Recommended Posts

That's awesome that you are feeling good..yes that anethesia kicked me in the but too. She kept telling to breath becuase I hs s low oxygen level...what you eating so far? I'm was able to do my first full glass protien shake today.it was carnation instanst with chopped ice and it was good..I'm glad to hear you feel wonderful..its gets better!

So far I've tolerated cream of chicken and Tomato Soup without issues. I'm getting most of my Protein from Protein shakes and I'm okay with that as long as I never have to touch another Bariatric Advantage shake ever again lol!

You just reminded me I had issues with low oxygen in the hospital for a few hours as well. They put me on oxygen for awhile and it seemed to help. Also, even after 2 and a half bags of IV Fluid I had nothing in my bladder. They put some drug in my IV and it seemed to help.

Try some warm tea, I remember Water was hard for me to keep down without having that annoying pain, but tea seemed to help :-)

Ok now I am freaked out. No one told me going to,fast could cause a leak. I thought it was just about tolerating stuff and I have done fine. I don't want to do anything that can cause a leak. Wednesday I can start purée foods. They have good recipes here so I will use those.

June 12 is my birthday and I can have soft food. I am going to a nice place that has grilled fish. I eat sugar free tapioca and drink EAS choco shakes. I like banana muscle milk and all yogurts. Can't have fruit yet. I saw a buffalo chicken purée recipe on this forum I want to try. I don't mind soupy oat meal.

Hi everone I was sleeved on the 29th and I have no hungry pains at all, I really don't even have any craving for food. I'm having a hard time getting the Water and protin shakes down.

        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
