I Have A Question About Going To The Bathroom



Recommended Posts

I was talking to my NUT yesterday and this actually came up in the conversation. She said to get Fiber One Origional Cereal. Crush in a baggie into powder form and add to any liquids/soft solids. Now if you decide to go with a different fiber, make sure it is not an expansive fiber.. You should avoid those for about 3 weeks post op. But anyway that is what I would try if I were you.

Did they ever figure out what the problem is? Something is wrong.... I had my surgery last Friday morning and except for a little tenderness,I am fine. This is how you should feel. What did they tell you? Did they ever do a upper Gi and use the dye ? I had one the day after surgery . I'm so very sorry , I can't imagine the stress you must be under . I am glad you wrote and have wondered about you. Please keep me updated . I care and will be praying for you .

      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.
