Sleeved on 12/23. I was on a break from my doctoral studies. I started back up on the 1st. I am having a hard time getting back in the swing of school. I assume it is residual anesthesia and healing. Did anyone delay school after sleeving? Not sure if I should take a break or knuckle through.

Has anyone undergone a sleeve that has Hashimoto's thyroiditis? I have been diagnosed for 7years. Never fully under control. How did you weight loss journey go? I don't eat serious amounts of food and concerned weight loss will be marginal.

I am out 9 weeks and down 35lbs. In the last month my hips have started bothering me walking and during sex. I never had issues preop and my activity is at the same level. Anyone else have postop ortho issues? -

How long do you wait to drink after eating?
Mama Spike replied to smithpy's topic in WLS Veteran's Forum
30 minutes after the meal is my doctors order. Sometimes I take a few sips if I feel thirsty. -
Ok. The iron and more fluids did not help me. I am headed to the store today to try the avocado oil. Any other suggestions. They are starting to be bloody.
