If you have a nausea patch behind your ear, that could be the culprit! Those things gave me blurry vision and I got terrible headaches from the blurry vision. So that could MAYBE be it?

I had my vsg on July 17th and just this past Monday, I noticed I can drink a lot more water at once..seriously even more than I could drink Sunday night! Its true that things really do change over night!! Its not a huge chug, but I can drink half of a 16.9 fl oz bottle at once! and it feels great!

Congrats! And I know its hard to get it all in, but it gets better..I'm 40 days out (I have a ticker on my phone) and its so much easier now than it was at first!

Thanks y'all! I will try some of these things and look for more recipes online!

I need some meal ideas..I am so burnt out on everything I've had so far. chicken has been my go to food, but I need different things or different ways to cook chicken? I'm 5 weeks and 2 days post op, so I can eat solids now. Any ideas? I really want the weight to start coming off more! I think my stall just broke, down 3 more lbs but I want more to come off! Thanks!

So, how many carbs, calories, etc. Are we supposed to have after the sleeve? I am 300lbs, 5ft 4 1/2 and female. So do those things matter? Also, what are we supposed to count mostly, carbs or calories or both? I just want to be a little smarter when it comes to knowing what to keep track of. I know I should already know these things, but...help? Please & thank you!

Hahaha..I love this!

I will be 5 weeks out tomorrow, and I am also very moody and b*tchy. I hope it goes away soon..I don't mean to be mean or hurt anyones feelings and I know I am not the nicest thing right now.

So, I will be 5 weeks out on Tuesday 8/21. I have noticed that I have gained an appetite back..and I can eat anything I feel like I might want to try. (Still not eating fried or fast foods, though) I drink sweet tea. Water hurts and instantly nauseates me Crystal light burns my throat. I even feel like sometimes I over eat. I just feel like a huge failure right now. I'm super emotional and moody. I eat throughout the day, too..little bits at a time. Anyone else feel this way? And my scale is messed up, just bought it at Target and its totally off, even after setting it. So I don't know my weight. Ugh. I wanna cry All comments & feedback appreciated! Just don't be mean, please!

Yep, the nausea patch caused major blurred vision for me. I read about it and took it off. Too bad I have a 50 dollar box of the patches, that I never even opened. :/

Glad I'm not the only one! It hurts going down and its just not the same refreshing water like it use to be. Its kinda sad..I use to enjoy a cold bottle of water but not anymore. I even try room temperature and it still hurts. Crystal light scratches my throat so I don't know. Hopefully this will get better, seeing that I'm only 3 weeks post op.
