Yoda's Jedi Journals (aka Yoda's Yammerin's)

hi yoda, I would give it a little longer, Being weak is expected when your not eating much. Remember Mandi went threw this too, now she's talking about maybe another fill. So give it a bit, TAKE YOUR Vitamins. If you don't think your too tight, then I wouldnt worry, right now anyway.

(doc says it is caused from hi belly fat pressure,and maybe he should loose some weight:0

Hi Yoda, i know what you mean about the gurgling, i have it all the time since my last fill, it does not keep me awake mind you, but it does happen at at very inconvenient times. example when the doctor was checking me over the other day. it just would not stop, she asked me if i was hungry LOL.

I have no answer's for you on the weakness, maybe it just because you are not getting enough Protein right now. Hope it gets better soon for you. :hug:

OH yoda, i hate to say it, but are u overfilled? you sound almost as bad as i was. It's the not beinga ble to drink enough that causes the fatigue iin my opinion. I really think u should call the clinic and let them know wahts going on!

nah, I'm definitely not over-filled...I don't have the symptoms like some of you who have been over-filled have....and I can eat...just not a heck of a lot....(not enough of what I "should" be able to eat) but I think that will sort itself out.

I'm not in pain...just a little discomfort off and on.

You guys just SHUSH!!!!

BTW, was sitting on the couch watching TV tonight (about an hour after supper - which consisted of about 1/4 cup of beans) and I coughed (thinking it was just a normal cough) and OMIGAWD....my cough was actually an upchuck!! Poor Mr Yoda...I was yellin' at him to get a towel.....how horrible. So glad I was at home. Now I'm gonna be paranoid about coughing in public.

But, I'm not too tight.

Really....I'm not!

:rolleyes

I changed my ticker.....I lost 6 lbs since last week (that's what hardly eating will do for you....I'm not happy about that part but I will take the loss!).

So, that puts me past the halfway mark now...A huge milestone for me! I never thought I'd see the day! It took 9 months but I'm "halfway" now.....

This last week has been tough; still experiencing some odd problems with the upchucks but I think maybe those are really the PBs everyone has talked about (?) and what I used to call pbs were merely just the "slimes". That's my take anyways. I know things settled down for a lot of you who had this problem so I'll wait for a while longer and see what happens.

But hey.....OMIGAWD, I'm half way there...and ONEderland actually seems to be within a realistic reach now!!!!!!!!!!!!! EEEEEP!

      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.
