I'm not complaining. The problem is that I am not hungry, and having a hard time getting any nutrition in. The smell, thought, everything about food makes me nauseous. Called the Dr. and I am dehydrated. Will be going to see the surgeon in the morning. Until then, Popsicles and water for me.

The thought of food makes me nauseated. I had plication with my lapband. Any advice on how to get in calories. Had a protein shake for breakfast with 30g protein.

Good luck tomorrow. The Unjury shakes can be found online.

Thanks. Popsicles are my only saving grace. I feel like something is stuck in my throat, it's just sitting there. If that makes sense. It doesn't hurt, but I just don't want to eat. I did make myself eat 4 ounces of mushies this evening. Sipping on water now. I am so grateful for all the people on here for sharing their experiences.

I agree. Try to heal. I am 10 days post op. Your body had to heal itself. I had to go back to my doctor and ask him to give me more time off. Originally, I wanted to go back to work. However, when I got there, everyone in my staff knew I was not ready. I am going to take the time to get myself on track.

Good for you. I am on day 6. I was banded 12/5. I return to work on 12/12. Other than shoulder and port pain, I am fine. It does get better. Yesterday, I called my surgeon because I was still nauseated. He moved me to mushy foods, and OMG I felt better.

SF Popsicles. Make sure you have Popsicles!!!!! I am 6 days post op and had trouble early on. Popsicles were the only thing that I could keep down.

Feeling much better today. Still a little nausea but I'm walking through it. Took a shower and felt even better. Now I am just trying to get fluids in. I thought I had everything I needed but I don't. Did I also mention that I am from the Dallas Fort Worth area and everyone is stuck inside because of the snow and ice.

What should I do.

I'm having outpatient surgery at 12:00 noon tomorrow. I am so nervous and excited. I have opted for lapband with plication. Anyone else going this route?

sorry didn't finish. Anyways I had to do a two week sugar busters diet. Hasn't been too bad. I've lost 7 lbs. Went for my preop appt today. I'm pretty excited. I thought I'd be more nervous as I've had anxiety issues in the past, but so far just excitement. The lady in hospital registration said I'm so excited for you, you're going to be so cute at the end. Well your cute now but I just can't imagine after. Lol the things people say. I get banded on 12/5 too.. I'm so excited.
