any ideas or similar stories about be nauseous
ElleG replied to lisa654654's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I didn't have any of that. I would talk with the doc you don't want to get dehydrated. Keep trying to get your liquids in. I have no idea what would stop the bowel running. I had the opposite I could not go at all and it was painful and horrible. Feel better soon!! (HUGS) -
I would suggest u buy sample packets until u find a brand/ flavor u like. Try mixing w crystal light (favors) or milk. Best Wishes

Jealous best friend :(
ElleG replied to Crystalynn Alhashim's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wish we lived in a world where all people were loving to each other. All differences were accepted and appreciated. It's heartbreaking when someone u care about / love starts treating u different for any reason. The terms of the relationship should be unconditional, but that's in the perfect world in my head. You can't control other people, how they feel, think or react. Try to talk to ur friend if she doesn't come around u have to ask yourself was she really ur friend -
It will all be worth it in the end. Just think of it like this the insurance co has u on a trial run they want to make sure ur ready to commit long term and change ur eating habits. We all have to jump through the hoops to get the dough. Lol. It will all be worth it in the end. Best Wishes

I took it slow with veggies but they made me sick at first. Now I LOVE salads. Talk with ur doc...Best Wishes!!
-
I would, better safe than sorry. Maybe he can get u in the doc tomorrow. I hope u feel better
