Oh poo. I guess I'll wait and see what they have for me at my first post op visit on Monday. I also have a seminar or something with their nutrition afterward. Then I'll have to start all these Vitamins. Or do they suggest waiting until phase two. I think the original nutritionist did. Can't recall. Doc said to wait until after this visit though. I take Biotin chewable a everyday anyway just bc I'm dreading the upcoming Hair loss.< /p>

I had it so bad I couldn't sleep at night. Dr said to try PPI's at night, and if that didn't work go to 2 a day for a couple days. then taper off. I finally slept last night... Thanks to Prilosec.

IF all else fails Gaviscon..

but beware of TUMS

Tell your doctor especially if you are not on heartburn meds. Because the acid can erode your stomach.

I had the sleeve on July 24th. Came home today on Clear Liquids for 3 more days then I add my Protein Drinks into diet till I see my doctor on aug 4 to discuss purée foods. Weighed myself prior to leaving hosp and was up 2 pounds from Thursday morning. Nurse agreed that intend all the fluids I received during my stay and gas. Lol. I also had hiatal hernia repair done and I gotta day I think that hurts more than the other right now. Feel every sip of everything going down. Including meds (liquids).

I was sleeved on July 7 2014. No complications but I was naive about the recovery time. I'm 61 and thought I would bunch back more quickly. I am up and doing housework and shopping etc. I am however, so thirsty. The sipping doesn't do it for me. I have eaten a bite or two over my full limit and suffer with that incredible chest pain. Anyone else with minor struggles?

I'm worried I can eat too much. For lunch today I had a boiled egg and a cheese stick. I did feel full afterward and my stomach did spasm some when I ate but it spasms with Water, too... How much can everyone eat at one meal?

I'm not eating solids yet but I'm 2 weeks out tomorrow and I can drink a fair amount of liquids at once which makes me worry too!!

      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.
