calling all December 2016 sleevers!

[QueenBx 63]

I am feeling the same way today just sick and weak. I am trying to take in more liquids and it seems as if no one understands that you can not gulp down everything right away. Hope you feeling better today. Just one day at a time is what I keep telling myself. Going on a walk later on with my kids so hopefully I should feel better.

Yes ma'am .. it takes me all day to get in maybe 20 oz of Water and 12 oz of Protein Drink ( 30 mg). I'm still trying my best. I am still sore and gas pains gone but my belly feels it's really , really small. I have not felt sick since discharge but today I feel really sick and weak today. I became nauseated when I drank some of my Protein Shake and then I just became sick. I will be okay. We both will. We are still healing. I have been able to use bathroom after taking dulcolax. So that's good because I was very constipated. I just don't feel good today

@@Dknal2 I am drinking the Isopure Protein Drinks and omg! It takes me past 8 pm (and I start at 8 am) to finish it. I am still sore and gas pains are still here! Hope you are doing better than me.

@@shelleyhoops I remember this being mentioned from some others and in a preclass I had before. Each week as you move into different phases of eating and life your body will adjust. Don't get frustrated and keep the eye on the prize. It is a marathon and not a sprint and push through those phases! You got this!

Thanks for your reply ???? I was wondering if something had gone wrong and started to wonder if it had all been worth it to be honest! Good to know it's not just me.

Feeling kind of down today, 9 days post op and everything went well but when I step on the scale this morning it said I had gained a # since yesterday.

I think I should avoid the scale for a few days☹️

Mine was on the 14th. It hurts my chest when I take a drink. Not sure if it's the gas or what. And I'm also a bit nauseous and my stomach is very sore. How's everyone doing? I'm struggling to get in enough Water and Protein

Scheduled for 12/20. I had a cold two weeks ago. For the past 3 days, I have a dry cough (similar to how my bronchitis started). Is this going to be an issue?

I had a chest cold about a month before my surgery and my cough still lingers. Use your binder if you have one but also hold a pillow a bit tight over your stomach when you cough and it help tremendously!! Good luck with everything

Thank you. I've been doing gas x strips and walking but it's not really getting rid of the gas. It's like a burning, gurgling, gassy type of feelings. Happens whether I take a drink or not. I also had a major hiatal hernia repair as well.

@@MsShortyDee How did you feel with the blood clot.

I have been in pain since the beginning of the second week. I was fine the first 5 days. But have been suffering since. I had a catscan today but the doctor was not in to review. My surgery was Dec 1st.

Everything else is fine... HW:269, SW:263, CW:246!
