Yes I had buyers remorse my first 2wks out but now I am getting over it ..

@@cparni are you taking gas x ? that helped me out alot. I would also called the doctor and talk to him about the pain.. also, do you have any pain meds?

@@MojoCAMI they only sent me home with pain mess that's it I do have omperazole (prolsic) misspelled sorry. The pill form didn't go down to good so I called for liquid instead my doctor wants to see me at 2pm today.

@@MojoCAMI thanks for responding and encouragement, I just feel so miserable , I am trying to get my protein in but I find it hard when I feel so dehydrated or shall I say dry mouth so all I want to do is eat Popsicles and ice chips. When was you able to drink without sipping

It's been awhile since I posted here but here my story, I was sleeved on 11/19 the day of surgery I slept most of the day but my tummy was hungry like crazy, every time I got up to use the bathroom I was dry heaving and vomiting until I got zofran utu my tummy still wasn't having that it wanted food. I was nothing by mouth until the next day, I couldn't even have ice chips. The next day I was given pain meds which I barely had any pain and nausea medicine before going home I was given my BP meds and protonix. I had to drink 30mL of Water every hour until lunch came. I had broth. Gelotein decaf tea and some Protein but I only responded to the Gelotein. So it seems like I was find holding down everything but my tummy was still demanding something else to eat. I walked the halls and then was released home. Once home I was still hungry and drinking 30mL every hour, drink broth and I continue to dry heave and brink up what my tummy didn't like. It went on like this for another day. Yesterday I was able to do full liquids, the first day I tried pudding it shut up for a minute and I was cool the second day it rejected it. Yesterday I tried baby food that I can have as long as it was cooked and thin liquid form. Well let me tell you how I ate the whole bottle over a period of time. My tummy gets hungry every 4 hours. So my last scoop my stomach was not happy with, I thought it was gas pains so I figured I would walk it off in walmart Wrong! !, it continue to hurt. So when I got home a did a gas x strip didn't help so I did some mirlax because now I feel constipated tmi still nothing in return but a sore hungry tummy and dry mouth. I am to scared to eat so I continue to do my ice chips and went to be miserable. This morning I was awaken by really bad heartburn and dry mouth, so I am sitting at my table at 4:30am eating sf Jello and drinking Powerade zero. Is anyone able to drink a lot more liquids at one time inside of sipping? Sorry about the long post.

@@Vsgfit4life thank you I eat less than 1400 calories a day sometimes I don't make over a 1000 but I am working on it.. I will keep you posted

@@pindoctor I was thinking to slow down with my exercises I want to eat a little off the diet but I can't my NUT looks at everything I eat .

I went to see my surgeon on Thursday and I was told I had to maintain my wait at 190lbs , I am 5lbs away!!! How am I supposed to do that when I still have 3 months of nutrition classes left??? I told the Nut but she said I could go down to 185lbs. I don't want to get denied so I rather stay a 190lbs. What do you do to maintain your weight?
