    Vomiting?

    I think it is trial and error at times I ate something last night that I had before and got really nauseated. I think I ate too fast.I also have anti nausea pills I take everyday still.I am 4 weeks out on Monday.

    12 Days Post Op

    I felt the same way but they told me it gets better fast and it does,I am 4 weeks out tomorrow.On soft foods for another week. It is so much better I am excited to have lost 30 pounds! Feel good but tired.I am back working full time so that explains the tired.My attitude towards foods I used to eat has changed.I am so grateful. I.I did push the envelope andd tired to eat something I used to last night.Not a good idea.I got really nauseated .My body lets me know right away.My nutritionist said if you can't eat be sure and stay hydrated.I have done well with that.Best of luck!

    In the ER.......

    I had diverticulitis attack last summer.This was before I had the sleeve. It was the 5th attack in 2 years.I was told I was a "waking time bomb." If it ruptures you can die from the sepsis that comes with the rupture. So happy I took there avice they removed 2 feet of my colon in June. Make sure you see the doctor about yours.Good Luck.Yanitexan68

    Feeling Upset and Frustrated

    I am three weeks post op and eating soft foods.That makes huge difference.Much better, although I have really had to slow down my eating.Eating fast is just not pe with out a lot of pain so I have really learned todo that.Also remember do not underestimate the anesthesia.It really took a toll with feeling depressed with me.This week I have noticed my mood gettinback being positive.Yankitexan68
  5. I was in about an hour and a half.My surgeon said it took longer do to have trouble with removing scar tissue.and a hiatal hernia repaired.
  6. I had mine on the 4th of Jan.2016,Also had a Hiatal Hernia repair .Everything went really well.I spent a day and night in the hospital.They told me to walk to get out sooner.I did and it worked. The hernia has hurt more than anything.But thankfully yesterday I turned a corner with it.MUCH BETTER! So grateful I had the change to do this.Hope yours went as well.Yankitexas68
