Wondering if you are drinking the Water too fast? Take a small sip and put it away for a couple of minutes and try again. If you can get Protein, that's fine, but hydration is much more important.

If you keep throwing up even with small sips call your doctor, okay? don't try to struggle through. They will be able to help.

I can't drink plain water. It goes down fine when I mix grape mio in it. You might try flavoring yours.

reno is right

Water is much more important than Protein at this time

you must stay hydrated!!!

many people successfully drink room temperature Water - goes down easier

sorry you are having issues with dry heaves :angry:

not that this helps much...............

but you only had the sleeve 3 days ago

your tummy is still adjusting - its mad at you for allowing a doc to "cut you up" ;)

give tummy more time to heal

after a few days, "maybe" give doc a call if that will make you feel better

but...........these issues "usually" take care of themselves and get resolved

each day should get better and better :)

God Grant Me Patience, Just Hurry Up About It!!!!

kathy

good luck

speedy recovery

I too was sleeved on 11/20 I'm doing ok with my liquids I've found that if I take even half of a normal sip, it hurts, so I barely "nibble" at my water! Now that being said I was able to get an entire Premier Protein in in about 3 1/2 hours of just barely sipping! I have to say the Protein Shake hits my tummy way better than the water! I just started working on an Apple&Melon Isopure and that's going ok! Just take your time I heaved for the whole first night into the next! Once they switched my pain meds I stopped! Do you think that could be your case? Also so they have you on any reflux meds? Maybe your tummy just needs a break. But like everyone said I would call your doctor just to be sure, they don't want you to be dehydrated waiting for things to heal! Hang in there, this is not easy! Every thing I do I worry if I'm stretching my new sleeve! Feel free to PM me we can keep in touch!

Thanks everyone! It only happened twice but was miserable when there is nothing in your tummy! I am able to sip the Isopure they sent home but there is no way I'm getting in all my fluids at this point! I'm walking a lot so I figure that is good and farting (tmi) but hey it's getting the air out!

        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
