Before surgery my diabetes pills (metformin) always made my tummy upset and I’d have to run to the restroom several times a day. I would take phone calls for a business and sometimes I’d get the urge in the middle of a call and have to disconnect and bolt to the restroom. At first I would refuse to go to the bathroom on the same floor that I worked on and would go to the first or second floor but it got to the point where I knew I wouldn’t make it so I’d just go on the floor I worked on. I would flush the toilet as I was going to make myself feel less embarrassed about it lol. After surgery I don’t have that issue I’ll get dumping syndrome without the “dumping” but I also take the BariatricPal prenatal Vitamins with probiotics(a month after buying I found out there was a normal one with Probiotics but decided to stick with prenatals for the folic acid and b12). My mother(had rny also) still has to bolt to the restroom frequently. Hopefully it gets better or goes away soon!

I have a bacterial infection called C.diff picked up at the hospital. I'm on antibiotics so hopefully it will fully clear up soon.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
