    when will it get better?

    I'm 16 day out! I felt like **** first week and a half, i struggled to eat and sip, I regretted it so much it's onl been the last 4 days I've managed to just get a litre of water in and a few more teaspoons of food! But it slowly getting better each day! I still have my depressed days and I cry and wish I was normal again but my hubby, children and mum keep me going and tell me it's for the best which I now get excited about! Hang in there it gets better with time
  7. Don't stress, I've been exstreamly depressed I was told by a friend who also had the surgery that week 2-4 ur hormones change and u have really down days I've had two good days but the rest of my days I've cried to my hubby and my mum regretting it but I think about it and know it will be better in time what's the vitamins liquid that u are taking? What's the protein powder? I don't get much food in at all but def trying more water each day
  8. I have a struggle of a time. I only just able to drink close to a litre now. I'm not taking and somac or vitiams as it made me sick. I do regret it but I know it's for the best. I have been weak and low energy but been much better last few days! How u going? Any tips on food ur eating I'm hating it all

    Lets talk about sex...

    That's great I love u have courage to tell us that! I'm only 2 weeks out and when my hubby and I have sex it's quick yep right get off kind of thing, because of my weight!! But I can't wait to get really into it once I look amazing! I have a question tho since ur had surgery a while back.. What happens with the excess skin? I was 104 post op and in 2 weeks down to 92 and worried about my skin?
  11. I agree everyone is completely different! i woke up and I wasn't in pain I was dry in the mouth and wanted to drink but I wasn't aloud the first day so the nurse gave me mouth swabs to put little bits of water in my mouth. But I was exstreamly sleepy I keep falling to sleep on my family when they came to visit. The only uncomfortable thing for me was the oxygen in my nose and everytime i would fall asleep blood pressure on my arm would start up again! I was a little hot and had a slight ache In my left should. Part from that recovery was fine its now that I'm home it's harder and I do get depressed sometime and regret the surgery! I try to have good days I'm 2weeks out today and I know it was for the best all the best

    Everything is yuck!

    The office said if I can't get enough water down I will have to be put back in hospital on an Iv drip, they said my vomiting maybe a reaction to the somac or the vitiams so they will try me on something else today. I had the best day yest best one since surgery I'm 2 weeks out today! I only drank 4 cups of water! The office also told me to concentrate on the water over eating mixing it with squeezed lemon or orange so I have that a try went down much better and if I can drink a litre or close to then she thinks I will b ok and not to dehydrated. Hope ur ok. I know how u feel I have bad days every day until I had 1 good day yestursday! It's so hard I always think I wish I was normal again. Or if I could of just done a healthy diet but I know long term will b amazing

    I hope it gets better in time., how long since u had surgery? I had a good day today managed to get in the most amount of water 4 1/2 cups and managed to eat some chicken and corn soup. Def and good day! I rang my doctor and they think it maybe the somac or vitamins making me feel weak and vomiting, so tomoz I start on new meds! But today had no somac/ vitiams and feel so much better in my self I even managed to go to work for 5hrs
