Scared.
Unfortunately..Eventually.. I have to take my self in to the hospital to check everythings okay as I know I would advice the same if it were me , but I hate hospitals, but will go on Monday. I am not feeling so good.. I through up quite aggressively yesterday evening .. Thought everything was fine, today I had a bite of food hurt my tummy made me feel sick, smelled my coffee i was about to be sick of the smell. last night i thought i tasted blood in my throat then I forgot about it , today its hard to explain my mouth is not bleeding but there is a weird blood wiff inside of my mouth that feels like its coming from not in my mouth. It is like my chest hurts but it doesnt its inside. like my throat and further down.. on the left but it is for sure inside, not a heartattack or anything. I woke up feeling so rotten and still feel rotten. I am abit sad and scared somethings wrong , and think maybe i should wait to see if its okay, no problems swollowing. i did my googling and nothing came up. I am scared.

Rate of weight loss?
Lol prepare to be pissed of some months[emoji23] Maybe your not ready for surgery yet. High expectations can be emotionally damaging.( in my experience any way) Sent from my Swift 2 using BariatricPal mobile app

What are your water goals? And have you achieved it?
Hi I need some accountability for my water as I am never good! I was curous , what are your water goals, do you achieve it ?and is their a scedual in place you have to meet it! I had 42 ounces split into two bottles. and its only 8.30am! I said I want myself to have two bottles before breakfast, so now I am waiting for the timer to be up so I can eat I usually do not make 42 ounces for the day lol. I did this yesturday too, but woke up feeling dehydrated after drinking more than i ever drink which is odd! Feel free to keep this post updated on your water intake

Your nerve endings are not even fully connected , you are a week post op , you are still healing, the feelings will change as you heal, and move onto solid food when your plan allows you.:)

Coffee
I am allowed coffee on my plan. I used to have it so strong i poured the coffee in lol now I have one coffee very weak and it does the trick. 21 ounce of water then 21 ounce of weak coffee( It does not even barely taste like coffee its mainly water lol , then 21 ounce of water. I am comfertable with this, no issues I have a black coffee with tirani syrup 0 carb/0cal/0sugar It depends what your individual plan says.

Post Op Appetite
You are still healing, so how you are feeling might change as time goes on, head hunger is real also Just keep going as your body gets used to smaller portions, I think I am starving then eat, and think I will be able to eat more. But still only eat a small amount and feel sattisfied for a few hours

I just might give up caffeine for good
I am allowed it on my plan, and no issues with hunger, infact its 3.27pm and I have not even had anything to eat yet lol. I had coffee in the morning. I supposed it depends on the person. I agree though I only use a small amount of coffee unlike before I used to just pour it in!

Chest Pain After Eating
How much are you eating in ouces per meal time? How far out are you?

Worried at 3 weeks - easily eating...
Well your going to have to change your frame of mind and get some control. Yes we all had problems with control. But now there are consequences of over eating like causing a leak etc. As long as you are not eaten more than your plan it doesn't matter about not feeling certain thing's. This will come. Your body is still healing. This is no indication you will fail. When your on dense protein you will feel the restriction. Sent from my Swift 2 using BariatricPal mobile app

Why does it ? You dont mean coffee full of cream etc ? A black coffee is near 0 calories so why would it? Sent from my Swift 2 using BariatricPal mobile app

Chest Pain After Eating
It happens because you've eaten to much. Or to fast and you really should stop before that point. How much are u eating and how far out.I noticed this maybe upto week 5 then I figured I need to eat 2 ounces then wait.then start again Sent from my Swift 2 using BariatricPal mobile app

Just cannot eat
Hi. Shakes are not the only option. I use syntrex ice tea protein. I love making cold drinks. I skipped the soft food stage as I was skipping meals because soft food was gross so when I saw my surgeon at 5 weeks he told me to just go on to normal food. What have you tried. Mashed up chicken and mayo isn't so bad. I can never have tuna mayo again in my life lol I craved it so much I had a lot of it in puree stage. It will get easier. Keep trying.
