Hey it's good to hear things are getting better fit everyone. I'm still in the clear liquid diet until Tuesday then poured foods. I can't wait.

Jennolsen I tried the Isopure , I ended up liking the cocituen a lot better so I'm supplementing my broth meals with that.

Still get tired but was able to get out of the house a couple of times. In California it's really hot right now so it's nice to get dress hair in the evening.

So anyone having bathroom problems sense surgery. I seem to only be having diarrhea and in very small amounts. I pee all the time. I know there isn't really anything in there to make a bm but I hate the diarrhea and I'm always afraid I'll be sick if I fart. This sucks.

Diarrhea here too. Same fears about accidents. I have read that when solids start this will get better. That isn't until a little over a week for me, don't know about you.

Yes, diarrhea here too. I didn't have a full bm until my 5 th day post op. That worried me. I added Fiber to my broths and that worked a little. I start nudge foods today. In excited that I can have yogurt.

9 days! I got to move to the next step this afternoon. I had a few tablespoons of yogurt for lunch and 4 oz. of Protein Shake for dinner. Totaled a whopping 11.5 grams of Protein. With a week of clears and now this I am sure I will be bald in a few months. My NUT didn't stress getting in protein at all. I'm a little concerned at how different all of the recommendations are from one doctor to another. Guess I should of asked more questions. I really thought I wanted to eat but my tummy hasn't felt quite right all day. Guess it just takes time.

      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.
