Ok I been very very busy getting ready to be in a wedding. So mon I had very little to eat drank coffee for Breakfast and lunch had a baked potatoe and tried eating a chicken sandwhich. Took the top bun off and it still got stuck so I had to vomit to get it out. After work I had to go get my dress hemmed and was running all around I also was starving hungry as hell when I got home about 8pm and finally ate something I didn't eat much of it cuz I didn't feel good. I had a terrible headache and just laid down. I didn't have anymore tylenol so I took a peice of a ibprofen and I know im not supposed to, but my head was killing and I needed something. I didn't even take half of it though anyway since this day I have not been feeling good had salad for lunch yesterday then drank Water and started feeling sick again. I think im going to eat Soup for a while until I feel better I don't know what;s wrong. I hope my band hasn't slipped.

When my band slipped I had a metal taste in my mouth that I now assume is acid reflux.

Hope you feel better soon!

Hi:

If your blood sugar is getting too low you'll feel like crap! I get dizzy and nauseus when I don't have enough nutrition.

Feel better soon!

I don't think your band slipped. The big sign of that is that suddenly you can't keep anything down. Hope you feel better soon.

I wouldn't jump to the conclusion of a band slip!

You had a stuck incident, which very likely caused swelling, and added the irritation from ibuprofen to the mix.

Toss in hunger/hypoglycemia/stress from the upcoming wedding, and that's a recipe for feeling cruddy.

I think you've got the right approach--baby your band for a few days. (Be sure you meet your nutrient needs, though.) Chances are, you'll find that the irritation/swelling abates, and you're back on track.

If it persists, yes---then see your doctor.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
