I'm able to handle liquids really well but the Nauesa is what's killing me . So tired grumpy and weak and ideas what to do

This may sound strange but, think positive and count your blessings. Listen to to upbeat uplifting music soon your frown will turn up side down. Lack of liquids will keep you tired and weak....have someone get you something else to try keep trying till you find something that causes you the.least amount of nausea. Remember to rest too its OK you just had surgery! Take care! Prayed for you tonight!

I'm on day 6 of my pre op diet...and I have maybe a crazy question?!? I was always a big snacker at night, chips, crackers, etc...and my husband never really was much on snacking. But since I have been on the pre op diet he has been munching every night. Like normally he would eat dinner and not eat anything else until the next am for Breakfast. He's been as courteous as he can with it but I just wondered if anyone else has had this happen. He is not overweight so he can eat whatever he wants and not gain. So honestly it makes me feel like he never snacked with me so maybe I wouldn't eat more and now that I can't eat the stuff, he's eating his weight in it. I wanted to ask on here first before I said anything to him b.c I know that so many of you have and are going through the same things. Thanks:)

My surgery was unsucessful...I was admitted at 8:30 am in the morning and ready for 9:30 am. The surgeon made 6 incision outside my stomach area and inserted the larpoc. equipment with air. Then they had to abort the srugery because my heart became weak and my heart rate was so low. My blood pressure went down to 70/40. They pulled the plug and the next thing I knew my surgeon was in the recovery room and told me that he almost lost me because of my heart and pressure. I was devastated and I started to cry. I don't understand why this happened to me? My Cardiologist told me that I was fit to do this surgery and he cleared me. After that they kept me in the hospital for evaluation. They ran some tests on me. They took many blood drawing' date=' a heart cat scan, and 2D echo. All came out negative. Even though the procedure wasn't done I was in pain and haven't eaten for 3 three days. Today they discharge me and I have mild gatric pain. The doctor said to me to schedule an appointment for Monday to discuss my condition and to reschdule my surgery. I'am so hurt and tramatized I don't know what to do now. I guess it was bad luck for me. I'm home know and I'm still crying. I can't believe I had a brush with death.[/quote']

Im so sorry that you couldnt have your operation but im very happy that you are alive to telll the tale. It must be very hard to take it all in at once. I hope you have alot of support around you. I hope that your doctor can give you some hope on monday. Please keep us updated

Well in less than 24hrs. I will be a loser. Never thought I would be happy to say that. Lol. Glad that this pre-op diet is over today. Yesterday was draining I was soooo hungry. Nervous and excited but I have complete faith in my surgeon. Wishing all post-op's a speedy n complication free recovery. And all pre-op's a speedy pre-op diet.

      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.
