I did bloodwork and urine sample yesterday. Everything was perfect according to the dr, but I still feel like crap. The zofran quit working, so I switched to phenegran, but that’s not helping so far either. I’m at work today and feel like I’m going to throw up at any minute. It’s absolutly miserable. Dr said it could just be from surgery 😥😥. I really wish it’d go away.

I’m with you friend. I had my surgery on 12/26. Can’t eat hardly anything and then nausea is insane. I’m praying it’ll get better. I’ll pray for you too.

Anybody having nausea? I’m 3 weeks and 2 days post op and have had horrible nausea for almost a week. I might be able to eat 2oz of soup a day and that’s it. I was supposed to go to dr yesterday but couldn’t because of the weather. I had to reschedule for Monday. I am going to do blood work today, so my surgeon has it for Monday. I’ve been taking zofran but it absolutely does not work. I found some reglan I had left over from my pregnancy and I’m going to see if that works. Thankfully I’ve been out of work , because of the weather, but this nausea is ruining my life. My house is a mess, my kids are basically having to fend for themselves, thank god my 9 year old can help with my baby. Just picking her up and changing her diaper makes me feel sick to my stomach, like it takes too much energy. A lot of the time I totally regret having this surgery 😥😥.

I’m almost 3 weeks and stay nauseous. I have a very hard time keep stuff down. Usually I can keep down 4oz protein shake, 2 oz soup, then 2oz soup and that’s it for an entire day. Usually I might be able to get about 24oz if water a day and that’s pushing it. Oh and I also tAke At least 1 zofran a day, usually 2.idk what’s going on with me, but I hope it gets better on. It’s pretty miserable.

Mine we fine for two weeks, now all of a sudden they make me extremely nauseous and sick for like 30 minutes. I’m just going to start taking them in the afternoon, so at least if I’m sick I won’t be at work It really sucks.

So I started my unflavored protein powder yesterday and my stomach has been torn up. I’m thinking it’s the milk part and I might have to get a plant based protein powder. Anybody else have problems with the whey protein?

Probably up from the wine, but man I bet you had a good buzz!! Lol. I’m too scared to drink right now lol. Don’t worry it’ll probably be gone tomorrow.

I’ll be two weeks Tuesday and my nutritionist says I can start purée then. I’m, so tired of not real food, I find myself not eating at all, instead of the yogurt or shake. Also I’ve been drinking this protein water and I think it gives me gas. Anybody else?
-
I haven’t, but I’ve heard from other people that it can happen. I have 3 girls ages 9, 5, and 15 months. My husband wasn’t off, sun, mon, or tues, So I had them all by myself. I really think that slowed my recovery some. It seems like with this surgery your body really really needs to rest. Im fighting a bad cold, but I sure wish I’d feel like myself soon😩😩.

9 days post op and I’m down 14.6lbs I’m starting my weight loss from surgery day bc I didn’t have to do a pre op diet and I kind of went crazy lol. So I was supposed to go back to work yesterday, but I felt like I pulled something Tuesday. I was so scared it was something to do with my surgery, and my surgeon is out of town, so I went to my primary care dr yesterday. He took x rays which I haven’t heard back about yet, but he seems to think I fractured my rib coughing, not anything surgery related. So I’m headed back to work today armed with my pain pills from surgery and a lot of prayers. I’m glad we have this group, because I don’t like to share my weight loss victories with my family. It’s like that’s the only time they are proud of me when I’m losing weight and idk kind of makes me feel bad. If that makes any sense. Anyways sorry this was so wordy, but hope everyone has a great Thursday.

So I’ve been coughing a lot because of this dumb weather and this afternoon I coughed and felt like I pulled something by my big incision. So all night I’ve been having this stabbing pain like right in my side. It hurts so bad it takes my breath away and like makes my knees buckles and then in like a minute it’s gone, it then it comes back. I think they are muscle spasms. Anybody else experience anything like this?
-
Well I’m a teacher so standing up will definitely not be a problem lol. I have my nausea meds, I’m just worried about them making me tired and yes I plan to have all my meals ready to go, so I don’t mess anything up.
-
Yep, my dr said 7 days.

I am one week post-op today! Yay, I made an entire week!! Anyways I haven’t been driving, but today I drove about 10 minutes away from home and got nauseous. I was wondering if anybody else feels this way when they drive? I go back to work tomorrow and I have about a 45 minute commute each way and I’m worried about getting sick 😩. Congrats to any other 12/26 sleevers!! We made an entire week!! I’ll admit at times I didn’t think I would, but we did!!

I haven’t really had a backslide. I just still don’t really really like doing anything. My surgery was on 12/26 and today I’ve had 4 oz of yogurt, 4 oz of protein shake, 32 oz of water, and 1 sugar free popsicle. I’m following the menu my nutritionist gave me pretty much. I still need to drink more water, eat dinner, and have one more snack.

I know! The past two nights my big stomach insicion has woken me up both times. Then it’s like my lower back is sore from having to sleep on it. I can’t seem to get One good sleep in hope you’re feel better from yesterday. I ordered some unflavored protein powder which should be here Wednesday.

HI, I had 2 oz of Greek yogurt and 1oz of protein shake for breakfast. I don’t feel necessarily full, but I do feel thirsty. My nutritionist says I shouldn’t drink for 45 min after breakfast. I don’t want to over eat, but I don’t really know what full feels like. I just know what over full feels like. Does that make sense? I really really really have to work on getting my protein and water today.
-
Yes! It’s so funny, because all I want to do is sleep, but today I couldn’t sleep at all. It’s crazy. I go back to work Wednesday, so I guess I better enjoy being at home while I can.

I had my surgery 12/26 so idk if I’m 4 days post op or 5 (I don’t know if you count surgery day or the day after). Anyways tonight is the first night I can lay on my side!!!! I’m so excited. It hurts a tiny bit like a stretching, but not enough to move. Today was the first day I put real clothes on, put my contacts in, and like went to a store. It was kind of hard on me and I didn’t drive but I went. I just feel like I totally lost 4 days of my life. Like I know I was around, but I wasn’t completely like coherent. Does that make any sense? I think I basically slept for four days.

Hi, i had mine on 12/26. It’s been pretty rough. I didn’t realize how much I was going to miss food.
