I everyone.. I'm almost 3 weeks out. Caught a throat infection on Wednesday and have been so tired lately. Then my daughter got sick and has been in the hospital for 3 days now.. I haven't eaten much in the last 3 days, it's hard to even get Water in. I feel nauseous at the sight of food or even anything besides Water.

I'm depressed :( I need a swift kick in the rear. I called my doctor and he keeps insisting that I must eat.. But I can't stand the sight of food.

Just wanted to rant to people who will understand.

When you fund yourself unable to eat I was told to revert to 4 Protein shakes a day to keep your strength up. You dint want to lose muscle mass instead of fat because that's what will happen if your body doesn't have nutrients. Do WHATEVER you have to do to get em down.

Btw sorry your feeling so poorly. Hope the baby gets better soon.

I know you're feeling tired and rundown but exercise is a natural antidepressant. You release some type of endorphins (pheromones I think) that make you feel better.

RNY Guru is sooooo right.... even though you can't eat food you MUST get your Water and Protein, my dr. always says "sip-sip-sip all day long" its is sooooo important to get your Water and Protein DAILY. It will make you feel better and have energy. Also the exercise helps it produces endorphins (sp) which is a naural high :)

I hear you... when I had spells of not felling well the last thing you want to have is water or food but I forced myself !!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
