Hey March 1-6 surgery friends! Mine was 2/28. I have my 1 week follow up tomorrow. How are you all feeling?!

I'm pretty sore... 6 days out and haven't really lost any weight. Not sure why, but I'm following the directions to a T! I feel hungry most of the day and not sure why... I am getting 80+ grams of Protein a day and drinking at least 4 ounces per hour sometimes up to 6... and still hungry. I have one incision that is super soar when I sit down or stand or bend over, but hoping that will subside soon. And I do miss my Diet Dr. Pepper!!! How are you feeling?

I had surgery this morning. It went great. The gas pain is the worst. My biggest problem is that I’m coughing up some blood. The nurses think it’s from the intubation. Maybe something was knicked in the back of my throat. I have some small clots and when I cough one up it gags me. Praying it heals quick.

Surgery went well. I have very little pain. No nausea. I had a problem coming out of anesthesia but I was told I might have a autoimmune disorder I have to go for testing 3/25 with my dr. But as for the surgery everything went great and I feel great. Went shopping today for a birthday party I have this weekend.

That’s great that you are getting out an about already! From what I’ve read walking is the key. Well done!

I weighed in at 247 this morning! 🙌🏼🙌🏼 I cannot believe I was 270 just two weeks ago at my pre op appt! Surgery weight (3/7) was 258.8. I know I won’t lose this much this fast all the time, but I will take it when I can get it! 🙏🏼 How are my other early March sleevers doing?

I weighed in at 278 at my preop about 3 weeks ago. My scale had me at 256 (surgery had me at 260) 3/12. My scale has me at 253 today. I’m waiting impatiently for 249. I start full liquids tomorrow. Can start getting in some Protein and off just Powerade and Gatorade.

That’s great! You will hit 249 before you know it (and then wave goodbye as you leave it in the dust!).

      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? 🤷‍♀️
