Oh Synlee I'm so sorry. You'll have to go in soon as you'll be rather dehydrated by now. Plus they can run some tests, some kind of scan would be good to see if anything looks not quite right. Remind me what WLS you had? I wish I could make all this disappear for you. I'm hoping Loot chimes in, I saw them post elsewhere with similar issues, you're not alone. Big hugs to you.

Well I spent Mother's day in Local ER for iv fluids... and now today I'm back at Hospital where I had surgery. Had CT no leaks, so that's good.. but still can't keep anything down. Still waiting on rest of test. Hope all is going well for everyone. Hugs

May 3rd VSG for me. 11 days post op. So close to puree diet.

Yes! I can almost taste the baby food consistency chicken. 😋 My RNY was May 1st.

Hi Ladies, my surgery is May 22. My first doctors visit was only 2 months ago (March 23rd). I had no idea that it would be this quick. Ish just got real…now I’m nervous as heck! I went to my pre-surgical class today. I start my 1-week liquid diet tomorrow. 🙏🏽 😊

My surgery was yesterday and I am on my way home now. Just make sure to walk and get that gas gone!

How are you feeling? Which surgery did you have?

Had my RNY Thursday. I can’t believe how pleasantly surprised I am at the lack of pain! I feel so blessed. I had Tylenol and pain meds the first two days and haven’t needed anything since. The gas is ridiculous, but moving really does help. I was terribly weak yesterday, but after starting the twice daily Protein Shakes, I feel human again. My hope and prayer for all of you is to have the same outcome!! I’m so excited for the future!!

Surgeons office called me AGAIN to change my surgery to June 7th. Not happy since I’ve been strict dieting, but at least I’ll lose more weight by surgery. Good luck to all of those getting surgery this month!!!

[rolawre 16]

@AmandaD. Exactly & you're learning more discipline....it will all work for your good!

Had my surgery May 10th, currently 5 days post op & it’s been alittle rough. How is everyone else post op who had a May surgery?

Why is it rough? I had mine the 11th and I’m doing great. Haven’t used pain meds. Haven’t had much pain either. I walk a lot. The only thing I can say is today it was hard to meet my Protein goal. I was not hungry really. And I burp a lot lol. But gasx helps.

I’m just alittle sore from the incisions. Also it’s really hard to consume the 60oz of liquids, Water is kind of hard to go down. I also can’t meet my Protein goal, the consistency doesn’t sit well. I burp a lot as well lol. How is your liquid diet going? I think I’m struggling more mentally than physically.
