6 days post op

I had the gastric sleeve Monday (1/29) and I really feel ok, my major issue after the surgery is I got my period and I haven't had my period in 3 years due to my birth control and now I can not tell if my bloating is from that or from my actual stomach that just got proved and prodded. I also can not hold any protein down, I can drink water but protein has been a problem. Any suggestions?

Omg!!! She came to see me too I sleeved the 30th and she popped up on the 1st and I haven’t done good with the protein either..


Haha my vsg was on the 24th and mine came the 29th! Crazy!!!


Same here-I got mine the next morning at the hospital. The nurses said it was totally normal. Hang in there! The bloating is probably the swelling from surgery. Mine took a while to go down but once it did, the odd lumps and bumps post surgery in my stomach went away as well. Try sipping bone broth. I bought all this protein power before surgery and I couldn’t stomach any of t post. Only thing that didn’t turn my stomach was chicken bone broth. It’ll get better!
