  2. I was ok once i was at the Hopsital on IV and their foods like teas and Jello and broth and also icy but now the biggest challenge is trying to continue the same routine that I was on at the hospital I've been drinking so much Water and today i was starving. Even when i drank tea I was still hungry. Trying to drink 2-3 ounces is so hard it was a lot easier in the hospital. Monday they put me on Proteins right now I'm struggling I get light headed and try to walk and keep active but I get tired easily I guess it's cause I'm on this liquid diet

    I found it much easier to get the fluids in at the hospital too. At home, I worked really hard yesterday and I was only able to get 41 ounces

    Thts a great idea well today i saw my doctor she started me on Protein shakes I have to drink a shake every 2 1/2 hours and it's so hard right now I'm hungry ugh it's so hard. At least I lost 16 pounds. That would have been a struggle for me without the sleeve

    16 pounds so far is awesome!! I have lost 12 so far. How about everyone else?

    I feel like once I start eating solids I may gain a pound just because there will be food in my stomach but I'm good with that.

    Feeling great today and Water and broth is going down so much easier today than in the past. I start work again on Thursday but from home for a week instead of the office. I'm already restless. If I was off any longer I would be working on home repairs and probably hurt myself.

    I'm so scared to gain but do you get hungry today I ate lentil Soup it's so good for Iron. And tomorrow I see the nutritionist so she can start me on puree foods I can't wait.

    i lost 24 pounds so far!! congrats to all!


  3. Reading all this is making me so scared for my surgery...hope you all feel better soon!

    dont be scared the incisions dont hurt. what hurts it that i got an hernia repaired that was pushing on my diaphragm muscle. you will be ok with the sleeve. good luck to you. pain feels like u did like 100 situps kinda like soreness.


  4. I'm feeling so much better today. I think the swelling for the hernia has gone down. I'm not having painful burps when I drink anymore and I can feel and hear the air come up from My stomach. I didn't drink nearly enough yesterday. But I'm feeling good. I only slept in 2 hour increments the first night. But last night I was sleeping about 3-4 hours at a time.[/quote so happy to hear your doing better!

    Oh and I haven't tried eating yet. I'm not really hungry. Just been having some Water and some protien shake. I tried broth but that hurt so I'm going to wait a few days before I try again. I'm still having to take the zofran like clock work and the codeine liquid too.

    How is yalls swelling? Is your tummies still enlarged? I'm still bloated. I can't tell if it's swelling or the trapped gas.

    i look like im pregnant! very swollen


  5. Hello all!

    Glad we made it through. I'm in pain too, and I'm hungry I realy wanted to be one of those people who are never hungry for the first 9 months to a year.

    My barium swallow before surgery showed a small hiatel hernia, but when I asked my docs resident doctor about it, she said my doctor doesn't do hernia repair. I hope the hernia is smalll, but maybe that explaines hunger pains.

    I've drinken three little medicin cups of Water, and I will have broth snd Jello in a few minutes. Have you all eaten yet?

    Also, no drain for me either.

    i have severe pain im not able to eat anything. just ice chips im not hungry at all. if i try to sip a little bit of broth my stomach hurts severly kind of like cramping. my oxygen levels were low too. im suffering guys im on percocet every 4 hours and still feel so much pain.
    I felt the same way when I tried to eat the Jello and broth. I only at 1/3 or it, and then had pain when I did. The Lord is close to those that are suffering. I'm praying for us. Also, you can call on Him too, when you're afraid.

    Also, remember...this surgery isn't easy...but the choices we had were to remain the same or get woese...and that was painful too.

    If you really feel like something is wrong, have them call the Doctor to maybe run a scan. Did you do the swallow test yet?

    im praying for all of us. everything is ok. they just said that its spasm and thats causes pain. i was crying all night because of the pain they crush the percocets and mix with broth or jello but at soon as it hits my stomach the pain is so unbearable its for at least a minute and then goes away. Water hurts too. tried diet snapple tiny little sips and i can take it. my mom made me some homemade chicken broth and i can only do a tiny little sip almost nothing. pray for me guys


  6. Are you in the hospital, or outpatient? If you're at the hospital, can you tell them you're in too much pain. Maybe they can give you more pain medication. I'm hurting too, and scared...I think it's pretty normal.

    im still in hospital nurses said there spasm. i get 2 percocets every 4 hours plus the little med pump. pain in bad im still not able to eat just sucking on ice.

    You're not alone. I have bad pain too. I was on th Delodid pump that i pushed myself, until this afternoon. Then they changed me to Percocet every 4 hours, and tylenonl. Can they give you some Tylenol. I tried eating some broth and Jello and my stomach hurt, anf I felt sick, got bad hiccups, but didn't reallg feel full.

    It's what's to be expected....We just had our surgeries yesterday. Little bu liytle it will get better. Praying for us all.

    im in so much pain that im regreting this. its horrible.
