Congratulations to everyone for what you've achieved and what we know you can achieve! I'm 61 and had my surgery August 20, 2024. The weight has been coming off and I've been exercising regularly (Orange Theory Fitness), taking walks, walking the dog, line dancing. The pre-and-post surgery fast can be a challenge but I think it prepares you for next stages. I'm still eating about 2oz/meal. I'm definitely in an exploratory stage as far as playing around with foods and understanding when is too much. I returned to a habit of snacking before bed by eating a small piece of cheese or an ounce of nuts... that was definitely the wrong idea. I paid for that by feeling very uncomfortable. I kicked that habit to the curb quickly. So I'm working on eating dinner earlier and making applesauce the snack. I'm open to ideas. We've got this!

Yes, I'm 60 and had my gastric sleeve surgery last week. Currently in the full liquid phase. Looking for support in my area while preparing to return to work in a couple weeks.

Yes, 'CrazyDogandCatLady", I had the same feeling. Being a diabetic, I think it was more pronounced given I had to watch sugar levels. I had my surgery August 20. I experienced these feelings during pre-and-post Op period. During this post-Op period, I'm currently in the full liquid phase. I'm looking to see if re-introducing soups makes a difference. If anyone is a diabetic, be sure to monitor your sugar levels during these phases.
