I’m scheduled for 4/8. Would love a support buddy going through pre-op liquid diet and surgery around the same time for support

Had bypass 4/8. Feeling ok, still some pain. I like premier clear, Ensure Max Protein, and Unjury. opurity chewable vitamins fro UNJURY site. Adding UNJURY flavorless to Jello, yum!

Hi ☆ GBS on April 8th here too!
How are you feeling? I'm doing ok... feeling nauseated is the worst part. Pain level is fairly low. Just bloated.

I had my gastric sleeve on 4/8. I'm still in the hospital. I can't keep anything down 😒🙄 just want to go home!

[enamio18 4]

Oh no! I hope you feel better soon so you can go home 🙏🏻

[KidaandRoux 10]

Me too! How is everything going with you?

[enamio18 4]

I’m home, still trying to adjust to the fact that 2- 3 sips of anything makes me full. Still bloated and have abdominal discomfort, but it was easier to get out of bed today. Thankfully no nausea or vomiting.

[KidaandRoux 10]

Good!! Im glad you were able to move around! How often are you sipping? They were telling me every 15 mins but,, there is no way!! My incision pain is minimal its just the dang vomiting...I hate it 😂😂 but, hopefully ill bust out this joint soon!!

[enamio18 4]

Hope soon!! They recommended 1 oz. every 15 min. It’s harder than I thought it would be! My stomach literally says NO, which is great because my problem was always eating too fast.

I just had the Gastric bypass on 4/8 as well. I am struggling with just getting Fluid down at this time but in time it will be better. My doctor called in a stronger anti nausea medication so I am hoping that will work.

Nice to meet you as well I had a hard time figuring this app out so I am sorry it took so long to get back to anybody just remember guys keep your eyes on the prize. I'm a little surprised that I'm losing 1 to 2 pounds a day I didn't think I would lose it that fast

My bypass was scheduled for April 21 and I was doing my pre-op diet... then today I got a call from the surgical scheduler, all surgeries have been cancelled due to the COVID surge here in Michigan. 😭 Honestly, I get why it had to be done but I've been waiting six months for this, I was mentally prepared, and had work time-off all arranged... I'm tempted to drown my sorrows in pizza!
