I had my surgery 2/29/12 n lately I've been waking up with a dry mouth wtere my lips stick to my teeth. I sip all day but I don't get 64oz of Water I'm sure. And my stomach has been cramping so bad I can't stand up straight it hurts to much. Does anyone have any ideas of how to get 64oz of water. I had a very hard night yesterday throwing up n couldn't sleep.< /p>

Sorry to hear you are having a tough time, suggest you discuss with your surgeon or dietian, sound worse than it should be. Good luck.

I agree, I would call my surgeon's office and see what they have to say. I hope you feel better!

I was struggling to. I live in the uk. Found sugar free ice pops in tesco. They are toy story brand and have been a life saver especially in the recent heat. Also children suger free cartons of pop like the ones you can freeze. As well as fruit shoots cause the only contain natural sugars. Hope this helps.

I am doing good. Weight loss did slow down last week to about half a pound every 3 to 4 days which was frustrating. But it seems to be coming off again now. I have been struggling with Protein as well all the ones I bought were quite sickly but I have found an Atkins advantage coffee ready made at £2 each they are a bit expensive but really nice and have 15grams of protein in.

Hi JemJem. I have my op in Taunton on Tuesday, looking forward to getting it over. fruit shoots are ok? They seem to have quite high sugar, but don't give you a problem? Have you tried the toy story popsicles (mogz recommended above) from Waitrose, no sugar (you freeze type).

      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.
