One of the things I find so amazing on this site is how each surgeon has a different protocol. I know each patient is different eg: age, height, weight etc... but there are so many different versions lol. Are you doing well with getting down your liquids? I was told that can be the hardest. My doctor wants me to get down 64oz a day by constantly taking small sips. I was told dehydration is a huge concern with this surgery.

Yes, the liquid part is hard......easier to get my Protein than my liquid....slowly getting there...about 50 oz a day need to step it up a bit....

You’ve got this! I had my gastric bypass on Friday morning and was feeling good enough to be released on Saturday early afternoon. Some pain but it’s manageable and I am able to get my Fluid and Protein goals met with no problems. 😊

Wow I'm so happy for you. I go for my surgery next Monday. I have 2 weeks of only fluids after surgery no Protein Shakes. Only Water, broth or Jello. This preop is harder since my stomach now can hold obviously a lot more then it will postop. I'm not going to lie I'm hungry im just trying to stay busy and not think about it....

Awww anytime please don't hesitate to reach out. As someone whose been under anesthesia more times then I would like to remember no worries. I always say it's the best sleep I've ever had. Lol. Everything is going to be ok. Try to concentrate on all of the positive things. At the end of the day all of what you are going through now will make you a better you. Like I said earlier reach out anytime everyone needs support.😁

Means sooo much, I guess it’s the lack of support that makes it a bit more difficult also I hav rapid heart beats for no specific reason and although I was cleared by a cardiologist I’m still afraid.My surgeon says he goes by my cardiologist clearance, I thank u very much for ur kind words n support 😌🙏🏼

If your cardiologist cleared you I'm sure you're fine. Remember focus on the positive only.....

      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? 🤷‍♀️
