Am I ever going to wake up feeling good?
GoldenFemale replied to Caycee's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was feeling really tired and irritable after surgery and started getting weak and fuzzy feelings. I got blood tests done at my GP and realised I was low on vitamin D. I started taking that as well as taking multivitamins (centrum advanced or pregacare) as excellent amounts of vitamins in these and within a few days I felt full of energy again. Also I started drinking more fluids as was not taking in enough water. Feel great now! I'm now 5 weeks post op 30lbs down -
Wondering if I'll be successful
GoldenFemale replied to lovemyself86's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hi I too had surgery 14th January in the UK. I've lost 23lbs as of today (in one month) so I'm happy with that. I have been sticking to mainly protien, mushy vegetables ensuring I chew well and I've been fine. I also have low sugar Cereal like bran flakes or weetabix with 1% milk or fat free yoghurt/Greek yogurt and puréed fruit. I also eat banana now well chewed or course. I notice if I focus on drinking more I lose more. It's difficult sometimes but trying. Exercise I walk at the on my treadmill maybe two-four times a week. Only started this 2 weeks ago. Walking now uphill and a bit for faster for about 30 mins. I would love to start Zumba sometime soon, just wanted to be a little lighter before I go as I am a little shy. You all seem to be doing really well so well done! -
Hi All, I got sleeved 14th Jan and so far feeling great. Lost in total 16lbs so really happy with that. Trying to get all my liquids and protein in but can be challenging. Feel like the bad days are over (1st few days) and now it just gets better and better... Love my new sleeve.
