Post Op September Sleevers, Roll Call



Recommended Posts

Ready, Momofthing and Newgrandmother: So sorry you've been sick, Sounds like you've been keeping yourselves on the right track with OTC meds and trips to the ER when needed. Hang in there ladies, we'll make it past all this and have a great New Year! And a much healthier, thinner New Year too.

OH My!! Just read my emaisl here. I am so sorry you all are sick!

MOM- I had the flu and drank Coconut Water. It helped so much!! I was able to keep it down and whatever was in there seriously made me feel better within a day. I swear by it now.

NGMA- Sounds like you are finally on the mend??

Ready- You might benefit from the coconut water also. Fluids fluids fluids!!

Get well soon ladies. ((Hugs))

Feeling better. Took a shower without passing out...yeah, me. But I am so weak. My job is a chore today. Need to rest and drink more.

Kparker -- just plain coconut Water? might try that when I feel well enough to drive.

MOM- Yes! It is bottled now at your grocery store.I use the plain coconut water but they do have chocolate flavored, never tried it. I get mine at Trader Joes but I know it is at the regular store too. It REALLY works for hangovers too, or so I have heard. ;)

Zoo I had a day or two like that. The pain was right in my navel area when getting up or down. Went away after that. If it last more than a day or two you need to call your Doctor.

NEWGM- LOL, guilty. But seriously ithe Coconut Water works sooo well. I have had some coctails too with the sleeve and I felt fine. Can NOT do beer but I do ok with wine and vodka. I have only had a couple of drinks since the surgery because I know it is way too many calories for me. I did get a little too buzzed on the Vodka though, It hit fast. I am such a cheap date now.

Alright fellow sleevers, especially those of you who have been sick lately: Getting over the stomach flu, haven't vomited or had any diarrhea since saturday. But here is the new issue and I'm looking for input on should I be worried. I can't eat, and I can barely drink. Honestly, I think I've had all day today, maybe 1 1/2 cups of food at the most. And it just sits there in my tiny tum. I can feel it even now, and I ate...well tried to eat..over 3 hours ago. Drinking is a joke. I sip, but I cannot seem to get enough in. I know I'm dehydrated...the color of my pee and my increasingly chapped lips tell me that.

I'm starting to freak out here. Yes I'm still weak. But I cannot seem to get in enough nutrition to make me stronger. Suggestions?

      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.
