I'm seriously tired. Absolutely no energy. I can get maybe 2 ounces of shake or yogurt in. Or 3 ounces cream Soup. I'm pushing n pushing my Water but it's never enough. I'm not trying to be a whiner but I'm pretty miserable.

I am out of surgery and finally awake enough (kinda) to post an update! Surgery took a couple hours. My surgeon said that my liver shrank very well and that surgery went great! And no hiatal hernia!!! I have 5 lap sites. I have some aching pain in my belly, but the IV pain meds are working pretty well. The worst part is my mouth and throat are EXTREMELY dry and a little sore. I am allowed ice chips, but I have found that I can get too much for my tummy to take! I'm nodding in and out from exhaustion. I didn't sleep well the past 2 nights. Thank all of you that sent prayers and good vibes!

Welcome to the losers bench Lindsey!! Get some rest!! Congratulations! After surgery my mouth was so dry and I couldn't have anything but they did let me use mouth swabs. Didn't take the dryness completely away but it helped!

I feel you! I been working on this shake since 1pm after about 3 sips I feel like it's bubbling back up and I can't drink anymore !! Water is doing same thing . I was able to eat my Calcium chew though. My doc gave me all pill form meds which sucks I feel like they get stuck. I'm pretty miserable 5 days out too. Doc said I'm just going the slower route.. Yay me :(

I went back to work on Monday full time teaching and it went well. Though it's harder to remember to get my liquids in

Hi everyone, I am Angie and I had my surgery 2/11. I was pretty miserable until like 6 days after it, getting rid of the gas was so hard. I have a question, everything I have makes me burp right away. I sip Water, Protein Shake, Soup and all is the same. Is this normal?? Also I lost 17lbs but nothing in the last 3 days and that freaks me out. I am so glad I found this app, thanks

I felt fine. I have a desk job but after lunch got tired and bloated I ended going home about an hour and a half early. Being in dress pants was the most uncomfortable. Thank goodness for a longer shirt and a private office. I ended up unbuckling my pants after lunch:)

I get weird like, spasm type feeling sometimes after I drink or have a bite of yogurt/pudding. I don't know of its cause in full (cause I get them sometimes when I know I'm not hungry cause I haven't had anything in a long time) or because I'm hungry, or its just what happens. The feeling is like my stomach is spasming up towards my esophagus. But I also get it when it'll happen and half way through it it turns into a burp. So weird.

I called my doc about my weird pains last night. Said it's probably normal, from my incisions healing and stuff. Told me to take pain meds if it hurts. I assumed it was normal, glad it is.

        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
