So I had a post a little bit ago stating foods weren't tasting right to me. It progressed to the point where even I can't tolerate a popsicle! I have been sipping on Water, though. I haven't eaten in about three days now and am extremely nauseated. I vomited today, so I reached out to my surgeon. He is having me sip on hot tea and water for now and I am to go into the hospital tomorrow via his orders. I am nervous because I don't want to stay another night in a hospital (they were very good to me). Has anyone been through this? Needing encouragement right now :unsure:

Take a deep breath, my friend and do what you have to do.

Try to let go what you can't control and give over to your surgeon. He/she will be able to get you on the right path. Have faith.

Please, post often. We care.

Prayers going up for you.

Went to the doctor today. I was given another nausea medicine to pair with the Zofran. They also ran a couple labs on me and I was sent to their infusion center. They gave me fluids for about three hours and I did feel better. I managed so sip a little Soup for dinner and did not get sick...yay!

I'm having problems getting enough fluids and Protein. My taste changed after my surgery, I didn't expect that. Protein Shakes, smoothies make me very nauseated. I can sip popsicles. Any advice appreciated.

My doctors gave me a combination of medicines and it helped. How are you with Water?

Oddly enough, Water tastes funny. I'm only going to the bathroom 1-2 Times daily and it's not much. I'm afraid I'm getting dehydrated. I'm sipping as much as I can. Usually 30oz max. Suggestions appreciated.

keep sipping the popsicles and Water as much as you can. KEEP SIPPING.

In the morning, call your surgeon's office and let them know the trouble you are having. They will be able to guide you over this rough bump.

Just prepare yourself to have IV fluids if you can't get enough fluids in. Doing so will actually make you feel a great deal better. Is it pleasant? no. Does it help? Hell, yeah!

Let us know how you're doing.

Prayers going up for you!

I appreciate your answer so much! I was kind of guessing about the IV. My skin is getting dry as well. I guess I'll call the office in the morning.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
