  1. I just walked a half block, getting water in better, and 3/4 of a protein shake. Thats more than i had ALL DAY yesterday and it's only 11:30 am Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  2. I have been doing better today. I have been forcing the water, and I started a protein shake. It might take me a long time, but I'll get it down!!! Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  3. I'm trying to drink 2 ozs every 10 min or so, I hope it helps. This is aweful. Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  4. I've been using crystal light, but even that is hard. I think I'm going to ask about Powerade. I'm starting to feel weak, I assume from not drinking Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  5. I was never a big water drinker, but since my surgery (2 days ago) I can't even tbink about drinking it. Crystal light is a little better. I think I'm going to talk to the visiting nurse about Powerade 0 tom. I am not drinking much at all. Broth, popsicles, yogurt, pudding all go in fine, but liquids...no way! I also read that ppl use gas x strips, I can't find them ANYWHERE, are the desolving ones ok? Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  6. That's what I keep hearing. Thank you Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  7. I don't have any gas "pain" just gurggling Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  8. I do have zolfran, but only took it twice. Does walking help with the nausea? Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  9. I can't wait for it to go away. I feel good physically, no pain at all. I am a little light headed and afraid of getting nauseaus, so I am not drinking as much as I shpuld be, although, the Crystal light is DEFINITELY going down easier than water. Did u feel light headed in the first few days? Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  10. It's only happened twice, and I feel it when it's coming on. I have to find SOMETHING I can drink, I don't want to go back to the hosp for dehydration Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  11. Ugh!!! 5 days! I hope it's not longer! Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  12. Today is worse. I have been dry heaving, nauseaus and just miserable. How long does the swelling last? I hope once it goes down, maybe things will be easier. Good luck to you! Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  13. Has the nausea stopped? I was just sleeved yesterday and the nausea started today. If that stops, I'll be ok Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  14. I was sleeved yesterday, I did great in the hospital with water, popsicles &broth. Now that I'm home, I'm gagging on water or even nothing! I am not getting much in at all. Just popsicles. I just got home this afternoon. I feel like I'm already starting to regret it, but I have read that's common. I hope this gets better!!!! Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  15. Today has actually been HARDER! I had my first real nausea episode, it was fast but bad. I'm having problems with water, Only getting popsicles in. I hope it gets better. I'm ALREADY having a little buyers remorse! Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  16. I'm hoping once I'm home and doing the same thing it will pass. Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  17. I asked the nurse, she thinks so too. My brain knows I havent eaten for the last week, so I SHOULD be hungry. It stinks because I feel like I'm STARVING! Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  18. I had something earlier and a patch behind my ear. He prescribed Omneprezerole (spelling) for when I go home. Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  19. I am currently still in the hospital, I had my sleeve surgery this morning...I am having NO problems getting in water, popsicles, broth. AND I'm kinda wondering WHY have I felt hungry all day???? What's going on? Is it REALLY HUNGER??? Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  20. Well, everything went much better than I anticipated. Other than a small area of gas pain, I am great! No nausea or vomiting. I actually stopped myself from drinking tge broth in case it was too much. No problem with water, had a popsicle. Now just waiting to go home tomorrow. I had myself all worried for nothing. Weird thing though, I am not sure if I feel hungry or is that what they call "head hunger?" Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
  21. I'm so scared, I almost cancelled! My family put me in the car and are driving me there now. I keep thinking...What if this is the wrong decision? Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app
