Sleeved on 2/18/2014, woke up in ICU

[reany237 4]

I was sleeved on the 18th and I woke up in the ICU? I was allergic to the anaesethic( cant spell it). anyone else have this happen to them? I guess I was paralyzed and it took almost 6 hours for the sedative to wear off. I woke up with a breathing tube down my throat, boy, was I scared. So far, I have been doing okay, I get food cravings still, I know I have enough will power to say no to my cravings and I do but my brain is still saying to me, hey your bored...go find something to eat. what do you do then? ive been keeping myself busy by cleaning mostly. my incisions are looking really good, I just wonder how the inside is doing. Just wanted to drop a few lines, Im new to this forum and wanting to make some new weight loss friends....

That's awful! I'm glad you're doing better though. I hope things go well from here on out.

I have had a anasetitic before, I guess just with that kind of sedative my body couldn't handle. I don't know, went to the doctors today and I have lost 15 pounds!! yay me, I feel good about that, mind wise, but my body is still telling me hey your hungry go eat.....how does everyone overcome the temptations?

For me whey Protein Drinks and Water helped me out

I am glad to hear you are ok now. I can't begin to comprehend how scary that must have been. I have been craving Chipotle since day 1 after I got home. I wont be able to eat for months and months, so currently my head hunger is for something completely unrealistic and I am aware of that. Honestly, the food I can eat is so unappetizing to me (as I am on pureeds) there isn't much motivation needed. Honestly though, as long as i drink my Protein and sip my Water I seem to be doing ok keeping the chipotle thoughts at bay.
