By the time you read this hopefully you will have already seen your doctor and can drink Water.

As a follow up to my last post: I went in today and got an unfill. Boy am I relieved. He took it all out since I couldn't drink anything either and was vomiting acid every couple hours. He said I should heal for two weeks then get a fill again. He doesn't seem concerned about a slip. My body had gone without Water for two days so it was not used to it anymore. It took me a while to get used to hydration. I won't take liquids for granted anymore....

I am sorry that they couldn't find your port. My doctor always has problems finding mind and it sucks. I always leave with a huge bruise larger than my fist. But it seems very negligent for the other doctor to just poke you without even feeling around to see if it was the correct place.

Good Luck!

This line sort of disturbs me: "I am sore all over and feeling weak but the good news is my new total weight loss is 71lbs!"

I don't see how this is good news that you have lost weight due to starving and being dehydrated. It reminds me of the post somebody made that they only ate two tablespoons of food all day and were excited and somebody congratulated them.

It's not anything to Celebrate. Starving. Throwing up all the time, etc. That's not what the band is for. Sorry.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
