Late-Feb sleevers
Msoptimistic2118 replied to bronzemeatloaf's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Today makes 5 weeks since surgery and I feel stuck too. I've been sitting at 201/202 for 2weeks. I guess it's normal. It's also discouraging, but hang in there. -
Is feeling tired normal?
Msoptimistic2118 replied to justagirl77's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm so glad it's not just me. I was dead tired when I returned to work last week. I fell asleep at my desk and slept during lunch. My surgery was on Feb 1st and the doctor finally let me have coffee this week. I also started taking vitamin B12. This week has been better. I think it just takes time. -

Omg I took some GasX chewables and the pain is gone!!! Sweet relief! Thanks for the correct diagnosis. I haven't had any side pains. Are you sleeping wrong? -

Yes they did. I still do it at home too. I just wanted to make sure it's normal. Yes, I pass gas regularly. -
The struggle is real!
Msoptimistic2118 replied to EndlessGoals#2018's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm so sorry that you're struggling. I feel your pain. I am a week post op and I'm experiencing hunger pains even when im not hungry. Try magnesium citrate for constipation. I hope it helps. I hated the lemon flavor but the grape is ok. -

Anyone having pain in the ribcage area when they inhale deeply? Also, anyone having non stop hunger pangs/pains even when full? This is affecting my sleep. Sleeved 2/1/18. -

We'r almost twinsies! I was sleeved on 2/1/18. I am so grateful that I can keep down my protein and all my liquids. My only issues at this point is hunger pangs/pains and lack of bm since before surgery. I'm sure I'll overcome these challenges. I'm just so happy that I haven't experienced any nausea. I think finding this forum will be encouraging. I wish you and everyone continued success on this journey. -
