K thanks it's just a weird feeling and I didn't know.

Seriously? No replies? Who do I ask if my RNY forum doesn't know? lol

Who is super emotional besides me? Please tell me I'm not alone. I keep having crying episodes almost hysterical. It's not about food. I'm not hungry and I don't want to even think of food. I'm getting plenty of fluids. I'm walking every hour. I'm using my spirometer. I'm giving myself my shots. I don't know what's wrong I'm just emotional. I cry about everything constantly. It all started in the hospital and hasn't gotten better. I feel so helpless. I still can't reach my backside when I shower and my hb has to help me. I can't bend over and put on my own walking shoes by myself. I can't pick up a pan of boiling water because its too heavy (made spaghetti for my large family.). I can't pick up the junk off the floor that the kids leave behind. I just feel stupid and helpless. I cry all the time. I don't know what to do. Just stick it out?

Lol I hate any seafood so I don't even know why I read this thread but you made me laugh. All of that is totally true.

Hubby is driving thank goodness and we are already stooping to let me walk around and sip some Water.

Well I should have done that but I didn't know what to do. I just got discharged and left and the whole time with tears running down my face. I hope this day gets better.

What is a patient advocate?

I was just really surprised. I thought if I wasn't ready she would at least let me stay until after noon but no I was discharged within 45 minutes of her leaving my room. There I was balling my eyes out and she just kept saying "there is no medical reason for you to be here. If you aren't comfortable going all the way home, go check into a hotel but you aren't staying here"

And now she made me take potassium in a teaspoon of yogurt. Yogurt isn't even on my list of allowed foods until day 15 post op.

Well I just found out I can't. The doctor on call(not my doc) said I have to get out now. I've been crying ever since because I feel so lost. I have a long drive and I've taken in nothing but water since surgery but she says there is no medical reason for me to stay and wouldn't even let me stay through afternoon.

I had a really rough night last last night. They have mentioned discharging me today but I just don't feel ready. My insurance pre approved me for up to 5 days. I want to just stay one more night and leave tomorrow morning. That would only be 3 days. I want to get through one night where I don't have an emotional breakdown. Is that crazy? I have to drive 2.5 hours to get home and I just want a better grip on everything. I've been walking every hour and doing my breathing exercises. I feel ok during the day (just tired mostly). At night is when the pains start. Thoughts???

Ok I'm post op now!!! I had surgery yesterday at 7:30am. I had some trouble coming out of anesthesia. My hubby and the nurses said I was really goofy and loopy. I had a lot of the gas pains yesterday and this morning but I had my barium swallow at 7:30 today and now I am sipping on water so wonderful. I love water always have and I was glad that I can still tolerate it. Starting to fall asleep so gonna go back to bed. Thanks for all your support and prayers.

Thank you so much. Thanks to everyone for your support encouragement and prayers.

Wish I had thought of that yesterday. I'm on way to hospital and still going. We will probably have to stop and I HATE going in public restroom but it's that or an accident.

Friend with benefits (just sex)

Ok I'm on the road headed out.

Hey I'm up and going. Getting ready still going to the freaking bathroom. I will be thinking of you and praying all goes well for both of us.

My surgery is his first case at 7:30 but I have to be at hospital at 5:30. I live 2 hours away so leaving here at 3:00. What about you?

Once I lost from 242 to 192 in just under 2 months. Another time I lost 38 lbs in 6 weeks doing HCG. Of course I've gained it all back but it is possible. Don't stress about it. Stress will certainly stall weight loss. Try losing as much as you can and try to relax.

My diet wasn't so bad all liquids with a small lean cuisine under 1000 cal (I did that on my own.) I just kept going with it but I can understand how frustrating it is. Honestly while I had the flu I had to force myself to drink the small amounts I got down. I felt horrible. I will be praying for you to heal quickly. I am sorry you are sick.

I totally understand. Two days before my surgery I got the flu and I was deathly ill. I was so upset at first but looking back I'm glad I put it off two weeks so I could be at my best for surgery. Take Vitamin C and drink plenty of fluids. If you think you may be getting the flu get in Tamiflu ASAP. Call your doctor. When I thought mine was just a cold they said I could take Claritin. Good luck and know that no matter what happens God is in control and He has a reason for everything.

Thanks guys I am so excited and I love this site because everyone is so supportive and positive. I originally thought I was going to get the sleeve and I was registered on vertical sleeve talk and that forum is so negative and it was always something bad I was reading. I am so relieved to talk to the people on RNY talk. Thanks again very much for all your support and good luck and God bless to everyone out there going through this!!!
