I had surgery this last Tuesday and have been really sick ever since. I had the normal soreness but that has left for the most part. However, ever since the surgery I have been extremely nauseated. I haven't been throwing up but I have been right up to it. I have to force myself to eat because I know I have too otherwise I would never eat I feel so bad (liquids only of course). Is this pretty much normal considering the surgery or do I need to be worried? On the good news I've lost 30 lbs just from the pre-op diet and another 10 this week! What a way to jump start my new life!

Believe me I can relate. I am 11 days into my liquid diet (surgery is next Tuesday!) and I can honestly say this is the hardest thing I have ever done. The thing you have to remember though that this isn't forever and it will make your surgery go much smoother. Eat what the doc told you to, get your mind on other things during the day as well. Remember for most of us food is our addiction of choice and just stopping your addiction there are usually withdrawals, get through them and get ready for the surgery and a new life!!!

After a brief delay with medical problems my surgery has finally been reschduled to Feb 1st!!!!!! I went a week into my liquid diet last time then found out I had blood clots. Started my diet again yesterday (which sucks by the way) and will be on the table that morning!!!

I'm set for Dec.16th. Can't wait for the surgery, little nervous about the pre-op diet!

Don't feel bad...My psyc eval all she wanted to talk about was bounderies and wanted me to get to the root of why I eat so much and am so big. I still don't fully understand the purpose of a psyc eval if this is all they are going to talk about!
