Skinnyme45 5 Posted October 23, 2014 Hi Jen, All the best on your surgery day ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lovelytrl 162 Posted October 23, 2014 Today has been my hardest day since surgery. I am 6 days post op.. I just don't want anything. I try to force myself to drink fluids and Protein but it just don't want it. This is the first day I feel nausea. I have been in bed for 70% of the day and I have no energy. I hope tomorrow will be better Everyday will get better. I had s day like yours on my 7th day post op. What helped me or at least I like to think was drinking my Protein Shakes and increasing my fluids. It's tough I know because your not hungry but we must feed our body. Hope you feel better soon.

lovelytrl 162 Posted October 23, 2014 So is it safe to say we are all worried that something is going to happen and we will not be successful? I've been overweight my whole life. I've been looking at boards and people's stats, and I just feel there's no way that I'll ever get thin. I have that 'It won't happen to me, something is going to happen" feeling. Weird ! Hate this feeling tonight ! I have this same feeling I also had this feeling before surgery, thinking it wasn't going to happen. It's weird but our mind thoughts can sometimes sabotage our progress. In time this too shall pass. Praying for a new thought process with my new healthy changes for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shmeyers 240 Posted October 23, 2014 Everyone, I am definitely happy to be on the mushy diet but my doctor doesn't even want me eating potatoes or cream of wheat or any grains. He said to only eat the high Protein for my three little meals. I would love a little baked sweet potato, lol. I will have some at the holidays! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shmeyers 240 Posted October 23, 2014 I was thinking yesterday, I could have a baked sweet potato with pumpkin pie spice for dessert on thanksgiving Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmspencer 79 Posted October 23, 2014 Today has been my hardest day since surgery. I am 6 days post op.. I just don't want anything. I try to force myself to drink fluids and Protein but it just don't want it. This is the first day I feel nausea. I have been in bed for 70% of the day and I have no energy. I hope tomorrow will be better My absolute worst day so far was day 7 (if you count surgery day as day 1). I was completely lethargic, my take home pain meds ran out and I couldn't get more, everything hurt and honestly I slept most of the day and that really helped me out for Monday. You'll rally and I hope today is a better day for you too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kpar909956 87 Posted October 23, 2014 Going for my follow-up apt today Hope he takes me off Clear Liquids. 12 days of Clear liquids is enough. I haven't heard back on my pathology report on the gist tumor that was removed so I am scared and nervous. hoping he had the results today. He removed the tumor so worse case scenario we will have to watch to see if it comes back or aggressive approach is to go back in and do the gastric bypass.. I am ready to have soft foods. Finally getting tired of liquid's. Last day of solid food was Oct 3. I hope all our October sleeves are doing well. Keep me in the loop for contacts as I would love to continue to be a part this group if we should move locations. Thanks for listening and supporting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
