Calms? I’m not sure what that is. I did take a sip of some anti nausea that seemed to help for a little bit.

Sorry I am English and we call things differently. You take them on car journeys if you are car sick. On aeroplanes if the turbulence bothers you or on sea voyages. Glad you found something that works a bit. I feel for you. Keep us posted please

Don’t ever apologize for being English 😊 I think that’s awesome. I think what you’re describing is something we call dramamine. How far out are you, if you don’t mind my asking?

Today is my 12th day after surgery. Yes I heard it called Dramamine on TV

I hope you are still hanging in there! It will be worth it!! Keep drinking as much as you can and most of all, be kind to yourself. You have come so far and the finish line/start of your new life is so close.

My surgery is December 7th and I’ve been on Clear Liquids (broth, sugar free Jello, sugar free popsicles) since 11/29. My surgeon doesn’t even allow Protein Shakes pre op. I’m hungry, low energy, nauseous, dizzy, and headache…etc. I called the office and was told that this is his pre op and that ton of patients have made it through fine. I’m considering downing a Protein Shake a day just to survive until Tuesday. I’ve already lost 10 lbs.

Is this the hardest part of the process? I’m good with the changes I have to make post op, honestly can’t wait to meet me 2.0 [emoji4] but I’m struggling and crying tons because I’m so hungry and weak. Do people make it through surgery feeling like this beforehand?

My surgery is the same day as yours Protein Drinks is my lifesaver I can't believe your doctor will not let you have one im sorry but I would have had a Protein Drink

Try to drink Protein Bone Broth it counts as clear liquid and it will give you sustenance so you won’t feel dizzy. There is a Premier clear protein liquid that gives you 20 g of protein as well it will curb your hunger. Hope this helps
