Got sleeved the 29th and came home yesterday. Hard to get the Protein in, but doc said focus on Water first, so that's what I'm doing.

December 29th sleever here! So far all has been good. Doing my best to work with my body on getting rid of gas. I'm burping a lot which is another good sign. Walking a lot in my apartment since it's too cold to walk outside. I have not been nauseous at all since leaving the hospital. Just having good mental positivity has helped me the last three days.

I get gas immediately,

I'm having a horrible time with things. Trying to figure out this full feeling. But I can't take in anything but maybe two bites of sf Jello and a dip of water. I'm worried I'm gonna get dehydrated. Am I ever gonna be able to put more in?!

Day 5 and still fighting with the horrid gas and Nausea.. I can't drink the liquid pain medicine or the liquid Nausea medicine

I just can't get past the taste it makes me want to hurl. I sent a text yesterday to my Doctors nurse and my doctor called

me a short time later and called me in a prescription for a nausea medicine in a pill form...I am so grateful...I didn't want to bother him on New Years Day! I wish I would have asked him for a different pain medicine but I guess I'll just tough it out and use none. I plan on

trying to drink something I can add my prilosec too and maybe that will help also...This just has been a rough few days....

I'm right there with u. I can't take much in at all. It doesn't seem to matter how long I wait in between, it still makes me sick

Has anyone found anything to put their ground-up pills in to get them down? I've tried Applesauce, and also Cream of Wheat. The pills taste awful!

I used Unjury chicken Soup to mix pills in. I prepared it than removed about 1/2 and added pills, because

i knew there was no way I would be able to drink all of it and I didn't want to waste Medicines. Does anyone

know if we are getting enough liquid how long we can go with just a bit of Protein.< /p>

Is anyone planning on returning to work on Monday? My instructions say I could (I'm an Exec Asst so almost no physical activity) but I'm finding that I need 2 naps a day. I'm trying regular Tylenol today cut it in 1/2 to see if it's the extra good stuff in the liquid meds that not only makes me red and itch but makes me loopy and sleepy.

I haven't been able to do things like read or study yet. Still scatter brained.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
