Has Anyone had complications after surgery? I am 5days post op and can not keep anything down to save my life. I threw up twice today and just feel weak, my nurse said I might have to go back to the hospital to get rehydrated. Has anyone experience anything like this?

Ok maybe it's just me but I am still trying to figure out when I get full. My stomach does this rumbling and I get this sick feeling, thinking ok I must be hungry. I make my shake take sip after sip for like 30mins and still rumbling. How the heck do I know when I'm full. I do not want to over drink my shake cause I got to have my first dumping secession last night and that was not fun at all! Please help me out, I feel like I'm sick to my stomach all the time now.

Yea I'm getting back to my protein cause its weird....having a regular stomach I knew when I was hungry and knew when I was full because I would over eat. Having a smaller stomach I don't want to test the waters and over eat/drink because of dumping and can't tell if I'm hungry cause I eat/drink every 15mins.

Just had my first dumping and that pressure is horrible! Just cause I had cream of wheat ugh hate it, but lesson learned! HW 270lbs SW 258lbs April 15 2013 and Goal Weight 170

That's awesome I am so ready for the first month to be over and I am barely 4 day post op! Lol HW 270lbs SW 258lbs Goal Weight 170

Oh ok, yeah I get that....they found a hiatus hernia on top my stomach so I am guessin that is why I have a lot of incisions. I am feeling ok, feeling nauseous here and there and still skeptical on what to eat for my post op liquid diet. I would rather just not eat anything so I don't get sick but I know I need to put something in my stomach. I am taking each day with baby's steps. Thank you so much for asking? When did you have your surgery? HW 270lbs SW 258lbs Goal Weight 170

How many incisions did they do on your stomach? I thought it was suppose to be four and I counted 6 total. Two on my left side, two on my right side, one under my breast bone And one in the belly button. Is this normal or has anyone else had more than 4 incisions? HW 270lbs SW 258lbs Goal Weight 170

Just get tons of rest and walk when you can....and congrats on joining the loser bench

Thanks, that is what I have been doing just sipping a little at a time. I guess I will have to wait and see, and get the full feeling and knowing when to stop I appreciate it thanks again I

Hi Everyone I am 4 days post op and feeling a lot better everyday. I have a question, so I was put on a liquid diet for two weeks, I have just been eating jello and drinking water. I am taking sips and eating 1oz of jello every 15 mins. And I am just trying to figure out my limits but don't want to go over board and start dumping. How much are you all eating or drinking and how do you know when to stop?

That's awesome! How much weight have you lost during post op so far and are you still sore?

Good Luck! ,you will do great!!

Haha yup, I even told my doctor that they need a different flavor drink for the xray shot. And it should taste something like the pill. He just laughed and said he will look into it.

Aren't those good, lol I enjoyed those a lot cause they had a good freshness to them. But it sure did taste a lot better than that. Drink we had to take to see if there was any leaks. It was horrible. Lol
