I hope you're feeling at least a little better now.
My hubs had a similar experience with the nausea after surgery. And his first night home he wondered if he'd made the best decision. By his second night home, he was feeling much better.
Two months out, his only regret is not doing it sooner.
Sending you prayers and wishes for comfort and fast healing!

That's good to know TFS, I'm being sleeved on the 21st, getting excited, not second guessing myself at all!

I can't wait for it to go away. I feel good physically, no pain at all. I am a little light headed and afraid of getting nauseaus, so I am not drinking as much as I shpuld be, although, the Crystal light is DEFINITELY going down easier than Water. Did u feel light headed in the first few days?

I felt a bit light headed but I assumed it was the meds. Just don't let yourself dehydrate. It definite gets better! Hope today was better.

I'm trying to drink 2 ozs every 10 min or so, I hope it helps. This is aweful.

Staying hydrated will definitely help with the feeling of light headedness. Plus it helps flush the anesthesia from your system. It can takes a while to get that stuff out of your body. Keep up the great work!

Just be good to yourself. Drink, rest, walk when you feel less dizzy. Maybe try drinking some Water with electrolytes in it too.

That's great!! Good job! Are you feeling a bit better?

I FEEL fine. It's just drinking that causes me a problem. Nothing tastes right, I wonder if its still from the anesthesia or the tube. I'm now drinking Powerade 0, thats better....so far. I also had almost a whole greek yogurt. I hope each day I can get more in.

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
