walk, walk, walk then go on a walk

sorry that not much help but the movement helps move the gas. it can take from a few days to a week or more to get it all out and then every time you eat or drink you swallow air and it starts over again.

I promise it gets better just hang in there.

Walking, drinking my Clear Liquids, and Gas Z strips (it won't help the shoulder pain, but did help my gut gas).

Shoulder pain is usally from,leftover gas from surgery pooling up under your diaphragm. You get the referred pain in your left shoulder. I could go into a 15 minute tutorial on Embreology, anybody want to hear it? Nope didn't think so, leftover from the way you developed before birth, that's why you feel diaphragm pain in your shoulders, usually left and fall bladder pain is in upper right back and shoulder. The Bible says in Psalms that we were strange and wonderously made and the Psalmist knew what he was talking about.
There are a lot of weird feelings and twinges you'll feel after surgery but in the kind run they don't count for,much, what does matter is fittness, better health, loss of weight,, and a happier outlook on life. And lessenng of the problems obesity brings, a win win situation. You are young enough your skin will smooth out and snap back into shape. At 72 I'll have so much skin I'll look like a Shar Pei, but better a live Shar Pei than lying dead in a casket. Besides people love and pay a lot of money for Shar Peis. I could win a blue ribbon in the Recycled People Show.😨💤

      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? 🤷‍♀️
