2 Weeks 2 Day Post Op..



Recommended Posts

And Dr, already started me on regular food but just be cautious.. I had the Iband done so for another 2 weeks i will have no restrictions untill my first fill on the 26th. My question/problome is Today for lunch i hade captin d's and i finished 2 pc. of fish(with batter on it) I have been feeling sick with like a burning and extream fullness in my stomach. I have a feeling that i might have over stuffed my belly. I did take 2 maalox and tis hasent helped at all :( Im not eating for the rest of the night hoping this will eventally subside.. Anyone else experienced this feeling.. I feel so guilty now.

Rachel, my doctor put me on mushies 2 weeks post-op, perhaps the fish without the crust would be better for your new stomach. I can have soft, not fried fish in the mushies stage. Good Luck!

Wow...seems way too soon for Captain Ds. I am 2 weeks out today. I can eat some regular foods but am pretty careful. Have made a couple of mistakes and have thrown it up - its all about learning lessons. I, for one, have to avoid all fast food because I don't do it in moderation. Still sticking to mushy stuff for the most part.

I'm a week post surgery and still on liquids. I won't even be on mushies for another 2 weeks. I would tend to agree with the others, I'm guessing the fish with the crust was just too much for your tummy to handle this soon. I'm sure it'll subside as the food slowly passes.

I know I feel uncomfortably full very easily right now. I had a cup of strained cream of chicken Soup a half hour ago, and I still feel like I just over-ate a Thanksgiving dinner. I'm that full.

Give your tummy a break tonight, walk if you can to help it move through faster, and maybe go a little gentler for a couple weeks.

I am a week and half post op and still on liquids. I would think fried foods might upset your stomach. Give it some time, I sure you would feel better soon. GL

I was banded on 12/21 and can eat soft foods as tolerated. I can only eat so much and then I get a full feeling and don't swallow so well. If I pushed through that and kept eating I think I would feel some of the things you are describing. I think by tomorrow you will feel better, however, I would portion out your food so you know how much your new pouch can comfortably handle. It feels like each new thing is a test for me. I can not do fried foods at all. The only meat I can eat right now is chili and I had a quesadilla with chicken that was kinda ground up. Good luck.

      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
