Brilliant well done, I was 135kg at the start and three weeks later I am 117.9kg. it has been tough with a couple of set backs but am getting there. Sent from my HTC 10 using the BariatricPal App -
Things will and do get better, your body is adjusting to the new you. Don't rush the re-feed stages, if the next stage makes you feel sick then go back to the stage you were previously on. I had a horrid time for weeks 2/3 but things are now calming down. I also reduced the pureed foods down to 150 ml and that greatly helped, good luck and God Bless.

Discouraged and scared to eat
adriant replied to TMHopkins's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I suffered badly as you are so they consultant here in the UK put me on anti sickness tablets and it really helped. Surprised you're trying Jello the first two weeks should be liquid's only, then pureed foods. I will be starting week 4 on Monday and have lost nearly 40 lbs, still have the occasional vomiting so have reduced the amount I consume to 150 ml and things have settled down. Good luck and God Bless. Sent from my HTC 10 using the BariatricPal App -
What a journey....can anyone relate?
adriant replied to addiesbigdaddy's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
So sorry that this has happened, I also had a horrible time a week after surgery with serve internal bleeding, thankfully no leaks like you had these are dangerous, I feel that I have now turned the corner and am on pureed foods. My state of mind has greatly improved thanks to the support from people in this group. Things will get better just take your time with each and every stage. God Bless and good luck.

I am still on pureed foods and will be for another 10 days before I move onto small solids. All the advice I have have been given is listen to your body and be guided by what it tells you, I tried pureed foods too early and that caused me to vomit, so I went back to liquid's for a couple of days before trying again. Gently gently don't try to rush things, good luck. Sent from my HTC 10 using the BariatricPal App

Mine hurt terribly on the left side, this is the area the stomach that was cut away was removed through, even after nearly 4 weeks I still have small bruising around the site. Don't worry each day is a learning day and it does get better. God Bless and I pray for a speedy recovery for you. Sent from my HTC 10 using the BariatricPal App

Help... Vomiting surgery date 11/23
adriant replied to mamalisa268's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was exactly the same, it will pass over a couple of days, over here we are given antis sickness tablets to suppress the urge to vomit, you might want to ask for these. Good luck Sent from my HTC 10 using the BariatricPal App -

6 days post op and screwed up bad...
adriant replied to MTWilliams's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Please go easy, I am also going through the wars and pains at week 3. It's so dangerous to start on solids to soon, it can cause you new tummy to leak into your cavity and that can give you major issues. I have just started on puree foods and it's very hard with the vomiting, so I lessened the about to around 150mls and that I seem to tolerate, please be careful.

Get your blood pressure checked, that's what I had and it turned out that I had internal bleeding, spent another week in hospital on drips and meds. Sent from my HTC 10 using the BariatricPal App

BAD BAD BAD CHEST PAINS
adriant replied to WGH3IWDT's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sounds like trapped air (gas) I have found that I have to sit bolt upright to eat and never drink anything at the same time, always have to wait for about an hour before I can drink liquid. Sent from my HTC 10 using the BariatricPal App
