So here’s a new for you or not. So as of today I’m 3 weeks post surgery and have steadied the course as far as diet is concerned. Haven’t touched the ice cream since and I’m good with it! But here’s my new or rather on-going dilemma. I’m still getting stomach pain from just about everything I put in my mouth. It could be Water, the Protein Shakes, the plain mashed potatoes I’ve been allowed to eat, soft steam veggies. Anything that goes in within seconds of hitting my gut, I get pain. Now it’s not horrific or debilitating at all and goes away after a few minutes but I’m wondering, is this how it’s going to be for the rest of my life? Takers anyone?

by the way, thanks again to all who responded to my previous post. I cut the sweets (well, all I’ve had is ice cream) out!!!

I had the same thing! It then progressed to throwing up everything...food first and then everything. I went on for further testing and had to have my gallbladder removed. Don’t wait, follow up and get some further testing if you need it. Good luck!

I also 3 weeks out and I was having the same thing. And then the other day, it just stopped. No more pain when I eat or drink. Can you call your surgeon and mention it?

      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.
