Just had my surgery on Monday February 3rd. Not so bad. Just sore and need to heal. Can’t drink a lot as before for it will come back up. Taking liquid pain relief and some kind of products for input now. Good luck guys

Thanks for updating! Are you still in the hospital? If I remember correctly you had surgery in Mexico, right? Hope you are convalescing a bit before you have to travel. Good luck!!

I was scheduled for 22nd. I had my pre-op Testing on Monday. And I got a call yesterday moving my surgery date up to19th. Things are starting to move fast. I start my liquid diet today but decided to go ahead and have Breakfast. I had cream chip beef on toast and a couple of poached eggs along with a grapefruit. Was delicious. Now comes the hard part. But let the journey begin.

@DB in AZ that’s awesome! I’m scheduled for the 19th as well. I’m definitely not looking forward to the pre-op diet but it’s gonna be worth it!

Well I'm back and awake! Dr said everything went well and no pain except some gas on my left side under breast. I've walked twice to help it and just not got my first sip of Water and my tongue thanked me more than anything!

Should be discharged in the morning and off to begin my new ways

I'm glad its over, I had all types of paranoid thought, lol so uncalled for :)

good lucl this month for the rest of you!

They are keeping on a pretty good regimen of pain meds; so maybe I'll stay semi pain free!

So far they are allowing me Water to make sure I can keep things down (30Ml of water 4x an hour) mentally I know its time or passed time for food lol but this water helped my dry mouth so I'm satisfied ;)

For now lol

@JettK that’s good to hear about the pain. Do you feel like you are able to get the Water down in the time they have set for you?

Had my surgery yesterday! Everyone has been wonderful! Two more days in the hospital, and then I'm going home.

Feel a little nauseous and tender in places. On the whole I feel ok.🌞

      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? 🤷‍♀️
