Shun

Hello VSG Family, I am a very sensitive person. I always have been and I have always throughout life tried not to be. However, I feel more emotional since surgery. I can't even watch TV without crying. I just had a very mild disagreement with a friend and the tears just streamed. It is unbelievable! Is this normal?

Ok I will try that. Thx!

Hello VSG Family, I am 6 days out and I restarted the full liquid today. I found a really great Greek Yogurt I enjoyed during my Pre-op diet, Fage' with the little fruit flavor contents but it has small/tiny chuncks of fruit. Any suggestions on yogurt choices I totally can't eat plain yogurt.

Baby first because children are indeed a blessing and a gift! Would be nice if you could have twins/ boy girl.

Girls hang tight. I am only 5 days out. I've lost 8 lbs since surgery but my weight had been the same for two days! So I really don't know what to say but God is no respect of person. There are many that has been successful and so will you? Does your Dr's office/clinic offer follow-up nutritionist classes and monthly support groups? If so maybe you should consider dropping in. Best Wishes and Never Give up! Keep us posted.

Thank you! Today is day two at the same weight. So I will follow your suggestion. Best Wishes!

I would just continue to shower until I go my follow-up. That is definently a question for your doctor. Be safe you don't want to infect any of your incisions.

I had my VSG Tuesday 6/19. I have developed a habit of weighing myself daily. Is this good practice or should I discipline myself to space my weight-in out?

I am so sorry that you two are having discomforting complications. I had my VSG on Tuesday the 19th and I feel good. Just a little bored with the full liquids. I do have complications with intestinal gas that hurts but my Dr. promised me if I walked I would alleviate the pain and he was correct. So when ever I start to feel bad I walk around the house. Don't worry about the 8 lbs. it's proably only fluids. Try to remain positive, for worrying is not good for your healing. Best Wishes!

It's interesting how the clear liquid diet varies. My doctor required 5 days clear which ends after Sunday 6/24. Full liquid 6/25-7/3, I 7/4 I just to start my mushy diet still without meat. I can't have meat until 7/23. I am really excited about this new journey. Best Wishes!

Good Luck to you! I just had my VSG on the 19th and the clears do suck! Thanks for posting!
