Wits end

Hi guys. I had my sleeve on Nov 28 and am into week 3 and I have to say I'm super down in the dumps.

I've lost 40lbs but I don't feel any better. The knee pain has gotten worse, I'm nauseous all the time. I have no idea how or what to eat and I'm having nightmares about food.

Tonight I was doing dishes after having my 3 oz of mashed potatoes and I just started vomiting. But it wasn't food it was yellowy green bile almost and tasted awful. Have no idea why that happened.

I'm just depressed, still in pain, afraid of food and generally miserable with my decision.

Any words of encouragement would help. Thanks in advance for listening to the complaining.

Hang in there hun - I felt like hell for what felt like forever and did not start to perk up until I was close to 7 weeks out. My husband is the poster child for smooth sailing after surgery and he had had no issues.

I bled internally and had to have multiple blood transfusions that kept me in the hospital for a week, then i get home and an incision opens and i am bleeding everywhere and it would not stop - so back we go the the Er later that night - just about all drinks and foodtasted like a** - when I could eat i vomited - i felt like I was dying of thirst, it was hell getting my liquids and Protein in, I had an acute flare of osteo-arthritis and I literlally could not stand for two weeks. I could go on and on lol.

Oooh I was miserable and I would not trade one second of it - it was worth every bit of misery Hang in there - you will start to feel better eventually. From your ticker you don't look like you have far to go. My husband went from 318 in May to 189 currently, and i am inching my way toward goal.

I think you might want to call the dr on this one. I don't think you should be that nauseous. Your nut and dr might be able to figure out why, and come up with a diet that is more in-tune with your tummy. Then you would know for sure what to eat.

Thanks guys. Part of the problem is I don't have a doctor or NUT. I did my surgery in Mexico. Ill make an appt with my doctor here and see what he says. Can probably at least get a NUT.

To be clear the nausea comes and goes for the last week or so.
