How far out are you? Water is the most important thing the first couple of weeks.

Like was said above....You need to get your fluids!!! Push them hard, it doesn't take very long to become dehydrated!!! I don't know how far out you are or which surgery you had but...you might want to call your Dr. It looks like you are fairly new so PLEASE be careful.

@@jharris8641 It kind of sounds like me in the beginning. See, I'm not one for pain pills unless it's serious, so wasn't taking them as often as I should, like when the pain was just beginning. This GREATLY affected my ability/desire to eat or drink. So, for a few days, I took them as prescribed, began eating/drinking and my energy increased as well!

Just food for thought......

This sounds exactly like me. I am 3 weeks out and do not want anything ever! I am struggling. Really scared of getting dehydrated. I am basically having multiple popsicles a day and I know this isn't good for me. But I feel like I absolutely cannot eat or drink. Praying this won't last.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
