Thinking about you, too. I hope your time between now and surgery is as peaceful as possible. It really is worth all the trouble we go to to get there.

Very best.

I was sleeved 2 days ago and I feel like crap! I feel nauseous and the medicine the doctor gave me does not help nausea . I'm watching TV and all these commercials of food make me sick to my stomach. and I'm so sensitive to any smell in My Home makes me want to throw up. I wonder if this is normal? I wonder if I did the right thing.# feeling scared right now

I dry heaved for almost 2 days after surgery, its a combo of the anesthesia, pain meds and the trauma your tummy just endured. Once home I could smell everything so strongly, even things my husband ate just REEKED on his breath. This issue passed very quickly for me and I feel totally back to normal as far as things like that go. It is scary because we can never really know what to expect, but I can tell you that I am only 5 weeks out and I wouldn't change anything so far. It is a price to pay for sure, BUT the reward is great

Congrats & best of luck to you!

The first week for sure is no cake walk.

Nothing you've described sounds out of the ordinary for many people.

But ... and this is a good but ... you've had the courage to do this. And my strong bet is that sooner than you could imagine you're going to be enjoying an exponentially better life. Honestly, these next months will go so fast you won't believe it.

And what your life will be like then is nothing like what you're feeling right now.

Right now, you're just recovering from major surgery. So nap all you can. Drink all the Water you can. Take your meds. Follow your surgeon's instructions. Take it a day at a time. Then a week. Then a month ....

I did the 2wk liquid and for me it wasn't so bad, but then I was scheduled and another week on liquids? ???. Then post op more liquid without food, yea it is tough. Our 2wk diet was 2 shakes and a lite dinner. We have to really change our eating habits or else we won't be sucessful. I worry about gaining so hopefully that will help not eat out of habit. And so the journey begins.....☺

Lisa maybe do the 2 shakes and a lite low fat dinner. Good luck u can do it!

I do not have to do the pre-op until three days before surgery as I am a low BMI'er. I plan to actually do it for 10 days. It's these days before that I am fighting for control. I start out the day with conviction but give in to temptation and binge for a few hours and then rein it back in before evening. I usually do well when it comes down to the wire. And look forward to the additional tool the surgery will be to help maintain the new habits I will develop.
