As of today I'm actually feeling a lot better. I feel almost back to my normal self except now I'm hungry and my stomach is rumbling and gurgling like a earthquake lol. I want food so badly today and I'm so sick of Protein Shakes tht they make my stomach turn. I'll feel like I'm actually getting a hold of thngs. Thankful I'm doing better...prayer and Water have def helped.

What really helped my gas pains was laying on a heating pad for 5min on each side and rotating until I passed some gas. Also everyone keeps saying warm liquids...didn't do anythng for my gas/pain...I drank ice cold Water and Gatorade.

Hi guys

Feeling so much better, 90% of gas pain has gone.. Started to eat my soft food, which can sometimes trigger off gas pain again.

But over all feeling good.

I'm still a little tender around the port area and actually can feel it myself... Not very attractive

I am 7 days post op and the gas pain is horrible!! I have the worst pain in my left shoulder blade area. I also cannot seem to burp much. I did burp last night and the pain in my shoulder subsided but was back this morning. What to do??

Hi, it will come and go, take your pain killers can give you some comfort

The best healer for gas pain is time. I had a horrible time for two weeks,just only now I feel much better.

Try and walk as much as you can and just hang in there :))

Good luck

Hey I feel for you..I had that too. Sipping Water slower helps and alternating between heat and an ice pack helped me. If you can find it I've been told that anise tea helps as well.

        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
