I got roses and those aren't edible. Smart husband of mine....but we took my mom out to dinner and they had a wonderful meal and I packed my Jello and brought a boullion cube and the waiter gave me hot Water. I accidently used a straw taking my first couple sips of iced tea and realized what I was doing. Oops!!! No harm done though. Had a nice time and their food and desert didn't bother me in the least.

My husband showed up with flowers n a gorgeous Coach purse! I'm home more but feeling sore n gasy. A lil naucious too. When will it go away?

I was extremely nauseous yesterday and I couldn't even sip 2 medicine cup sizes of water... I ended up throwing up and being soooooo nauseous all night they kept giving me zofran (spelling?) but it would wear off in an hour! Not as much nausea today so have me lightly sipping a Protein shake... They think that a lot of the nausea was caused by the stuff I had to drink for the upper GI... I want to go home but I'm so afraid of dehydration and nausea! Anyone else having problems with liquids? ?

Did you have to drink barium for the upper GI? Was that your leak test?

Have you asked about phergan? Works better than zofran IMHO

Hello newbies Drujon and Evolving. I'm scheduled for the 26th and am on my pre-op diet. You can do this, Drujon! I know how hard it is to quit smoking, but you've got to keep your eye on the prize.

Emmy, I hope you start healing up and feeling better quickly. :( I can't imagine vomiting with the new stomach is any fun.

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
