Do anyone know if I could if screwed up my band. I just got it yesterday and liquids are creamy hot Soups go down just fine. I got too confident and had cold power aid well you know what happen next. Yup it made my stomach turn and I got sick. I feel ok now and went back to hot liquids but how bad is it to vomit on day 1

I guess we're band twins in more ways than 1! But I did it with a cold Protein Shake. Yikes! Did you full on vomit or just let it slide back up? I kept mine down with lots of pain and nausea and sweating but I'd probably call my doctors office if I had actually heaving and vomiting just to make sure I was ok.

I am guessing this one day post op diet was what the Dr. instructed? I was on clear liquids.. hot or cold for a week then moved gradually to full liquids.. perhaps you need to back down to Clear Liquids and see how that works... or call your Dr. or nutritionist to make sure what you supposed to be doing.. vomiting is never good with the band.. if it continues definitely call your Dr.

Yes, vomiting in general can cause a slip. I had a slip with full on stomach flu projectile vomiting a few years ago. The kids brought home the bug from school. So I had a house full of germs.

Are you supposed to be on Soups? I was on clear liquids for a while (weeks) after surgery. Even after each fill I'm on clear liquids for a few days before full liquids then mushies.

Post-op it's important to follow the rules: little sips of liquids. And warm liquids (broth, tea, etc) are ideal if you're really swollen.

I'm suppose to be on liquids or any creamy soups. I did fine with those but I chugged cold power aid and was ok then I went to lay down and turned into the exorcist with vomit after that I heaved for about thirty seconds until I caught my breath. I'm fine now I guess I just hope I didn't hurt anything inside

My Dr said I can have anything that I'd be able to drink through a straw for the first week and then move to mushies. Unlike some of you that can have Jell-o during liquids, doc said none of that- you can't suck it through a straw!

Sweetie- I'd just call your surgeons office and let them know. They may want to check up on it but hopefully you'll be okay. I'm definitely finding warm liquids feel much better and settle much more nicely in this crazy tummy!

Really follow the rules the letter it is so important. dont get to this point and test the bsnd and looking for ways to get around it..it can be painful and dangerous. This will change your life and it is so worth the effect...Treat yourself and band like the Qween you are and always call doctor if you vomit..I didnt and I was so sorry.

        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.

      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!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
