go in at 2 pm to have surgery at 4 pm. Weirdly I'm not hungry, just thirsty. Had to give up the Water at 10 am. I'm not really nervous either. I made my list and checked it twice.. I'm 100% packed and showered... I just need to get dressed. Good luck with your surgery.. We've got this!!:784_peace:

I got sleeved November 6th. Yay! Stayed one night in the hospital. Feeling pretty great. The only thing I emphasize is sip slowly and tiny amounts of fluids. When I didn’t I would throw up and trust me that is not pleasant!
Congrats to all fellow November sleevers!

First full day home after surgery. The pain is tolerable. The only issue I’m having is fluids. While in the hospital I was sipping fluids with no problem now fast forward & I cant get anything down without severe chest pain. I’ve managed to keep it down which is a chore in itself. I spoke with the nurse practitioner today and she told me to focus on things with electrolytes in them and since I was able to get a popcicle down with minimal pain she suggested I make freezer pops out of propel...etc so I gave it a try and I’m now able to get fluids down as l was worried about dehydration. However if things don’t improve I would need to go in...so hopefully this issue will resolve itself soon!!! Also good luck to everyone getting sleeved today!!!❤️

First full day home for me; had surgery on the 7th. Doing well I think and getting fluids in ok and without too much discomfort. Hoping things settle for you quickly. Wishing you well.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
