The taste is AWFUL! Hopefully this will not last long. I'm SO paranoid about having BAD BREATH!

Gastric sleeve revision and hernia repair
Chas74 posted a topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
So, I had my revision on the 11th and I'm at my post op appointment. I just met with the dietician and she sure busted my bubble when she told me not to expect to lose the weight like I did before. I'm going to ask the doctor when he comes in but that was a very discouraging thing to hear. Has anyone else been told this? -

That's why I love this site. This is where I go to for my support. This first thing I wanted to do when I left there was go eat something. -

It's not like I thought it would be as easy, I'm not that stupid. She could have been more supportive but that's not her job. -
I know I'm drinking a ton of water but sometimes I have to go every few minutes and I'm scared I'm going to get dehydrated. Has anyone else experienced this?
-
@machalo thanks, I hope work goes well too. I'm ready to go back.
-
@machalo it's going pretty good. This weekend was kinda tough because I'm used to eating good on the weekend plus being off work and bored is killing me cause I want to eat but I haven't had anything I'm not suppose to. I have my follow up tomorrow and then I go back to work Wednesday.

@machalo I'm sure you will be taken off fluid pills. I was because you could get dehydrated very easy

@arabesque It doesn't do it to me all the time. Mainly when I lay down to take a nap OR like you said...at night.

I'm six day post surgery and still bloated feeling and I find it's hard to take a deep breath. Has anybody else had this problem? Any advice on how to fix it or does it just have to fix itself in time?

Thanks

@doublepau I had my surgery on the 11th

It's being going ok. Just still bloated from surgery. I think it's because it's the weekend and I always would get something good so I been wanting food even though I know I couldnt eat it. I highly suggest Chike brand protein. It's a meal replacement with high protein. I get the banana magic and it's great!

Hard to take a deep breath

Yes, I have a spirometer and I use it. I figured it would have to resolve itself but I figured I would ask anyways. -

Thanks. I know I worry about any little thing but I just wanted other's opinions. I know it's soon but I was just wondering. I would feel good if it wasn't for this bloated feeling. -
Have you tried CHIKE brand protein meal replacement powder? It is my favorite, I get the Banana Magic and it's not too sweet and not thick. I mix it with water plus it has 48 grams of protein!

1 month post up trouble sleeping
Chas74 replied to Crazycatlady48's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm having the same problem. I just had surgery Tuesday and I never have a hard time sleeping. The dr gave me Ambien too but after a few hours Im awake. -
I had my surgery the 11th and came home yesterday. I can't sleep because I'm so uncomfortable and my stomach is burning. Any advice? Is stomach burning normal?

How long does the bloated feeling last after gastric sleeve surgery?
-
I feel the same way, lol
-
I guess I'm just paranoid. Yes, I'm on an acid reducer. You know how it is right after surgery and you worry about every little thing.
