Surgery went well, but the pain and nasea afterward is awful. Had to spend the night in icu because of nasea and slow heath beat. Still very naseaous, hope it will go away soon. Please tell me it does. I'm feeling a little sorry for myself now. Just want these days to be over, so I can enjoy being sleeved.

Praying you can go home soon. Zofran really helped me, too!! They give it to me with any surgery now; Otherwise I'm sick for several days, like a motion sickness. You can do this and will feel better. Carol

Thanks, I will ask for a sublingual pill. I'm getting zofran every 4 hour, it helps some, I also have a patch being my ear, not sure what it is called. Thank you for your encouraging words.

I know just how you feel - nausea is the WORST! I had it constantly for 2 days after surgery. Doctor said it was the medicine they used to put me under and it had to leave my system. Once it did I had no more nausea so HANG IN THERE!!!

I am doing so much better, the two first days were hell for me, but now it's getting better everyday.

My dr gave me rx for the Zofran pills to put under your tounge, and they worked great, thank you all that suggested that.

I am ready for the next adventure in my life :)

So glad you are doing well! I kept a few zofran with me at all times for several months. They are life savers. Sometimes your sleeve can get nauseated at the most unexpected times. Keep a few with ya for a while :)

Looking forward to hearing about your NSV'S and success!!! :)

        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.

      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
