micci_micci33 12 Posted November 16, 2018 Wow! Definitely didn’t think I’d get so much encouragement. I genuinely feel SO much better. I keep telling myself I’ve got 5 hrs to finish my last 11oz Protein Shake and 8 more oz of Fluid for me to make my goal fluid intake.. cause it’s lights out at 9pm pacific time.. I’m so tired 😴 1 Wanda247 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackiesays 11 Posted November 17, 2018 I feel you. I had my vsg surgery the day before you (11/13) and I'm missing texture. I'm going crazy at home not doing anything. I've never been the type to netflix binge either. I sat through six episodes of Narcos today before I called it quits. I think I zoned out at episode 3 lol. I get feelings of anxiety and restlessness as I feel stuck in my home. Things will get better for us! 2 princessjasmenn and micci_micci33 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Martha88 30 Posted November 17, 2018 I had my VSG on Tuesday Nov 13th and I had an emotional meltdown over "dinner"My mouth wanted something with texture. I quickly found myself running to the ladies room in tears regretting the whole decision.HELP! When will the yuck go away?!Sent from my SM-G930V using BariatricPal mobile app 1 micci_micci33 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BostonWLKC 807 Posted November 17, 2018 You’ll be just fine! It gets way easier around day 5-7! Anything makes you feel meh at that stage — get up and move a lot- it helps. Definitely try hot liquids- I couldn’t do cold for a while. Good luck. 2 micci_micci33 and FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SleevedBelle25 9 Posted November 17, 2018 You guys think going back to work 1 week post-op is too soon? I have a desk job so definitely don’t do any strenuous work. I can walk whenever I please, so that’s not a problem.I didn't have a problem at all but we all heal differently.

lulu06 19 Posted November 24, 2018 I just finished posting on another thread about being discouraged and still having discomfort and pain when drinking liquids. Thinking maybe I made a mistake having this surgery. Then I see this thread and I read all of the comments and I'm sitting here at 2am smiling and thinking ok maybe not. Thanks for letting me know I'm not alone. 3 rs, micci_micci33 and Hrsnjs reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had my surgery (sleeve) on Wednesday 11/14 and I’m a total wuss when it comes to pain and discomfort and am regretting it so bad right now. It hurts to drink anything. I’m nauseous. I don’t mind the stomach soreness much (just feel like I did a bunch of ab crunches). I’m supposed to be drinking my Protein Shakes but I’m scared to even try lol sucking on the popsicles give me cramps and I know this will “pass” but I keep thinking, what if it doesn’t. I feel stupid for typing this Stay strong. It sucks early on but I promise you that I will be worth it 2 FluffyChix and micci_micci33 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my SM-N960U using BariatricPal mobile appI’m doing so much better. However, I had a very bad experience with Constipation this morning to the point I almost passed out due to the unbearable pain. I didn’t drink any Protein today because I’m so scared of another episode. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
