How is everyone doing?

I felt the same! But it does get better. Give it three weeks and you'll forget the pain as if you never felt anything.

I'm my opinion it's mostly a mental thing. Before the VSG I would eat until I'm stuffed so now waiting to feel full is so different. You took a pill? My Dr didn't allow me any pills that didn't dissolve. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yeah I don't get too upset over a pound but when I see anything over three pounds I get annoyed lol ...I know I shouldn't but after the "chop" I wasn't expecting that to be a possibility so soon Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you for the advice. Unfortunately I'm on the up and down of b/p usually it's too low...I do get dizzy spells once in a while I pay close attention to my body, if I feel my heart racing I definitely won't drink it. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I tried the 0 cal so sugar Vitaminwater I almost threw up Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Ewwww yeah those are gross. I like the blue and red Powerade zeros. Maybe some chamomile tea? Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App I'm going to look for that. I use to love the blue gatorade haven't drank it since surgery. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I use to love water...so I'm actually surprised. I try to chew on ice chips but I don't have time to always chew ice chips. For some reason when I drink water it feels so heavy like I'm drinking cement. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I agree about the juice that's why I avoid it as much as possible but when I'm nauseous it's been a lifesaver. I never tried Mio or Crystallite but I'm willing to try. I'm curious how it tastes. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I force myself to drink Water as much as I can but unfortunately I probably get only 30oz a day since I can't drink during or right after I eat I wait 30 minutes then by the time I do drink it feels and tastes awful. But I can drink juice, tea, or even coffee easily. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yess! And for me it has to be the tropical flavor my favorite it the pineapple yum! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

In my opinion feeling full is just not hungry it's not the same as before surgery. I use to eat until I was stuffed. Now I eat and try to wait a few minutes in between bites. There have been times I felt like throwing up and there were times I was surprised how much I can eat without feeling "stuck" Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
