I think I may have consumed less during the first 4 days post up than I was supposed to eat in a day. It's normal. Your appetite will return soon.

I think maybe you need to force yourself to get a little nourishment...I had ALL of the same things as you at the same time...I felt like hell! I quit the pain meds as they were tooo strong for me as well as forced my self to get a little pudding, Jello or what it is you are to eat. I felt better the first day after getting some liquid food down and also the headache went away after that. I think your whole body is in shock from surgery alone, that time of month and lack of food combined...just a suggestion for you -maybe it will help you also

didja ever hear the term"when it rains it pours?", Its the bodies way of just gettin this sht outta the way. I swear by chicken boullion cubes dissolved in hot hot Water.and motrin,(or in this case one of yer pain pills, cause ya cant take motrin or advil, whatever is allowed for crampy achey) for just about everything. Heating pad, most worn out clean nightie, blanket and good book, remote in hans, and some cold cold Water standin by, then luxuriate in the comfort and feel better please.

Try it, it might help. sincerely, Sandy

keeping feet up should slow down your flow and some chicken broth nice and hot makes everyone feel better. I made a hug pot before surgery and was so glad I did when I csme home. Call your doctor about the headache its probably from the pain meds and they can give you another. Heating pad was my life saver as well as gasx and a laxative to get things moving.....it will get better .....line dancer

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

      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
