I'm 3 weeks out and struggling. Every night and when I wake up I'm throwing up. During the day everything makes my stomach upset. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Even Protein Shakes are upsetting my stomach. I haven't lost weight in a week but I feel that's because I'm bloated and retaining fluids not foods.

Contact your surgeon just to be sure everything is OK. I vomited for months after my surgery and continue to periodically. I had to go in for a barium check to be sure all was OK

This close to your surgery, any and all issues that are concerning you should be addressed to your bariatric team.

Sure we on this site can and will gladly give you our opinions based on our personal experiences, but that is all that is ---our opinion.

Give your surgeon a call tomorrow and find out the right answer for your concern.

To me, it sounds like excess stomach acid.

I hope you feel better.

Please post and let us know what your "team" has to say. Why? Because we care! :)

Prayers going up for you, my friend.

To me, it sounds like excess stomach acid and GERD. Try sleeping tonight with your head elevated.

I hope you feel better.

contact your nurse or doctor straight away, I was told vomiting can put pressure on the stitches in your stomach so needs to be resolved straight away. Are you taking anti-reflux medication?

Maybe you could be asked to be prescribed some ant-reflux medication? I still suffer with reflux 11 months out and it can sometimes make me vomit especially after I've been lying down

@@beautifully2114 - what happened?

Did you contact doctors office?

If you cannot get through you should probably go to the ER, ALWAYS better safe than sorry.

Much better still at a stall but I guess that's normal.

      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. 🤞
