Man, I think I'm lucky then. We just celebrated birthdays today... they had so much food. chips, cakes, soda, pot pie lasagna, pizza and I don't want any of it. I'm so happy and thankful for that.

This message is for anyone who is still throwing up, or has thrown up. As I have said before, I was blessed to not experience nausea.
When I brush my tongue, I am so careful to not go too far so I don't gag. I don't know what happened just now, but I was no where near careful. I brushed like I did before surgery and I gagged once. It was sooo painful that my eyes teared up. So I want to give HUGE kudos to everyone of you who is or has thrown up. You are some tough people. I don't know how I would have done it. You're awesome and you deserve a pat on the back!

Just wanted to share some motivation this Sunday with my strong amazing support system

That's great @@Pup if your lack of BM isn't giving you terrible gas like it did me, then you're doing great!
I just started taking my Vitamins and my alarm rings every 6 hours. I'm going back to sleep now.
ON ANOTHER NOTE:
I never realized until today that we have a very good thing going here. I've been to other forums on this app and they're littered with people who are immature and sarcastic. I mean sarcastic to the level of bullying. It's just terrible. Why be a part of any forum with that attitude?
I'm so happy to have all of you here participating.

I agree with, this is an awesome forum! It's been like a lifeline in helping me get through this. Sorry I didn't write yesterday, it was rough one, gas & nausea. I really need to have a BM & I'll be better. I'm just so bloated. I've had Miralax & will try the milk of magnesia. But, don't want to do too much & dehydrate myself when it happens. Overall, I feel good & still blessed to be going through this. But, anyone that thinks we took the easy way out needs to read our forum. This is not for the faint at heart. This forum also shows how strong we are.!

I was suffering big time from gas. I took a tablespoon of milk of magnesium. My gas is gone and I had a BM. If gas is what's keeping you from consuming liquids, you should consider some milk of magnesium. It helped me a lot! I was suffering so much. Today I managed to consume 42 ounces of liquid and I still have 2 hours before bed. Everyday it gets better.

I had the RNY done. So when your day comes, I'll be happy to answer ANY question you might have.

@@krazy kat hang in there. It took me almost two years to be on the losers bench! It is worth the wait.

Onmica...I don't have a date of yet...June 7th I have to see a pulmonary doctor and then be cleared by him...I'm hoping to have my RNY later in June but I'm looking to July so I don't get disappointed again...I thought I would go in May but then they wanted me to see pulmonary doctor to check my chest xray...scar tissue on lung...just to be sure so insurance don't red flag me. I was concerned because I was a smoker so I figure that's what caused it but I've been smoke free for 3 years on June 22nd! Would be nice to have that date for wls. You guys have a wonderful group...wishing I would have had surgery in May!

I've managed to get my Protein in but not quite there yet with the Water. I have not experienced any gas pains or nausea
Last night I wanted something fun so I grabbed a sugar free popsicle, boy was that delicious!!!!!
It's been 6 days since I've had a BM.....I guess I'm ok with that. I haven't felt the need to go yet.
Keep up the good work everyone, oh, and for the couple of you that have shat yourself .....I would take that any day over being constipated. I have not experienced Constipation on this journey but I have experienced it in the past, it's horrible.
