Gaining weight pre-op, intentionally!!!
delchera replied to ursieursie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doctor made it clear he would not do the surgery if I gained weight so I behaved myself. It was hard but worth it. -
I am two weeks post op and just now I am getting a sharp pain in my right side under my breast and at the top of my rib cage. Any thoughts? Anyone have this?

Six small meals a day is what I was told. -
Hungry, or not...after surgery
delchera replied to SpiceyMom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am only one week out and I would not say I have felt hunger but my stomach gurgles a lot. Easter was actually easy because I wasn't hungry at all. My NOSE was hungry but my stomach wasn't. -
Band Removed!!!...Sleeve Approved...but postponed!
delchera replied to Yorkie Fan's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
One week post op for the sleeve here and I would tell you emphatically to GO ON YOUR TRIP. The recovery time is a little longer than people led me to believe and I would hate for this trip of a lifetime to be ruined for you because of nausea and gas pain. -
Having Sleeve surgery May 2nd!!!!!!!!!!!!
delchera replied to MSanti's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
The pain from the actual surgery is not bad. The pain from the GAS that needs to get out of your system from the blowing up of your abdomen to the anesthesia gas is the WORST. I am one week post op and the gas pains still hurt. Do a lot of walking. Even though it hurts, the movement will work out the gas quicker. -
Day 2 of Liquid diet and co-workers are eating ribs
delchera replied to Husky2Healthy's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I only had to do one day of clear liquids. The two weeks leading into my surgery I had to do low fat, NO CARBS. I never could have done two weeks of liquids prior to the surgery but now that I am post op, liquids aren't that bad.......hang in there. I think your MD may be overly cautious with the liquids so long before the surgery. -
I have wasted several hundred dollars trying to find a protein powder that is palatable. The only one I found that is acceptable came from GNC. It is called Pro Performance AMP. I got it in chocolate and it is ok. I know I am not getting enough protein in daily and it worries me but I do have faith that as I adjust to the sleeve, it can and will get better. Hang in there.

How many days post op did it take everyone to feel like the anesthesia was worked out of their body? I got pain and nausea and I am two days post op.
