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 !!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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!
