Cococat 119 Posted October 24, 2014 I was sleeved on Sept. 10th by Dr. Bass from Ft. Myers/Naples. No complications. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bouff 16 Posted October 24, 2014 I was sleeved on Sept. 10th by Dr. Bass from Ft. Myers/Naples. No complications. Congratulations, I am so happy for you. 6 weeks out you must be almost normal again. How is the weight loss going? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cococat 119 Posted October 24, 2014 You will be happy with Dr. Bass and his support personnel. I never was all that "normal." I am doing well. I am a bit tired. I find it hard to get all my Protein and liquids in. Have lost about 33 pounds, depending on how constipated I am on any given day. I can tell you that getting up out of a chair is a lot easier than it used to be. I have an arthritic knee which limits how much I can exercise. I know if I exercised more, I would lose more. But, I do what I can and I am walking more. Sleeve gastrectomy is something that changes a lot about one's life. Expect changes. Things will never get back to "normal." I did not like my "normal."

I have had Constipation problems since starting my pre-surgery diet I was going to ask Doc if adding some metamucil to Water would be helpful. I don't want to deal with that and everything else. Are you back to any form of solid foods yet, I am glad I had my knee replaced prior to this so I can walk. But my true exercise is swimming and my rotator cuff needs work. Try Water walking if you can. It really was helpful for me when my knees were messed up. Keep up the good work, do what you can. I want changes, like no more raw anywhere Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
