I was pretty much back to pre surgery weight at my 1 week post op appointment too. I haven't weighed in a few days, since I'm coming up on the dreaded 3 week stall I have vowed to only weight once a week, I'm doing that on Thursday Morn.

because of the issues I've been having with trying to get the Protein in and trying to get the food and then I was back to my presurgery wait like four days ago when I was three days out. Because I found a scale while I was in the hospital, when I weighed myself before my surgery I was 278 the day after my surgery I was back to 289 now away today I'm at 275.

I have lost a pound per day since surgery. I can hardly keep Protein down though. But I am able to drink my Water.< /p>

I am one week out today and will reach my protein goal for the first time and will prolly make the liquids also.

Sorry Smiley the previous post was for @@walkin'onsunshine.

Hematomas (not sure of spelling) are common no big deal. They can be uncomfortable but they heal just fine.

sugar free popsicles are my new fav, my god they taste like a full course meal. I think I was really just sick of those shakes. I wonder what else tastes good, I'm going to have to get a wls recipe book like @@layknee did.

saw the doctor, he says its a hematoma. Lumpy bumpy because its where all my stretch marks are.

So glad it's nothing horrible!

Three weeks of mushy foods may be the end of me. I keep forgetting to add my Protein Powder and I'm just plain tired of the mush. Feeling crabby and sorry for myself today.

I so understand. I can't wait until 4 weeks out when I can have some food to actually chew.

I slept with a pillow on my side that helped with the abdominal pain.

same with me. And I was having some chest pain. One suggestion that was given to me was to prop yourself with pillows keep you from turning over while you sleep. And try to use support when getting off the couch.

      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.
