You had the sleeve yesterday? Cut yourself some slack. It will get better. I haven't had any of the "usual" problems but maybe I am unusual. No pain, no dumping, no vomiting, did I mention NO PAIN. Just hang in there, it will get better!

It is just the anesthesia....it will go away. Some have it worse than others. I didn't have any nausea...and just lucky I guess. If you had your surgery yesterday, you haven't eaten yet so the nausea is due to the anesthesia.

I was sleeved yesterday also and did not get nausea until I tried sipping a Protein Shake then a bit after some chicken purée :( . My pain is manageable and I'm just looking forward to heal all my otter wounds so then I just have to concentrate in my inner healing. Best of luck to everyone!!!

You will get better. I didn't eat for 24 hours. I wanted to give my stomach a rest. Don't push it. It will get better on its own. It is so swollen from the surgery it is in rebellion! Good Luck! By the way, you will lose about a pound a day for the first month. Let that be your soothing thought for the day! YeHaaw!

I was sleeved on 11/5 the first day was a breeze, one of my nurses had the surgery, she gave me excellent advice, the second and third day would be the roughest. Funny thing is it seems to be true. I realized trying to get in all my fluids so I could be discharged caused me to vomit because I was rushing, now I'm more aware of my new tool. It will get better

Im actually doing pretty good. Today has been my best day. I am able to drink alot more, diff things too without nausea. I can bend and do pretty much everything myself at this point. I just try and take it slow when i drink to prevent vomiting and so far so good. Remember its hasnt even been a week yet, so give your body the time it needs:)

I'm trying everything slowly. I had a really bad time in hospital. First my iv infiltrated and my left arm was all swollen and red. Then i had an allergic reaction to one of the meds given to me. The right side of my face now has raised red whelps between my forehead and my earlobe. And because i received about 4 new meds that I've never had before i don't know which one caused it. i moved around a little better today. I go Wednesday to have the drain tube removed from my left side. Hopefully i will feel better after that.

        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!

      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
