I am still here in the hospital, not much pain..because of the pain medicine, so happy I decided to stay here one more night ..they are so attentive here. I haven't really gotten my liquids in..a bit nauseous when I try.. I am healing .. took a shower feel better. I walk and gas comew out..so that's good. I hate sugarfree stuff and no sodium broth.. taste disgusting. Any suggestions.. maybe popsicles I keep hearing about them..and how about Soups?

Had my surgery Friday and the hospital passed out sugar free ice pops and little broth packets (not sodium free) Ox Herb, (have somebody grab them at grocery). They were both fantastic! I was crazy nauseous, and it took me till Monday to be released because I couldn't get in the required 30 oz w/o throwing up. But let me brag that TWO DAYS LATER (today) I am up to 88 oz. water/fluid (brought home those broth packets, warm feels nice going down) and 56 oz. Protein (3 milks and 1 1/2 Protein shakes). I feel great. sleeping on my side and all. Stitches are sore, of course, but no pain meds since coming home.

It get's better every day, so chin up.

sugar free Popsicles are good, I had strained cream of chicken Soup (low fat) and that was very good! This was when I got home from the hospital. In the hospital all I had was liquids.... A lot of diet snapple & water....

        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
