So I'm two weeks post op and I just started back to work yesterday and it was absolutely miserable. I work as a customer service agent for geek squad in best buy and I was so exhausted by the end of my 5 hour shift I almost fell asleep in the car on the way home! Lol... I was also having like cold sweats and nausea....then about ten minutes till the end of my shift I went in the bathroom and threw up! It was pretty sad. As if all of that wasn't enough...after work I went and got myself a small sugar free slurpee...I was hot and I wanted just a little treat...I knew I wouldn't drink the whole thing anyway...well I walked in the front door of my house and the first thing I do is trip over my 100 pound Great Dane... I went flying...and spilled slurpee all over me! So here I was just rolling around on the floor covered in slurpee...crying and my dog didnt even notice what had happened! She's such a freaking moose! Lol. Anyway...that's my story...bad times all around!

Sucks that's you took a spill pun intended. That slurpee is carbonated and might have made you miserable at only two weeks out.. Rest up keep hydrated.. Oh and get your Protein in that will help with your energy levels.. Welcome to the sleeved side.. My boyfriend also works for Geek Squad he's a double Agent.. I'm Surprised you didn't take anymore time off Best Buy has awesome benefits..

Sorry to hear about your day - maybe you had the spill for a reason... I'd stick to Water or crystal light/generic if possible, for a wee while yet. Hope your days get better

Hope you feel better soon! Maybe just an off day. Have you been staying hydrated? I think your great dane did you a favor. I bought a SF 7 up slurpee about 3.5 months post op and it was the only and only time I was horrificly sick post op. I was doing work on site for a client and literally ended up in the bathroom off and on for about 3 hours. It was a nightmare! I will never drink a SF slurpee again. LOL.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
