  1. I'm tired too. I run out of steam really easily. I think it has to do with what we are eating, it's not enough yet. I've heard our energy returns after 2-3 weeks. Can't wait to start stage 3 diet. I has sleeve Oct 5th.
  2. Thanks! I decided to call. He said it wasn't high enough to be concerned yet but I needed to take more deep breaths. Use that breathing thing from the hospital.
  3. My doc said a low temp is normal. But I would check with your surgeon to be sure. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Jesus loves you!!!
  4. So I have a slight temp. 99.4. Is this normal? Surgery was on Oct 5th. Any advice? Thank you.
  5. Okay I'll try the acid reducer they gave me. If it helps, definitely. I think I'm getting enough fluids, trying anyway. Managed to get down 3/4 of a protein shake over almost 2 hours.
  6. Yes that must have been it. I actually went down 7 pounds overnight night just from getting the fluids out. 7 pounds! I'm still quite sore but I think the gas is mainly out.
  7. You probably gained weight in the hospital from all the fluids, swelling, gas, etc. so don't be disappointed in what the scale says. It's best to stay off of it for a few weeks.
  8. Good luck! Sent from my SM-N910V using the BariatricPal App Good luck. You'll do great.
  9. Going home from hospital today. Feeling weak but know that's normal. Can't wait to get on the scale. Hope everyone is doing great!
  10. Oh good to know. I don't feel like eating but the grumblies are definitely there. Thank you.
  11. Catnose I thought I was hungry also but it wasn't hunger it was gas pains. After I've done lots of waking its getting better.
  12. On the losers bench! I'm not too bad. Gas pains smart somewhat. Walking every 2 hourz. Was done very late in day. Didn't get a room until 9:30 according to nurse. Groggy from pain meds. Staying an extra day. And I'm hungry! Sheesh! I thought that was supposed to go away. Maybe it's just extreme thirst. Hope everyone else is recovering well.
  13. Thanks. Hope all is going well.
  14. And I'm up at 5:45 am. Maybe that means I can sleep better in hospital. Does walking really help the gas pains? T-minus 7 1/2 hours to surgery. Continued good luck everyone!
  15. A friend of mine called the day of my surgery my new birthday. I really liked that. Good way to look at it.
  16. Thank you! Good luck to you also. Kudos on quitting smoking. That's huge.
  17. Thanks and Good luck!!!!Wishing you the best tomorrow during your surgery and a fast pain free recovery!! I'm right behind you Friday 10/7
  18. My surgery is tomorrow. I got a 1:15 PM time to arrive at the hospital. So late in the day, oh well.
