I am new to this and am looking for some support going through this rather difficult time. I am 2 wks post op and I am feeling kind of regretful. I know this is a life altering procedure that I thought I was prepared to handle but I can't seem to get rid of the nausea and the discomfort of the knot that sits below my chest even after just sipping Water. Any suggestions?

South Jersey here and just one week out! 10/17/17 no nausea no pain just a little sore. Heading back to work tomorrow. Sorry you're having a tough time but I think it will pass! Sip sip sip tiny sips! Also I added a 1/4 cup Apple juice to about a cup of Water. Makes it easier for me to drink.

Don't regret it! Take smaller sips, or suck on ice. I was sleeved in December and I had the same problem up to the point where I was in and out of the hospital frequently for dehydration. That stopped about after 7 weeks out. Now I'm almost a year and almost at my goal already.

You'll get through it! No worries. Feel better.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
