I was sleeved on 10/20/16 and was. Rey fatigued for 4-6 weeks. I did go out and walk every day though. What you are feeling is normal as your body is healing and adjusting to the "new normal." It DOES get better! I no longer have that fatigue. Hang in there! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Any October 2016 Sleevers?
CarenL replied to bkskinny's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm also doing good. My sleeve was done on 10/20/16. I am down 35 lbs so far. Actually lost one pound over the holidays which I am thrilled about. At least I didn't gain! SW 205 CW 170. My goal is around 140. I am now back on track for further weight reduction. Happy New Year everyone! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

When to start logging food?
CarenL replied to StephanieS0208's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Hi Stephanie. I had me WLS on 10/20 and did not start logging my food until two days ago. I am currently on puréed foods until next Tuesday. I use MyFitnessPal app. It was eye opening to see that I'm not eating enough. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Right now I'm looking towards Thanksgiving and what I will eat. At that time I will be 5 weeks out from WLS and on soft foods. Moist turkey! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

I was just placed on Bariatric Advantage dissolvable capsules. They break down in your throat - you can't feel it. Also a Calcium citrate chew. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My dr prescribed famitodine (Pepcid) which helps most of the time. Also he just started me on a multi Vitamin and chewable Calcium. That is supposed to cost the stomach. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App *coat the stomach Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Anxiety and depression
CarenL replied to bluenena2016's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had that regretful thought "what have I done?!" The two days after surgery but it really does get better. I am a little over 3 weeks out from surgery and down 21 lbs. THAT is my motivation! When friends and family ask how I am, I always say "Better than the day before" because that's the truth! It does get better!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

I am 4'11" and weighed 197 at surgery date of 10/20/16. I am now 175 but I haven't been recording anything I eat or drink. What are you all using to record what you ingest? Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm 3 weeks post op and on puréed foods now. I keep saying each day is better than the day before. Hardest for me is my energy level. But down 21 pounds so far and that keeps me motivated. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
