Well all in all my surgery was pretty text book. my doctor was very happy with my liver. He said it was pretty and small he was impressed. The pain hasn't been bad either I haven't had anything stronger then tyenol. I am feeling much better today then i had been. If i could get this little pointy ball of gas out of my chest i would be feeling pretty normal. I am however tired still and trying to get my Protein in today im sure will be hard but i must do it. Hope everyone else is doing well.

:pray2:

Well done gilliebean! You sound like you are having a great recovery. I was really sore on day 1 and 2, but today is much better. I'm also still having issues with gas, but it seems to be moving now!

Keep in touch!

Gillibean, I'm sure you have a very pretty liver! What qualifies for a pretty liver anyhow? LOL. Glad to hear everything went well!

Thistledo, you will feel more human soon, I promise! It's amazing what a difference one day makes. Each day you will feel better than the one before. It's been 1 week and 1 day since my surgery and if you told me last week how good I would be feeling today, I would never believe you. It gets better, just keep pushing through it!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
