    October 17Th'ers.. Where Are Ya?

    Spent day in ER getting hydrated again. I still have to see GI Thurs to get answers on my intake (or lack there of). However, I also have kidney stones. that maybe the cause of the nausea but not so sure of the fluid and food intake. Ill keep y'all posted! Thanks again for the prayers!

    October 17Th'ers.. Where Are Ya?

    I was sleeved 10/17. I have already had to visit the ER for fluids fortunately the Gatorade is keeping hydrated just enough. I am constantly sipping except when I eat if course. I tried going back to fluids but the nausea is better when I eat even the little tiny bit I can. I thought maybe I was just afraid if the consequences if I eat more, but nope I tried and get the uncomfortable feeling and wanted to throw up. I have been casually walking but nothing fierce because my dr told me to wait 4 wks. I'm not nearly as miserable as I was. Last week the nausea was out of control. But I'm def not getting in anything close to what I should be. Thanks for the prayers!

    October 17Th'ers.. Where Are Ya?

    Gee I can't even get 2 oz a DAY let alone at one time. I put everything I had today into mynetdiary and I only had 67 calories, 1 protein, and that includes my fluids (still on Gatorade)! praying nothing is seriously wrong. I see GI on Thursday.
  4. Pre surg 273 Surg day (10/16/12) 257 Today 230 43 total, 27 since surgery Congrats all!!
  5. I'm praying this misery passes. I am nauseas even after 2 bags of fluid yesterday. I've been up since 4am in the pot "losing fluids." I'm only 2 weeks post op but feel like there's no end in site and I made a huge mistake by having this surgery. This is so more emotionally and physically draining than I expected having already had a lap band. Not sure where to turn? ;(

    Feel Like I Made A Mistake

    Exactly! This is definately a challenge. I thought I knew what I was getting into since I had a lap band, but that was wronggggg. Glad everything is going in the right direction! It was a great feeling seeing the look on my pcp dr face when he seen how much weight I lost.

    I'm feeling a little better! I am getting in more fluids, not 64 oz but I'm getting there. I'm still nauseas but I've noticed that it goes away when I eat. Being that I'm only eating 1-2 day I think I need to work on that now.

    16th here down 25 since surgery. Barely getting in 10 oz of fluid, had to go back to liquids to get in fluids, and have to have upper GI to make sure all is well. I'm nauseas but finally got Zofran for that today. I'm looking forward to feeling better. Good luck to y'all! Glad all is well it gives me hope!

    No hernia. I had to have my band removed because it ulcerated. I had to wait 8 weeks for it to heal and I waited 4 months. However, I did have horrible indigestion before my sleeve surgery so maybe it wasn't healed. Dunno.

    Feel Like I Made A Mistake

    My surgeon just called. I have to get an upper GI. he wouldn't give me anything for the nausea. Blah! I have an appt with my pcp tomorrow since my surgeon is in FL and I'm in TX. Hopefully he'll give me something for the nausea. Zofran is the smaller pill right?

    Thank thank you thank you ALL! I'm only doing liquids today and feel a little better. It seems the Popsicle are easier to do than liquids so I've had one whole one between two different times. I also took a Prilosec. Between all that and finally getting in some sleep I feel a little better.

    Can't drink the protein shakes for some reason. Not taking anything for the nausea. I struggle just to get 10 oz of fluids in per day. Dr told me to drink Gatorade which I've been doing. I eat reduced fat feta, pudding, egg salad, and Popsicles. Of course that's minimal.

    My bariatric surgeon is in FL. I have a follow up with one in San Antonio but not for a few weeks. My pcp is Hambrick. The dr I seen in the ER yesterday was super nice his daughter had WLS so he was very knowledgable. The nurse, not so much.

    Fluids

    After spending 4 days in the hospital 3 of them in ICU, I haven't gone to the ER nor do I want to. I am trying my hardest to get more fluids in me, but if you've been sleeved you know you can just suck down a bottle if Gatorade.

    How much fluid are y'all getting in? Just curious because I'm lucky to get 10 oz a day of Gatorade ( that's all I'm drinking per my dr) and I have a new o set of nausea and cramping. I'm thinking dehydration but can't get ahold of dr. ???

    Amen! I'm not trading my food addiction for a scale addiction! Lol
  22. I was sleeved on the 16th I started some soft foods today. I made egg salad with one egg and it was awesome. I have more for tomorrow since I couldn't eat much but it went down great. I chewed and chewed that's the key. Every dr is different my diet doesn't include puréed. I'm so glad! I'm down 37 lbs, 21 since surgery. Good luck all!
