  1. 5 days out and weigh more than day of surgery

    nurse16 replied to Mom2-3's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I was sleeved 1/13 down 12lbs from pre surgery weight. In addition to the 8lbs I gained in the hospital. I drove on post-op day 8 (no pain meds involved) I feel like an idiot. I got t-boned and totaled my car. My fault. It sucks. I could have died. I walked a way with stitches, bruises,and cracked ribs. #stubbornlystupid

    nurse16 replied to amandainohio's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I'm hoping to return to work then too. I was sleeved 1/13. I didn't really feel human til today. Now I have head hunger, I think I just want to chew a steak so bad. I had to stay 2 nights in the hospital.

  8. Low grade fever normal?

    nurse16 replied to Domika03's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    If it doesn't respond to Tylenol I would go to the ER. Otherwise wait go to the Dr, tomorrow they can draw labs. I honestly would not call the ER.

  10. How far out post op can you add something crunchy?

    nurse16 replied to nana2mo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    My friend started eating whatever at 1 month. I guess I would talk to the Nutritionist or Dr.

  11. 1 week

    nurse16 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Tomorrow I'm 1 week out VSG. I wish I had a lobotomy as well. The Outback commercials are killing me. Wishing I could turn my brain off. I know I need more protein. I could tear up a steak.
