Recommended Posts

I had my surgery wed April 9 .I dont have any pain but the nausea is horrible. Everything I sip I wanna throw it up. I have to take the anti nausea meds to keep anything down. Without that it comes back up. Im having a hard time getting my fluids in. Anyone else have that problem?

Hang in there, it does get better. I took nausea meds too, but only for a week and was better. I didn't have trouble drinking fluids but it did make me get an upset stomach

Yep..had the same issue. Just do the best u can. It will get better overtime.

Don't worry too much about how much Protein u intake are the beginning..most people cannot get the recommended protein for a few weeks. Call your dr if you are concerned.

If the nausea is so bad you are regretting the surgery, something must be seriously wrong. Maybe you should go to the ER or call your doctor. Good luck and get some answers.

Yea idk. It probably wouldnt hurt to just throw your surgeon a call if it persists. Mine is swollen too but im thinking it just still healing.

      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
