I had the gastric sleeve done February 25th 2021. I have had little pain. I've been home from the hospital almost a week. Im doing great with the liquid diet im on but I have very little energy. I want to start working out a little but I feel so drained. When will that feeling go away?

yes - it does go away, but it takes a few weeks. Your body is still recovering from the trauma of surgery and you're taking in very few calories, so it'll take awhile before you're feeling peppy again. But...you will!

Me too Kmorrison! My VSG day was 2/23, so I'm just a couple of days ahead of you. Today was the first day that I felt like I had enough energy to take a walk around the block. It felt wonderful and it wiped me out.

We're surgery twins. I had mine on the 25th as well. I feel totally normal as if I didn't even have surgery. I have all my energy back now. Are you taking the B12? It helps. Good luck!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
