rbaertsch 34 Posted December 22, 2016 I had mine 12/19! Some pain and nausea still. I think it's gas pain. I'm getting my fluids in, but have to be very careful about the size of my sips and waiting in between sips. Absolutely no hunger. I'm kind of nervous about eating again. The liquid diet feels like a nice safe space for now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nursemichelle7 14 Posted December 22, 2016 I also had surgery on 12/20. Doing good with liquids. food looks good to me but I don't crave it. Gas pains are killing me. Didn't sleep well last because of the gas getting trapped. Did a lot of walking today and relieved a lot of the pain.

DopeIP 9 Posted December 22, 2016 Yea I tried to sleep last night I went from couch to bed back to couch to just up pacing to get the gas to go away. I just left the store because the Protein drink I got was HORRIBLE so o opted for muscle milk hopefully that's better. But the walk around the store left me tired think to much walking. Laying down now to rest and sip. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rbaertsch 34 Posted December 23, 2016 It's so nice to find the two of you with our dates so close together! I hear you on the gas pains. I'm having the same issues. I'm finding that room temp Water is easier than cold. Sent from my LG-H810 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nursemichelle7 14 Posted December 23, 2016 It's all worth it in the end. I'm only two days post op and I am a sissy when it comes to pain but you've got to push through the pain. Me and 2 others had the surgery on Tuesday by the same doctor. I got to go home yesterday because I was up and walking and do things for myself. The other ladies did not want to get up so they had to stay another day. I'm not going to lie it is painful but not unbearable! We can all do this people!

rbaertsch 34 Posted December 23, 2016 You're a trooper, girl! I had a hard time on days two and three. Vomiting and dizzy. It was rough. Gets better every day though. Tomorrow, I'm going to the gym to walk. Too cold outside! Sent from my LG-H810 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nursemichelle7 14 Posted December 23, 2016 I live in Mississippi so it's nice and warm outside. I walked a lot today. Also I'm 21, and never had a surgery before so my body is healing pretty fast. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
