Stomach Hurts, Need advice AND Your thoughts.
GoldyGirl replied to GoldyGirl's topic in WLS Veteran's Forum
I have actually been asking my self that too, I even asked the doctor today, and It is something he is looking into. Yes I am afraid to eat, but also, My first upper GI showed gastritius, (spelling)...and irritation and swelling. So there is at least some physical issue too. and Thanks for your "Frankness" Each time I hear it is does seem a little more real...Head issues too.... -

Most of the time uncomfortable. I HAVE NEVER been Hungry, always Bloated. I get sick to my stomach easy, today I was drinking a Shake at Wal~Mart, after about 3 drinks, had to run to bathroom, and Had the dry heaves. Sorry if to much info, I had to get IV fluids today cause I was dehydrated AGAIN, got IV fluids just 2 weeks ago too..... -
Only weigh ONCE a month, so you don't let your self get stressed....the sleeve works but you are NOT gonna lose weight every day...I was at goal about 8 months... Good LUCK., and throw away the scale. I only weigh at the doctors office.

Can i have one night of drinking?
GoldyGirl replied to sleeveddoll's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You will be able to have drinks again, but I don't think you should this close to surgery. Doctor made me go 8 Weeks with no drinks (pre op). Talk to your doctor, but I think I know what his answer would be. Best of Luck. -
Keeping complications secret NO MORE!
GoldyGirl replied to SkinnyGirlNC's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have found if I eat junk food, I get sick to my stomach. High fat foods give me stomach cramps. I also had my gallbladder out so that may be part of the reason too. But I am ALSO afraid of eating this kind of food, cause I don't want to Gain All My weight back. I want to follow the rules, but as I do I keep losing. -
