Has Anyone Noticed A Change In Their Sleep Patterns?
KayKay20 replied to GoState's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Before surgery I never slept at night & I was had a prescription for sleeping pills & still couldn't sleep. Now I'm 12 days out every night around 10:30 I get real sleepy. I may fall asleep about 11/ 11:30 & wake up between 6:30 & 8:30 depending on if one of my kids wake me up first. -
I'm 8 days out & yesterday I got to start with phase 2 soups & stuff. I ate some soup & drank crystal light, took a nap woke up & I had such a sour/ bitter taste in my mouth. What is that all about? I brushed my teeth twice, rinse my mouth & then drank some water & finally got rid of that bad taste. Is this normal?
-
Ok thank you. I was wondering what was going on... Thank you.

I feel the exact same way.

I'm 9 days out & I'm having a rough time every time I smell food I feel as thou I am going to go crazy if I don't get any. I'm on phase 2. I am so ready for food. It seems as everyday I am regretting getting this done as of right now. I mean I cry & throw a tantrum like a 3 with my husband. ( over food) What's going on with me? -
maryjane61 I know that's what I keep saying, I hope my husband didn't waste his money, I don't want to let him or myself down. I just want to stop thinking about food so much. I know I am just 9 days out, but will those thoughts ever go anyway?

Incisions Are Itching
KayKay20 replied to KayKay20's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
OMG, thank you guys. They itch so bad. I was rubbing, then it started to have a burning sensation. I'm only 8 days out. How long will the itching last? -
I still have gas just not as bad this morning, thanks for the encouraging words. But I am so hungry now, I think.
-
As of today almost a week out & this gas is still just as bad as it was when I left the hospital.

How Painful Was The Surgery?
KayKay20 replied to AdeptDreamer's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi everyone I had my surgery Aug 6th. When I woke up I felt ok, till they made me get up & walk around. While walking I would vomit clear vomit. The nurse kept telling my husband she's not going to do anything it's just the nausea she's felling. But I kept vomiting & vomiting. It hurt like crazy to walk at first, it got better. But I still have gas so bad. It feels like menstrual cramps times 5 to me. I'm only 3 days out but I'm ready for the gas pain to leave. Other than the gas pains. Its getting better. -
I have the same problem. This gas is kicking my butt. No matter what I still have had gas. Someone HELP ME. I have Gas X thin strips. Also a prescription from my Dr. I don't know what to do???/

Thanks everyone. I don't know how to calm my nerves. My husband keeps saying don't worry God got you...

I am mad at myself, I cheated & on the 5th day I still have 10 days left before my surgery grrrr. I'm so stupid.

Hi everyone I'm starting my liquids this Monday the 23rd & surgery date is August 6th. I'm so excited & scared out of my mind at the same time. Is this normal? Also, I have been having doubts thinking of canceling. I don't know if it's just my nerves or what. I keep saying to myself what if I don't wake up. What if i can't handle the pain (going thru the recovery process & everything)? But i do want to be healthy. My husband says either way he will still love me, no matter if i decide to go through with it or not. What's going on with me? I was so really for this in April....

2 more days then the beginning of my new life starts.
